Eamonn Holmes and Louise Court,
the editor of Cosmopolitan magazine, discuss the headline in the Daily
Express - 'Madeleine 'Spotted in Spain''
Eamonn Holmes:
And we are going to start Louise, front page headline, and I hope this
is true, there is some foundation to this. This is the front page of the
Express Madeleine Spotted in Spain we re coming up to the 5th
Anniversary of disappearance of young Madeleine McCann.
Louise Court:
I think it's the point you've made Eammon I hope it's true. I mean
there's supposedly been this tip-off that a girl looking like Madeleine
has been spotted in Nerja the Costa del Sol.
Eamonn Holmes:
Nerja would be about 270 miles, if you went right across the coast of
Spain and Portugal, away from where she was abducted in Lagos.
Louise Court:
And it must be totally the news that her parents want to hear. But I
just also wonder how they must feel because, you know, your hopes are
lifted and, you know, for them to be dashed again. It's just unbearable.
Eamonn Holmes:
But you see, part of me just doubts whether this is true or not, or is
it about just keeping the awareness, keeping the profile, keeping us all
thinking about it? The parents may be complicit in this, I don't know,
and encouraging these stories and keeping them out just to keep people
aware. I found myself last week amazingly in Lagos, and then you do that
thing - Where was the hotel? Where was the church they went to?
Whatever. And you know a beautiful small place and you just wonder how
it could have happened? But it is right that we all should be aware of
this and we only hope there is some truth in that.
Louise Court:
But you always seem to get these sightings in the Mediterreanean and in
in these coastal towns. And you think, well if you had taken her you
would think that you wouldn't have... you know, why would she only be
spotted in those places.
Eamonn Holmes:
Well, sometimes it's all very close to home |
