Kate and Gerry McCann:
23 November
The parents of the toddler who vanished while on holiday in Portugal in May 2007 recounted the ordeal of being "tried by media" following her disappearance.
They told of fantasy headlines – including untrue stories about a corpse in their hire car, an orgy at their villa and the couple selling their daughter – as well as Kate’s feeling of violation of having her diaries printed in the News of the World in September 2008, which she said she had not given permission for.
In February, ex-NOTW head of news Ian Edmondson would tell the Inquiry that he had been told to deliberately deceive the McCanns regarding the paper's possession of the diary.
