Consultant from Kingston Hospital may be questioned in Madeleine McCann review

It’s not yet clear whether members of the so called 'Tapas 9' will be asked to contribute information.

Or that he'd also be wracked with guilt.

Well it won't be much of a review if it doesn't question the T9

Yes - never thought of that - still you can imagine when in a difficult position you would need support from friends and family (can't do a "get together" as they did before in Rothley - was it ?) and he can't talk to anyone else really as Gerry is their mouthpiece.

I really don't know - do you think this could be a 'hoax" ?

I imagine life is very difficult for all of T9, not only because of what you've said but because in this internet age - absolutely anyone and everyone can read all of the lies and conflicting stories that they've given out to the public and police, before refusing to return to Portugal for an official reconstruction. How can they ever be 'respectable' people again?

I say 'If confirmed' because so far it's from one source without any sort of attribution, and so much of what we've heard in the past has turned out to be a bit wide of the mark.

I quite agree with the earlier post that points out he won't be alone. So that would mean talking to everyone. No wonder so much money will be needed.

That's the whole Tapas mob - however many that may turn out to be. The other diners. The staff at the Tapas bar. The Gaspars. The Smiths. The helpful lady from Social Services. Justine McGuinness. Bridget and Jez. Mark Warner nannies and staff. Various church connected persons like priests, helpers, priests parachuted in from elsewhere, maybe even Vatican staff. Diplomatic staff and consular officials.

It means telecomms companies, banks, medical authorities, the Courts with the Ward of Court business. It means people with inflatable billboards,web designers, brothers and cousins and sisters and the like. Double glazing people, fellow holidaymakers, cabin crew, off-licence staff. People who sell bleach and photo paper for inkjet printers. Dog handlers (and maybe even the dogs!?)

Translators will be needed, because, like me, the Met are going to be iffy about accepting other people's stuff, and probably even iffier about the ones the McCanns allegedly had prepared. That's translators for all those documents, what were there about 9,000 of them?

And they're going to have to look at all the documents collected in the UK, all the photos taken at the time in PDL, all the reports from Mr Grimes and the people at FSS.

Just doing the interviews and going through the bits of paper are going to be quite a task. Then it has to be analysed, scrutinised, pulled apart and teased.

And at some point someone from the Met - maybe because he or she is suspicious, and maybe to eliminate people - will want a proper look at the events of May 3rd 2007. They will want to look because there's something about all those stories that doesn't quite add up, doesn't gel, doesn't feel right.

So they'll want a reconstruction, won't they? A proper one, not done by Jon Corner's company or even the BBC or ITV or Sky. But done by the Metropolitan Police.

We will never see it on film, but the repercussions will end up on the front pages.
