*Warning: Contains spoilers Monday 6th May's episode of The Archers*
Monday's (6th May 2024) episode of The Archers ended on a dramatic note, after Alice and George found themselves involved in a horrific car crash at the end of Sunday's instalment.
It wasn't just them – Mick, Joy and Fallon were also involved in the crash, which happened as George was driving a drunk Alice home. When she tried to open the door to be sick, the car swerved and hit the trio, who were in a car together, which fell into the river.
In Monday's episode, Alastair and Denise found them, and while Mick pulled Joy from the river, Fallon was rescued by George and Denise. However, there was a sting in the tail for hero George, as at the last minute he pulled Alice into the driver’s seat of the car, implicating her as a drunk driver who caused the accident, and clearing himself of responsibility.
It was a shocking twist which is sure to set the stage for episodes to come, as George tries to hide his deception and Alice likely ends up in legal hot water.
