Madeleine McCann: why the case remains unsolved

In this episode, Andy and Neil look at the key mistakes that were made early in the investigation by the local police - and whether there is a realistic chance of this case ever being solved.Neil also reveals how high profile murder and missing persons investigations are carried out in the UK, and why some 'cold cases' - such as the Stephen Lawrence murder - can eventually be solved many years later.Follow us on social media: @thecrimeagents
