Back in court but Amaral is missing?

Hope is good for the soul, fedrules. As the writer Bernie Siegel (sp?) says, there is no such thing as 'false hope', there is only hope. Hope is a positive emotion and supposing everything you had hoped for for years didn't materialise, you could have spent those years feeling pessimistic and negative, with an.......oh oh, it probably won't work out, but years spent in hope cannot be bad for you, physically or emotionally.

Mr amaral has just walked in and we're under way.

I wonder if that's the one that asked Kate McCann where her daughter was!

I wonder why they requested him to be taken off the case?

Paiva is asked whether he ever got the impression from the mccanns they thought maddie could be dead. He says yes.

He was probably deemed to be unhelpful, hurtful and ludicrous.

Booga me!

Kate whispers something in gerry's ear and gives him a little smile. He stays looking straight in front.

Oops!! Well that's a bad one to start with.....

anne-chovey - what have they got to laugh at???!!

EDIT: I can't even access Sky News, looks like this story is huge

I think most people have always found the McCanns' failure to admit Maddie could be dead very odd. I mean this is the outcome of the vast majority of abductions..

Maybe Kate thinks Isabel Duarte will deal with that...it's asking the witness to speculate....but Gerry's not laughing, is he?

Didn"t the McCanns employ a South African guy who had some kind of gizmo which was like a water diviner, he didn"t find M<adeleine"s body but it proves Paiva"s impression.

Why did they want him removed?

Gerry has put his arm round kate as they listen to paiva's testimony.

Hi ann_chovey

How are you able to get pictures?

He's probably been handed a little note from Duarte saying...look caring and emotional!
