   The 'Daily Mail' said it "emerged through a third party" -   
   carefully-chosen words, no doubt, and open to interpretations different   
   from yours. The allegation is very relevant. Is Butler-Sloss pursuing   
   it? Who knows, maybe the person is very willing to give evidence.   
      
   On a weekend's leave in Norfolk, with his wife? Or in Paris that night?   
   Will the question be asked in open court? Will witnesses who want to   
   corroborate it or dispute it be sought out, and have their evidence   
   tested in open court?   
      
   If Fellowes can be shown to have been at the embassy that night, it's a   
   smoking gun.   
      
   What about the phone records from Balmoral? After all, Stevens - and   
   presumably Butler-Sloss now that Burgess has walked out - are seeking to   
   'leave no stone unturned'. Why not do it in public rather than let   
   people take the baron and baroness's word for it?   
      
   >As regards SIS officers the BBC   
   >did report that Stevens looked at the claim and found it to be untrue   
      
   Curiously one of the men - presumably the known torturer Langman - is   
   said to claim that he was on a 'weekend trip' to Greece, while the other   
   - presumably Spearman - admits he was in France but says he was in the   
   southwest (i.e. as far away from Paris as possible, without leaving the   
   mainland) with his wife and her family.   
      
   Jurors should of course be advised that when a family member gives   
   evidence which might help keep someone out of the dock on a murder   
   charge, they may feel that family ties are more important than telling   
   the truth. You gotta wonder whether the next thing we'll hear is that   
   Robin Janvrin had to go to bed early that night, having taken sleeping   
   pills owing to toothache (or maybe haemorrhoids - that'll do nicely in   
   the press), or some such ailment. Therefore he couldn't possibly have   
   had anything to do with telephone calls prior to, say, 6 am.   
      
   What a coincidence, that both Langman and Spearman say they were away   
   from the embassy for a while, and only returned after Princess Diana's   
   body was put on the aircraft for England.   
      
   What was the Chief of Staff to the SIS Director of Operations doing in   
   Paris at all?   
      
   >so no doubt it will be covered in his report. Has there ever been any   
   >claim that they were in Paris apart from Tomlinson (hardly an   
   >independent source ever since he accepted Fayed's shilling)?   
      
   Personally I have never been sold on his idea that Henri Paul's main   
   loyalty was to SIS. The guy sitting next to HP, however, may have been   
   open to helping out in an operation led by that party when push came to   
   shove. Meanwhile it's remarkable that no backup was given from the   
   backup vehicle.
