Now, I’m going to try to talk about this without changing the tone too severely. In 2019, Netflix decided it was a good idea to produce an 8-part series about the extremely well-known disappearance of 3-year-old Madeleine McCann. And indeed, it was a good idea, even though the reviews weren’t 100% positive, the viewership was through the roof, making it the most watched show on the UK site in 2019. With that, came a new fervour to figure out what actually happened.

YouTube was full of conspiracy theory videos and the more outrageous the more views the video got; apparently 8 whole hours of content wasn’t enough for people.

Netflix had once again decided what was on everybody’s minds, lips and search histories and the McCann’s once again found a way to be in the public eye.

It was almost like we were back in 2007 again.
