Tapas Cook Video Translation (Thanks X!)
[Inside SIC Studio]
Journalist on Studio: And tomorrow, 3rd of May marks a year since Madeleine McCann disappeared. There in Praia da Luz, Maria João [name of the other Journalist], good evening, is there any ceremonial service predicted?
[Cut to journalist on location]
Maria João: Here, in the Ocean Club, no, nothing is going to happen here to mark the date, just a mass that will be done tomorrow at 18:30pm in the church of Luz. A bilingual mass which is going to mark one year since the disappearance of Maddie. In relation to the process, there are no new developments expected for the next few days. Only in the 15th the Judge of Criminal Instruction from Portimãos Court is going to reassess if the process continues or not under Secrecy of Justice. Its very likely that the process continues like in the last year. Who broke the silence, while we're on the subject, were the Portuguese employees from the Tapas Bar, the restaurant where the couple McCann had dinner in the night of Maddies disappearance. Those 8 Portuguese employees didnt see their contracts renewed this year. They were obliged in the last 12 months to be silent, forbidden to talk with journalists. Since they contracts were not renewed they decided to talk. SIC has spoken with the cook.

Voice over Introduction: She doesnt show her face but a year later and without working in the Ocean Club, Manuela decided that she wasnt obliged to the silence anymore. The cook [chef] who prepared a Robalo [Snook fish/ Sargeant fish] with cuscus [signature dish of the Arab world] and the pepper steak meal the McCanns had to dinner in the night Maddie disappeared was in the griller area 3 meters away from the table of the couple.

Manuela, the cook: They had already eaten the main course, [Cut to blurry image of a womans face, with a strong southern accent from Algarve], because it was already around 9:30pm when she gave the alarm.
Voice over: This former employee from the Tapas tells that immediately various colleagues left their work posts to help the searches. Meanwhile, in the hours that followed, during most of the time the McCanns stayed inside the apartment.
Manuela: My colleagues were indignated [angered/offended], because they went
One of them even had his feet all red, tired
and he was offended because he went to search though he wasnt anything related to the girl, and the parents didnt. [Cut to apartment] They stayed indoors, in the apartment.

Voice Over: A year ago, suddenly everything changed in the Ocean Club. The quiet resort, ideal for family holidays, was invaded by police and journalists.
Manuela: The Ocean Club, the Tapas turned into a pandemonium [chaos]. No one could get out, no one could get in. Even if we were married, our husbands couldnt get in, neither our friends. Everything was surrounded
The security officers didnt know the employees. They thought the employees were journalists. In the beginning everything was really complicated.
Voice Over: The Judiciary went in a full scale operation to Praia da Luz. For more than a month the investigators created a kind of headquarters in one of the apartments of the Ocean Club. All the employees from the resort were heard.
Manuela: They all went in two
in two hours by two hours, two [referring to the number of people in pairs], during sometime. Close to a month. We were almost 200 employees.
Voice Over: Manuela remembers of seeing Madeleine sometimes.
Manuela: When the Parents would put her at the crèche, in the babysitters, the kitchen was next to it.
Journalist on location: How was Madeleines routine during those holidays? When she entered there, in the Ocean Club?
Manuela: She got in, was delivered to the babysitters. The babysitters would do a class; they would do a group course with the girls. Between 4pm and 4:30pm they had something to eat. In the morning they had a fruit lunch [breakfast?]
And then the parents would come to pick them up at 5 oclock in the afternoon.
Journalist: In the middle of all those children do you remember Maddie?
Manuela: Because she entered there, she would wave goodbye, or say hello
She was really nice [lovely/polite]. She was always smiling.
Voice Over: After the disappearance of the girl, several family members of Kate and Gerry came to the Algarve.
Manuela: I remember that the family members instead of being worried with the family, would go to the pool, rented the tennis court, played tennis
Instead of being worried with the child that was disappeared!
Voice Over: The majority of the employees who was in the Tapas in the night of the Maddies disappearance as already left the resort.
Manuela: The contract ended and they sent us to unemployment.
Journalist: All the team that was in the Tapas that night?
Manuela: All the team that was there in that night.
Voice Over: After the disappearance of Maddie, the McCanns stayed in the Ocean Club for more 65 days. In July they moved to a house in the outskirts, away from the journalists eyes. It was there that they stayed until the 9 of September, the day that they went back to England.
