'Is the foreign press now being used to put out extremely old stories?'
Good point Cherry Blossom.
The PJ, apparently having given SY & the MBM a bollocking for leaking/printing rubbish, resulting in the recent lack of headlines, maybe this is the new pink alternative, which they know will get back to the UK and can open up reporting of 'the such and such Greek/Spanish/Thai etc paper reports that......' so it's not their fault.

It's often the case that when searching old press reports, the articles found have the current date.
Fwiw, as far as I'm aware Mark Warner do not offer holidays to Crete and Catriona Baker was shipped off to San Agostino which is in the Peloponnese.

Could be right Doug D, If they do then we will all know where the story came from, pure spin! Shame the hotel didn't think to keep the material from the CCTV, but then why should they?

Re: The Greek Police are investigating whether Madeleine McCann may be located at the hotel "Gouves", Crete, Greece.
I'm confused. Although it's an old story, has it been dusted off and reprinted/published online recently or has it just been pulled up by a search engine?
If it has been recycled recently, could the reporting be a result of the requests for help said to have been made by SY to a number of European countries ie closing off another (far fetched) line of enquiry?
If so, we'd best steel ourselves for another cycle of (old) sightings across the world and Clarrie will no doubt get dizzy with all his twizzing.

Good point about foreign press Cherry Blossom
Ridiculous as ever. Almost any girl between the ages of 9 and 12 could be Maddie, remember the Asian one? And was it Clarence or Dave Edgar who said, she may have had her hair cut and be disguised as a boy. The scope is now wider still as the coloboma was just a fleck.
I don't wish to be unkind, but even the child's own mother would be hard pushed to recognise now if she were still alive. I do wonder what it is that convinces complete strangers (presumably sane) to contact the authorities to say they are certain they have seen the missing Madeleine. The age progression picture resembles at least 60% of white girls in that age range. Any loon can point the finger at any child.
I once read the ramblings of one sightor (or is it sightee?) who was convinced the child he saw was Madeleine on the basis of her nose. I know there are people on the net who study noses to the extent that they can differentiate between the noses of children between the ages of 3 and 10, but its a pretty specialised subject and probably no more than a handful of experts worldwide. That one stumbled upon the most highly published missing child in the world was remarkable.
Quite funny that they are getting the stories through via the foreign press, they just can't help themselves can they!

I wonder who they got their info from because I was under the impression the Portugese authorities presumed she was dead or had died in apt 5a and also if the Greek authorities had been asked to check this out more than once and didn't.... Do they believe she is alive? Obviously this story is old and someone on TM probably contacted the..... Wait...Thats not how they roll.

Yes.
...
On the day Madeleine disappeared Ms Baker had spent nearly six hours with the toddler, along with five other children aged between three and five.
...
Madeleine and her two-year-old twin siblings, Sean and Amelie, were placed in the resort's Kids Club, where Ms Baker worked, at around 10am while their parents took a stroll before collecting them at 12.30pm for lunch back at the apartment.
...
Ms Baker was not with the McCanns when the alarm was sounded over Madeleine's disappearance just before 10pm.However, she joined the search shortly after 11pm after completing her duties as a night babysitter.
Mark Warner did not return Ms Baker to Portugal from Greece and she has since left the company. She is now a live-in nanny looking after three children. Her location is being withheld on the request of the McCanns.
Ms Baker refused to comment about the investigation into Madeleine's disappearance, adding: 'I don't want to go through it again.'

She may remain in Greece, but where?

Just out of interest in reply to your querying if Ms Baker remains in Greece still (whatever relevance it might or might not have)...
Ms Baker had been living in New York last time I found any info about her. I suppose this was about a year and a half ago. She seemed to be living the glamorous party lifestyle, and indeed there were various very glamorous photos of the woman. I'm not someone to say the young lady was not good looking in Praia da Luz, though she seemed to come across as a sensible, mature kind of au pair, rather than the party type. Things did seem to have changed a lot there, she was very glamorous in her NY photos - very shiny style mag so (that kind of life, the groups of the style mag obsessed, it seemed to me) and was going out to party a lot.
I know this because I happened to come across Ms. Baker's wide open Facebook account, not locked to Facebook friends (or even just for Facebook members). Anyone could access her account's photos and timeline and connection and so on.
I haven't checked if it's still there. I just came across it once, it was open to all, and there was no doubt at all this was the same Ms. Baker, the PdL nanny of Madeleine McCann. I was questioning why I was looking at someone's personal site, whom I don't know but it wasn't private, and it was interesting to find this out. Whatever happened, life goes on and you can't stop that. Ms. Baker looked happy, if wildly transformed, though with the kind of smiles at those parties, who knows if they mean happy or "fit in"?!
Anyway it enabled me to answer your question. I guess Ms Baker is still being a more glamorous version of the nanny who hit the 2007 headlines, in New York. Whether relevant or not. I can't see that her being in New York could be especially relevant.
I did always think there was something fishy about a lot of the set up in PdL, though. With the keys to apartments missing and probably copied, it's not too much to wonder who was staying tight lipped and about what. Who had blind eyes to underhand relations happening in the Ocean Club, from nannies to restaurant staff to anyone. Not to suspect involvement per se, but wonder what any might have had some vague knowledge of and, for whatever reason, not say. I still find it strange that no-one knows anything. Is it just the wish to hush up something for the sake of tourism and the economy - which the police have been doing - or were there further levels of secrecy?
