Tannerman or Totman or Crechman or McCannman - take yer pick. It's ripe for the plucking.

You forgot Mitchell and Edgars' Victoria Beckham lookalike.

Is it really that difficult to distinguish between, the faceless man, Tannerman. Murat, Victoria Beckham and Julian Totman?

And what happened to the guy who, according to Andy Redwood, turned up after 6 years with both his own and his daughters clothing, that they were wearing that night?
...shouldn't there be a tractor there somewhere?

Yes, and a white van, and another vehicle going down the street the wrong way or speeding or something.

Don't forget all the other suspects that were lurking around the area between 9 and 10 on the evening on May 3rd. Paedophiles, gypsies, disgruntled maids, cleaners, care takers, people lurking under the stairway, teenagers out for a cigarette. It must have been buzzing.

Right - it's official, whitevanman it is !

I'll wager there is not one single legitimate sighting over the years, even if not orchestrated by team McCann, you bet the witnesses were out for money, like the reward on offer by Murdoch's News of the World.

It's all a diversion, just like this latest Totman - he's halfway there before you start. Totmanman ?

As an aside, I wonder if Sonia Poulton ever tried to interview Andy Redwood.

So now he has been eliminated by Grange a long time ago, and we now know exactly who he is . . .

. . why is he still on the Find Madeleine website ? ? ? ?

Two children - one two year old girl and one three year old boy. Did the Totman couple only dump one child at the night crèche on the night of 3rd May?

From Jane Tanners statement of 10 May 2007

'....... Her husband ROB, MO and DP left the beach a little earlier they having gone to the tennis courts, it was the night of the men's tennis. When she, together with the friends and children, returned from the beach, at 18h20, they went to the tennis courts having seen that all the men, including GM, were on the court. They stayed to talk to them them for about 20/30 minutes .........'

So Jane Tanner spent 20 - 30 mins at the side of the court watching Julian Totman play tennis on 3 rd May, and when she saw him again, 2 hours later, she didn't recognise him?

Jane nearly tripped up in her rogatory interview before hastily improvising. Even she was forced to acknowledge that "Juian Totman" wouldn't have been walking in the direction she claimed if he had been bringing his child back from creche.

" And also you said that, you know, your immediate assumption or not probably even thought about it that much at the time, but you thought he might have been carrying a child home from the crèche?”
Reply    “Yeah, well I think you did see people, I mean, not that late at night, and, again, that should have made me think more, but especially sort of, you know, earlier on you’d see them carrying children in pyjamas to the, the crèche where you can leave them at night and then pick them up again”.

4078    “Would that fit in with the direction he had come from?”
Reply    “Well, again, no. Well, it would have been, I mean, at that time, you would of more expected him to be going the other way, coming back from the crèche maybe. But he could have gone, if he’d have gone that way and then cut down, there is a way you could have cut down to the crèche, going that way, so.."

i wonder how Dr. Totman will get out of this bind. He can hardly now claim he was dropping his child TO creche when she "saw" him at 9.10-15pm. As Verdi has pointed out where was 3 year old William Totman while daddy was marching about with his little sister in her bare feet and pyjamas so late on such a cold night that Jane needed to borrow her hubby's fleece and the wind was whooshing the McCanns' curtains.

by Crackfox 08.05.18 8:29

Just to add to the already rapidly thickening plot but KM identifies Julian T in her May 6 statement as the man GM was playing tennis with after his lesson and before rest of group arrived.

The lesson ended an hour afterwards, close to 4:30PM. Gerry continued playing tennis with a guest called Jxxxxn who belonged to his tennis group, while she went for a jog along the beach, for around half an hour. She saw the others of the group, children and grownups

by suzyjohnson 08.05.18 8:32

If Dr Totman was Tannerman, then the creche records should show exactly what time his children were collected from the night creche, which should correlate with Jane Tanner's sighting at 9.15 pm.

by skyrocket 08.05.18 8:37

I posted yesterday in a rush - never advisable!

I stated that I had looked at this a while ago and discounted Dr Julian Totman because of his size/appearance - which is correct. At the time I went through all MW fathers with young daughters.

But I failed to notice yesterday that I had also discounted Totman as Tannerman because in 2013 Andy Redwood had specifically stated the father was carrying his 2 year old daughter. Taking the announcement on face value we have to assume Redwood was stating the age correctly - he was a senior detective.

