The funeral. A time to grieve, or a time to celebrate ?

[Jan]

I said at the time I read Colins book that one thing I did appreciate more was the absolute hell they all went through with the press and that included them getting into granny Bambers house under false pretences.

That included relatives of Colins and Jeremy and Julie - it was unrelenting and very cruel.

And that included the funerals .

How can an overgrown schoolboy slob look sophisticated ?

Jan, all these years on, I think we tend to forget just how big the story was. The local media made copy of it for years. It was the area version of Diana's death.

No, it's clearly written in both Julie's statement and Wilkes's book.

FOR ADAM!

Chapter 11 Page 90 in Wilkes's book states that Brett Collin's told Jeremy to put white powder on his face to make him LOOK sadder and that it was JUST A JOKE! He didn't actually have make-up on, they JOKED ABOUT IT!

No comment Adam?

'Brett suggested that Jeremy accentuate his grief by wearing white powder on his face. It was, the New Zealander declared, purely a joke'.

This does not state whether Bamber wore make up or not. It just said there was a conversation about it. You claimed he certainly did not although his skin does look a lot more pale than usual.
