Mike, do you think there was an agreement by Gerry and Jane Tanner to come up with the smokescreen of someone seen carrying a child away? The Tapas 9 seemed reluctant to agree to any form of re-construction. Seemed to me that Jane Tanner changed her story each time that she told it - somewhat akin to Ms Mugford.
On another point entirely...came across 2 dead bodies in a single dog walk here in Colchester on Tuesday evening...police in attendance at each scene. One white male hanging from a tree....followed 30 minutes later by a body under a blanket outside a flat - 'gunshot wounds to the stomach'....and all the locals saying 'you don't expect that kind of thing around here'....as per usual....still no confirmation of identity of either victim...second believed male also.
Colchester has a very high suicide rate with very few reported in the media.

Funny you should mention Jane Tanner, I find her evidence very suspect - in the serialized McCann parents story in the sun recently, Kate speaks about Jane Tanner's description of Maddie's pajamas, as being some sort of proof that Jane did see a man carrying off, the child, but what if Tanner was involved in the disappearance? She would have also known what Pajamas Maddie was wearing at the time she was taken?
Jane Tanner could have been part of the events which led up to Maddie disappearing from apartment 5a, in my opinion...
