With a gun pointing at her head, Mrs Cahndler said: "Our captors are very impatient now that nobody has been in touch to enter into negotiations. 'So we ask the government and the people of Britain and our family, to do whatever they can to enter into negotiations with these people to buy back our lives.' BBC Security Correspondent Frank Gardner said the family were believed to be bearing up well. 'Although it came as a relief to see their loved ones alive and unharmed, it was distressing to see them surrounded by Somali gunmen,' he said. And a statement released by the family said: 'We miss them deeply and urge their release.' After the footage was aired, the Foreign Office issued a statement expressing sympathy for the victims' families, but reiterating its position. A spokesman said: 'The UKUK government position is clear: we do not make substantive concessions to hostage takers, including ransoms.' Instead they are using all their connections in east Africa to try to shift 'perception away from cash machines' and to try to persuade the pirates to do the 'humanitarian thing and let them go', said Mr Gardner. He added that although Somali pirates were very good at putting psychological pressure on, they had never killed anyone themselves."
