The DJ on our local radio station just came out with this remark: "The headline to watch out for tomorrow - the McCanns are in talks to make a film about Madeleine's disappearance. Yes, a film as in the type that you go and see at the cinema. They're in talks with some big producers to make the film, to raise money for their campaign." Gonna be very interested to see if that proves to be true or not, especially given that there was word a few months ago that they were using the campaign money to pay their mortgage and things like that - I'm sure I recall that being discussed quite extensively on this site, in fact. Am I the only one who finds that to be kinda wrong, regardless of where the money goes, though?

They are getting absolutely ridiculous now. What a stupid idea. What are they raising money for!? The police will keep investigating anyway and their best chance is to keep her in the public eye throughout Europe and North Africa in case someone sees her. You don't need masses of money to do that.
Sad thing is that the chances of her being alive now are virtually nothing, and the campaign has to wind down eventually...they just have to remind people every now and then that their daughter is still missing.
Its not as if they are short of money anyway. They have a big house not a million miles away from me and Gerry is a well paid consultant at a local hospital.
Plus no body knows what happens...how would they make a film out of it!?

Neko it's all over the front pages of the Evening Standard, London Paper and London Lite. I think it's true, I think it's sick, and in a funny way I almost hope the Portuguese Police do put out a warrant for the parents' arrest! *Knee duly jerked!*

It there is any truth in this then it is outrageous, the McCanns are sick. Where is there decency, from day one they have exploited their daughters dissapearance.
If they did use the fund money to pay their mortgage then the charity will be investigated and struct off by the Charity Commission, one of the primary rules of being a charity trustee is than you can not benefit personally from your activities!

I wouldnt* I can see it being a mix of do-gooders who're eager to hand over their money for the charitable side, and the kind of people who thrive off Big Brother, celebrity gossip columns, the latest Britney Spears revelations and so forth. I don't mean to include the BB fans on here in that; I'm talking about the people who're obsessed with all things in that area!