On this basis, I had narrowed the field down to only 2 possibilities: Mr M Handy or Mr A Heselton. Both of whom had a 2 year old daughter (and no other children). I struggled to find any images of these 2 online.

Totman's daughter was 3 years old at the time so why state the child being carried was two? Was either Heselton or Handy lined up to come forward and then backed out?

The Sun article states that Totman gave a statement in Portugal to the GNR (soldiers) - this would never have happened but may be simple confusion over the police set up in Portugal. His statement, if any, would have been to the PJ. Are we to believe that the PJ had Totman's statement and still agreed to entertain Jane Tanner's sighting as the 'abductor' or that they simply overlooked what he had told them?

I still come back to the question: Why would a professional family man (Totman) agree to get involved?

I hate to say this, but IMO, this latest revelation with Totman does give more weight to the argument that Smithman is not all that he seems. Two apparently upright citizens (Smith/Totman); 2 sitings of men carrying young girls, in similar pyjamas, with bare feet, around about the right time and place to be implicated in an abduction of a young girl in almost the same pyjamas - what are the chances? And, I mean that, what are the chances?

Just as an aside, Stephen Carpenter tells us that the Mcs met Julian Totman on the Sunday morning when they all attended the tennis 'coffee morning' (possibly the party witnessed by Carol Tranmer from her Aunty Pamela Fenn's balcony, and a get together strangely absent from the T9 accounts apart from a passing mention by Matt Oldfield).

by suzyjohnson 08.05.18 9:01

Out of interest, did Dr Totman do any searching? He was in the next block along from the Tapas group. Was he out after 10 pm, in his Tannerman outfit searching the streets, where half the town would've seen him?

by Crackfox 08.05.18 9:12

I thought Julian T was the father of W*****m who was in Madeleine's creche group. I thought their daughter was younger - two? Still question remains why wasn't he cleatly identifiable to JT who would have surely known him and more troublingly how did she confuse him for Murat?

by skyrocket 08.05.18 9:32

@Crackfox - yes, thanks, you're completely right, Totman's daughter was 2 years old. Bank holiday madness on my part - pity the delete function has been removed. Totman's daughter is shown as 2 years on the Guest Sheets in the files but her age has been copied over as 3 years next to the sheets.

So back to Totman being about 6'1" as the main reason I discounted him!

The rest of my post stands.

by Crackfox 08.05.18 10:07

Do you know if the daughter attended the creche, skyrocket? Yep at 6'1" he's pretty unmissable! I don't think he was the only tennis bubby to help thicken the plot - there was another one who spotted a spotty fella loitering I seem to remember? The sort of bloke a ten year old would conjure up if they wanted a nasty man in their story.

by skyrocket 08.05.18 10:27

@Crackfox - Hi. Yes, if you look at the creche records (for what they are worth IMO) Miss Totman seems to have been to various am/pm sessions in Sarah Williamson's group of the Toddler 2's (all 3 x Toddler 2 groups, of 4 children each, occupied the tented creche behind the Tapas Bar).

by Phoebe 08.05.18 11:55

Team McCann are going to have a hell of a problem now in trying to claim that Totman and Smithman must be the same person. If Totman was seen close to his apartment carrying his two year old daughter at 9.15 p.m. then there is no logical explanation for why he would be where Smithman was seen with a child 45-50 mins later. If he was collecting his child then he would have had her in her bed within minutes of being seen (despite going the wrong way, from his apartment rather than to it) if he was dropping his child to the creche then that is in the complete opposite direction from the Smith sighting 45 mins later and his child would presumably, have been in the night creche at 9.50 pm. In any case, Totman's child was 2 yrs old and both Martin and Aoife Smith are sure the child they saw was around 4 yrs old. No, Tannerman-Totman cannot be Smithman. So, I look forward to Op. Grange re interviewing the Smiths, especially since Martin Smith has reiterated his belief that it was Gerry McCann that he saw. That should be interesting!

------ That they bathed the children, the deponent having left at 18H00 for a tennis game only for men, at which were: DAN, tennis instructor; JULIAN, with whom he had played tennis several times; and CURTIS, with whom he had also played.

