Just reading through the posts. You know I have no problem with these frauds giving people hope and faith, but when there is lives at possible risk it takes it to another level doesnt it? Just think if the police took these claims seriously how valuable resources could be spent in the wrong direction.
But it has been said that, specifically in the McCann case, the police did have to waste lots of resources chasing up nonsense from self-promoting 'psychics' because the McCann family would pass the claims to the police who felt required to pander to them because of media pressure.
I've just stumbled across this thread again so I thought I would check up on Graham's prediction:
Although he changed it again, it is still obviously wrong.Graham Dare was asked by a reader to find Madeleine McCann, but would only work via an investigative reporter (Mark Chandler's notes above for extra detail ie maiden name of abductor), who visited (from the newsshopper.co.uk) for 2 hours on the evening of 13/Jun (when it was widely believed that the Dutch newspaper report was correct but Graham went against the flow) and Graham stated: 24/04/07 3pm the train of events started; then 03/05/07 9pm she was taken from her parents (by 'Jen' after Madeleine had left the unlocked apartment carrying a toy duck wearing a red/orange coat, and falling) in a 4x4 car boot registration FH [not McCanns' car] for 3 hours and 2 minutes, averaging 40mph, ie 120 miles, to a work place for 2-3 days, then she was then on a boat via Latitude 12.3n Longitude 49.9e (Gulf of Aden) and will now be found in the Shohb factory in Sinaa, Yemen, 2 years later, but will be spotted 19 months after abduction.
Oh well, we'll just have to wait and see what his next prediction is...

Hello. Long time, no post.
Stil, Graham's latest update to the prediction he made AT THE TIME is a cracker.
Graham Dare was asked by a reader to find Madeleine McCann, but would only work via an investigative reporter (Mark Chandler's notes above for extra detail), who visited (from the newsshopper.co.uk) for 2 hours on the evening of 13/06/07 (when it was widely believed that the Dutch newspaper report was correct but Graham went against the flow) and Graham stated: 24/04/07 3pm the train of events started; then 03/05/07 9:11pm she was taken from her parents (by 'Jen Bokr' after Madeleine had left the unlocked apartment carrying a toy duck wearing a red/orange coat, and falling) in a 4x4 car boot registration FH [not McCanns' car] for 3 hours and 2 minutes, averaging 40mph, ie 120 miles, to a work place for 2-3 days, then she was then on a boat via Latitude 12.3n Longitude 49.9e, Gulf of Aden, to the Shohb factory in Sinaa, Yemen, 2 years later she will be named Shahla Khan, wear glasses, with a telephone number containing 6666, and is to be found in the 2009 Bath Christmas Market with her new brother/mother(Tammy).
Not found at the Christmas market, so he revises "WHAT WAS SAID AT THE TIME!"

I still keep an eye on Graham, because he's still at it. Hilariously, this time Graham has included a "prediction" ("postdiction?") about the past and still got it wrong. I make thirty three months from 03/05/07 to be 03/02/10, about four months before the earliest he could have posted this revision.
ETA - I've just had a count up and I make that at least 14 (fourteen) time GD has changed his prediction.Graham Dare was asked by a reader to find Madeleine McCann, but would only work via an investigative reporter (Mark Chandler's notes above for extra detail), who visited (from the newsshopper.co.uk) for 2 hours on the evening of 13/06/07 (when it was widely believed that the Dutch newspaper report was correct but Graham went against the flow) and Graham stated: 24/04/07 3pm the train of events started; then 03/05/07 9:11pm she was taken from her parents (by 'Jen Bokr' after Madeleine had left the unlocked apartment carrying a toy duck wearing a red/orange coat, and falling) in a 4x4 car boot registration FH [not McCanns' car] for 3 hours and 2 minutes, averaging 40mph, ie 120 miles, to a work place for 2-3 days, then she was then on a boat via Latitude 12.3n Longitude 49.9e, Gulf of Aden, to the Shohb factory in Sinaa, Yemen, 33 months later she will be named Shahla Khan, wear glasses, and is to be found by a police officer with an ID including the digits 6666 in Bath with her new brother/mother(Tammy).

Sorry, I am not from the UK, so I do not know if there have been any recent findings in the case. But I somehow guess that his prediction has retired as well...
It seems that Britain's #1 medium, Graham Dare, was a psychic healer too! Only his unusual method of "balancing energies" has led him to be convicted of sexual abuse. Graham Dare will be sentenced in January and will also be signing the sex offenders' register. See:
SourcePsychic healer and Lewisham mayoral candidate, Graham Dare, faces jail over sex assaults
A SPIRITUAL healer and clairvoyant who once ran to be Lewisham’s mayor is facing jail for sexually assaulting a client, claiming he was trying to “correct energy flow”. Graham Dare, aged 57, of Taymount Rise, Forest Hill, boasts of celebrity endorsements from TV presenters Melinda Messenger, Kate Thornton and Michaela Strachan. He claims to have communicated with the spirit of Diana, Princess of Wales, briefly wrote a blog for News Shopper and said he had tracked missing toddler Madeleine McCann to Yemen using his psychic powers.
Blackfriars Crown Court heard Dare preyed on a trusting 31-year-old Japanese student last September when she came for help with migraines. He groomed her by treating her naked or partially-clothed for three of their six sessions. Dare, waiving his fee for most of the appointments, fondled her breasts and groin before stripping off and luring her into massaging him.
Blackfriars Crown Court heard the woman was suspicious about his “strange” methods but did not object because she feared causing offence.
Heather Stangoe, prosecuting, said: 'It’s not a crime to trust someone. What is a crime is to take advantage of someone's trust and naivety and to abuse it for your sexual pleasure.' The victim described how, on one occasion he “concentrated between my legs and he held my nipple”. Dare told her: “This is the way to correct the energy flow.” On the final occasion, on September 20, Dare stripped naked while she massaged his arms and legs. She eventually realised he was masturbating. The victim said: “I didn't say anything. I was really, really scared. “I still believed he was a famous healer. “I was blaming myself because I hadn't paid him and he helped himself to my body.”
Dare insisted he was trying to help the woman, and said she might have been lying due to involvement in “Japanese mafia cults”. As Dare was convicted of three charges of sexual assault on December 5, jurors heard police investigated another complaint of 'a similar nature' in last April but no charge was brought.
He must sign the sexual offenders' register and will be sentenced on January 6.
