Absolutely. They asked for help to publicise their case in order to find their missing daughter. I don't see how tailing them home from the airport meets their request.

Assuming of course that you're being extremely sarcastic, I don't see how it serves any news agenda either. Even the likes of Harold Shipman and Ian Huntly weren't tailed around the countryside by helicopter.

The BBC says that they are getting together (Police and Social Services) to discuss 'their response' to the case ?

Forgive me for being thicker than a whale omelette but brain is not working
The McCanns are under suspicion of harming one of their children. It is quite normal for Social Services to consider whether they need to intervene to ensure the safety of the remaining children in the family. Police would have to be involved if a decision was made to remove the other children.