It certainly does.
We have Gerry McCann who worked with the Gov connected COMARE back in the time and we have Weinberger who worked inside Porton Down for the Gov backed company Enigma and later "Diasolve" and involved clinical trials for subjects under 18 years.
It's claimed that Totman also worked inside Porton Down.
These Dr's,(and all the other doctors+a muliti millionaire) the same week, in a low season Pdl, a coincidence?

Two days after news broke of "Tannerman's identity" and not a peep from the McCanns. There are no reports in any of the papers quoting the usual " Pal, chum, source close to the family, spokesperson" etc. to tell us of the McCanns' reaction to the news that Gerry's tennis buddy and fellow medic failed to approach anyone with his information which could have solved the mystery and avoided the waste so much time and money. Decidedly odd!

No it wasn't - DCI Andy Redwood ruled him out to get Jane Tanner finally off the hook.

Totman is not a sighting, he is an excuse for Jane Tanner's phantom abductor, planted by a source close to the family I don't doubt.

@ Aquila. I second that! (sorry, got mixed with the killing mccann case thread
Now that Tannerman has been named any claim of "evidence" of an abduction is on its last legs. The Smith sighting, even with the most fertile imagination, cannot possibly be linked to Julian Totman. Therefore, it remains the only suspicious sighting by anyone at the relevant time. It is vital to get, once and for all, to the bottom of what the Smiths did and did not see and what they have done since. They should be re-interviewed at length and a reconstruction with them should be done in Portugal. This would A) clarify in detail why they did not report it until after they left Portugal, B) Revisit the descriptions in their statements and explain how they came to describe what they saw eg. lighting conditions for each witness, how some came to note clothing details etc. C) Confirm whether Gemma O'Doherty's report that Martin Smith has not changed his mind about it being Gerry he saw is correct. D) Explain how and with whom the e fits were drawn up and their opinion of the result. E)

Hi aquila,if,Smithman,Totman and Tannerman have all been possible sightings between 21.15-22.00 hrs would mean Three Males,Gerry,Julian,Robert with one connection Jane knowing them or identifying them?

So Kate,"They've Taken Her" spoken words Never happened?

Perhaps the Portugal PJ were right in,"Deception,Deceive"them methods were used falsely claiming an abduction to have occurred,with no Evidence to back there claim up,aka Operation Grange Remit,an Abduction,as if it happened within the UK,the falsehood being,the supposed abduction was to have happened in Portugal,don't most Police forces use basic Police methods to Determine a crime!

Scotland Yard are making the biggest mockery of themselves on Operation Grange and as has been stated,"Keystone Cops",then add in the Three well known DCI's,Hamish Campbell(Jill Dando unsolved murder,framing of Barry George),Simon Foy,(They,were,where,they,were statement) and Andy Redwood,(Creche Dad,Smithman,revelation moment)backed up by the Metropolitan Police Commissioner,Sir Bernard Hogan Howe,A/C Mark Rowley and now "we'll see where we go with it",Miss Cressida Dick?

Hi Verdi,so No Abduction= No sighting!

So these persons who are now stating they had been seen carrying a young girl 3 May 2007 could have been them taking their daughter towards the Beach or back home to their apartment,walking the wrong way from the night Creche are misinforming the public via the MSM into something that never occurred?

Why would innocent people,"fabricate" something that may never have happened,are they deluded?

So Scotland Yards finest 33 detectives have overlooked Mr Juilin Totman for five years from the Crime Watch special 14 October 2013,Creche Dad,Smithman?
Did DCI Andy Redwood in fact having spoken to Mr X as the unnamed individual with the clothing accessories he had kept hold of for the past Eleven Years interviewed as per Operation Grange revelation moment,have now ruled that person out via the e-fits,Dave Edgar,Henri Exton,Brian Kennedy!
Note,Mr Andy Redwood hasn't named the source he spoke to in regard to being the Father of the girl being carried back home to the apartment,I haven't redacted Mr X's name but will now do so!

Funny how all these alleged sightings happened on the night of Thursday 3rd May 2007 and afterwards isn't it?

There is evidence, by way of the two specialist dogs Eddie and Keela, that a death had occurred or a corpse had at some time been placed in apartment 5a, occupied by the McCann family.

Contrary to the claims made by the McCanns and their group of friends, there was absolutely no evidence of child abduction, burglary, forced entry, unforced entry, forensic evidence of an intruder - but the two dogs?

Cadaver scent alert by Eddie the EVRD and human bodily fluid alert by Keela the bloodhound.
