SY may well want to keep the McCs onside but putting out information on national and European tv that is claimed to be new seems to serve no purpose other than to protect the McC's reputation which is probably stretching keeping them onside quite a bit.  Following them around Europe with the same misinformation as part of some clever ruse or long game seems a rather ridiculous waste of effort and resources IMO, but time will tell as always.  Thanks to people who posted their agreement with this view, and also to anyone who disagreed for taking time to explain why.  What a dull forum it would be if all we did was agree with one another!

I don't think you've interpreted this quite correctly. This whole exercise, surely, has been designed by SY (in coordination with PJ) to put maximum pressure on the McCs, in the hopes that one of them will crack, or failing that, they'll make even more foolish and incriminating mistakes. It also puts indirect pressure on T7 etc. iikewise to spill the beans.

1. May 2011 - SY commence review - but the McCanns hold back some information reported by their PIs.

2. SY therefore working for past 2 years in partial ignorance.

3. How did they come to know about the e-fits being missing?  Was it by interviewing the Smiths and the Smiths telling them about doing e-fits for Kennedy/Halligen/Exton?

I can`t figure out if this is when SY contacted Exton or Kennedy to get the e-fits. 

4. SY do the Crimewatch programme and get Jane Tanner and bundleman off the hook and present the new e-fits.

5. Henri Exton watches Crimewatch and is astounded to see the very same e-fits he reported to the McCanns back in 2008.  What can he do - he knows he is bound by threats from the McCanns not to reveal anything, so he decides to contact the Insight Team at Sunday Times.

Am I right here.

Possibly SY got the information about the Efits from talking to the Smiths, equally possible SY approached Exton for any information he had in relation to the case, at this point Exton might have told them himself.

Exton may have contacted the Sunday Times, but then they might also have contacted him, there weren't too many PI's working on the case and SY had said that the Efits were recovered from the files of the PI's. Exton probably now has the protection of SY / Sunday Times?

The McCanns have been in worse press situations than this, its one article a drop in the ocean and they have managed to spin their way out. While its an exciting development, i think to say the whole crimwatch program was a huge elaborate ruse to catch the mccanns lying is madness. Nothing but wishful thinking, why do people think the police do these super over elaborate tricks.

I'm not going to break out the champaigne until they are made suspects or arrested.

The evidence, including e-fits of a man seen carrying a child the night the toddler disappeared, was included in an intelligence report produced by a firm of former spies for her parents in 2008.


But the report was sidelined for five years by Gerry and Kate McCann because it was critical of people involved and would have caused a distraction if made public, The Sunday Times reported.  


The team of hand-picked former MI5 agents was hired by the McCanns in the spring of 2008, 10 months after their daughter disappeared from the Portuguese resort of Praia da Luz.


A report they produced was “hypercritical” of the McCanns and their friends and the authors were threatened with legal action if it were ever published, the paper reported.


Its contents were kept secret until Scotland Yard detectives conducting a fresh review of the case contacted the author for a copy.

The e-fits of the suspect formed the centrepiece of a Crimewatch appeal earlier this month that attracted more than 1,000 calls from the public.

The Find Madeleine fund said all information privately gathered during the search for Madeleine "has been fully acted upon where necessary" and passed on to Scotland Yard.

A spokesman for Scotland Yard, said: “Where we have been able to make massive steps forward is by drawing together all the material gathered to date, and reviewing it as a whole

That's good but we really need someone to blow on the tinder...before we get the media firestorm. Someone needs to ask some obvious questions. What were the anomalies? are NSY aware of the anomalies? Was Andy Redwood aware that the information had been suppressed for 5 years? Is it legal for lawyer firms to threaten legal action over release of information relevant to criminal investigations? Who did the Smiths originally say the person was?

You've linked to a one and a quarter hour Spanish news program, the headline of which appears to be a demonstration about cuts.

Madeleine McCann: critical new evidence is from five-year-old suppressed report
Critical new evidence at the centre of the reinvigorated hunt for Madeleine McCann came from a suppressed report by ex-MI5 investigators.

@mitch_1uk Can you explain why the e-fits produced 5 years ago with help from Martin Smith have only just been released by SY? #McCann
