Nadine :

I agree that Crouch Sr. was doing the best he could to determine if 
he was safe but I still don't think he meant Karkaroff... Did you 
suggest Igor Karkaroff because you think that Crouch Sr. would have 
associated Harry upon seeing him with Krum ? I went and reread 
(again) the entire passage in the book (the Madness of Mr Crouch) 
and I don't think Crouch Sr. ever realised with whom Harry was at 
the time. He was too, well, mad !
I think Crouch Sr. had a specific person in mind when he 
said : «You're not... his ?» The word «his» is printed in italic and 
it is a procedure often used by JKR... I still haven't got a clue 
what this all means.

Nadine ;-)
