Off topic I know, but I thought I'd best reply to Jude...

I don't think there is a conspiracy at all...

I think that we have two very clever media savvy parents who are doing everything they can to find out what has happened to their child - I would be doing what they are doing if I was in their situation...

I wouldn't have gone to the Pope, or gone visiting to all those countries - I would leave it to the police and come home and get on with life for the twins. Sorry - Off topic.

If it was my daughter who had been snatched I think I would do anything, absolutely anything, to try and get her back; wouldn't any parent? What's more I don't think I'd care who I offended, who I took advantage of or what laws or conventions I broke. Surely there can be nothing, NOTHING more important than your child?

I agree, but also think they should be thinking of the twins, as Jude says, and how all this may be affecting them - what sort of life are they having at the moment?

Back at the beginning they interviewed a woman (now in her 30s) who had been 2 when her older brother disappeared in similar circumstances.

"How did it affect you?" they asked. How the hell could she know? Obviously life would have been different if he hadn't disappeared but as she had nothing she could remember to compare it with it seemed such a daft question.

Meanwhile, back at ShamiChakrabartiWatch....
My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that.

I do believe that she has gotten a Something-B-E! I heard it on R4 this morning - didn't catch whether it was an M, O or C though...

No that's unfair really she does a half decent job. I'd just like to see her develop a sense of humour from time to time.

In the Independent on Saturday she was one of the people interviewed about what Tony Blair should be given as a leaving present. I can't remember what she said now but she did show a sense of humour.

She's on the front of The Independent today, telling Gordon Brown how to run the country.

I saw her as well, Marty.

I'm afraid to say she has what I call a 'naughty-bum' face.........
