Canoe Man


Anyone any thoughts on the return fom the dead canoe man John Darwin.
Seems he's been arrested and his wife has claimed his life insurance and moved too Panama City

Any thoughts anyone?

Oh I think there I agree with you Moli.

See thats what I have been saying all day. The only thing that niggles me is maybe they had worked out a plan and his wife has renaged on it, and cut him out so hence he has turned up so to speak to get her into trouble or loose the money,

Re: Canoe Man


Somebody is in cahoots with The Daily Mirror on this one . . . either the wife or the husband or both have been stitched well and truly by this delightful rag

I suspect the story is more complex than intially meets the eye - or maybe I'm just seeing conspiracy where there isn't any

Re: Canoe Man


Think its all to do with life insurance, they seemed to have been living in Panama, but for some reason he decided to come back....then spin a story he did not know where he had been the pastb 5 years...

Re: Canoe Man


Seems like the reason is he was spotted and someone told the police so he had to stage a comeback

I was actually hoping it was for real because wow what a happy ending

Re: Canoe Man


I thought it was odd when his wife didn't immediately rush back to UK when he "reappeared".
