Does Alice have dashcam? Presumably George would have noticed

#TheArchers
Does Joy's feller (forgot him name) have dashcam? The police would want that.
#TheArchers
Ooh, good calls.
It's a bit wet. Wetter than George's phone. #TheArchers
Ah yeah. Still, I would think they'd get something from it.
#thearchers
What has happened to Alice's car? Will the police have impounded it?
And how tall are Alice & George 🕵️? #TheArchers
I hope forensics prove Alice’s innocence.
#thearchers #TheArchers
What difference does it make how tall they are? Intrigued....
It's their relative heights that matter. I'm 5'2". I would know if someone else had driven my car. #TheArchers
Nice catch! I can't get into our car without moving the seat back if Mrs Wrong has been driving! #TheArchers
Ooooh excellent point! Me too! I’m 5ft 1 so would know by seat height, how far back it is and the rear view mirror if someone had been in it.
Like with office chairs. In the pre-Covid times, the second I’d get into it I’d be like “Alright, who’s fannied around with this?!” #TheArchers
Exactly. Also the mirrors would have to be adjusted—which I always have to remember when OH has been in my car.
Ooh, good point! I’m not sure they would look that closely at the car unless they needed to, though. Mind you, I’m no expert on RTA investigations. The best thing Alice can do now I guess is insist she wasn’t driving and force them to look… #TheArchers
Not enough resources to do forensics when the culprit seems so obvious, apparently…
#TheArchers
Exactly. But if they want to prosecute a contested case, they need the evidence and that will include a report on the car. #TheArchers
Yes….I’m a bit puzzled as to whether Alice has actually been charged- I think she’s been arrested under suspicion but presumably they are will evidence-gathering prior to charge & now will take her car? And check Mick’s
I’m guessing Alice will have flashbacks
#TheArchers
Yes, if she’d been charged she would have been bailed, rather than released I think. And no conditions indicates she’s not even on police bail, so my best guess is that she was so incapable they don’t believe she could have been driving. #TheArchers
*nods*
The state of her she was barely able to sit up, let alone physically drive.
#TheArchers
I’m thinking about fingerprints. I suspect the glovebox will be especially important, given so many references to it. #TheArchers
Yes, I think you may be right. #TheAechers
Assuming they are giving it any real thought, there are a few things which might make them wonder. As Jacqui said, she was so incapable that they should be questioning whether she could, possibly, have been driving. The driving seat may well have been implausibly far back for Alice
#TheArchers
It was Alice saying she was about to be sick, which distracted George and was a trigger for the accident. That suggests that either the passenger door, footwell, or the ground just outside the passenger door, may have been covered in fresh vomit. Unlikely, had she been driving.
#TheArchers
Someone has commented, in another place, that airbags only go off if there's someone in the relevant seat. I'm not sure if Alice's car actually hit anyone/anything but, if both airbags were deployed, that could give the police cause for thought as well.
#TheArchers
Excellent sleuthing!!
Ooh, yes. I was also wondering earlier whether Joy might realise it wasn’t Alice. #TheArchers
We be like Inspector Morses 😂
#TheArchers
I'd rather be Vera. I never thought Morse was that good - Lewis did all the work for him.😄
#TheArchers
I’d rather be DI Jane Tennison!
#TheArchers
I think most of us on here are more Miss Marple.😉
#TheArchers
Given my hormone levels, I’m more Poirot these days
😆
Your moustache is almost as good as mine!
😂
They said Alice's car clipped Mick's car. That probably wouldn't be enough impact to set off the airbags. Plus we don't think we heard a sound effect of the airbags deploying. #TheArchers
I suggested the thing about the driver's seat & other people have mentioned the mirrors. However, we heard George drive off pretty quickly, not sure he had time to adjust anything. #TheArchers
Was she sleeping on the driver or passenger side? She could have reclined her seat to sleep on, George wouldn’t have had time to right it after the rescue if it was the passenger side. #TheArchers
George had originally moved her from drivers' side to passengers' side so he could drive. Then he moved her back to driver's side after the accident. They didn't say anything about reclining. She was too drunk to do that herself I think.
Oh yeah, I couldn’t remember if he moved her to start with and I don’t have the constitution to listen again. Thanks!
I thought they said she'd been charged with drunk driving
😀Pal had a fancy Jeep with electronic keys. 1 for him & 1 for his wife. If he used his it set seats, mirrors & steering wheel to his settings. Her’s put the car to her settings. She was a lot shorter than him. 1 day he picked up the wrong key & wondered why he was up against the wheel & screen 😀
Oh interesting...very interesting!
For all the crime novels I read I didn't think of that. And I'm 5ft nothing and can't see over the steering wheel if my OH has been driving the car. 🙄😁
What would Joy’s behaviour have been though?
#thearchers #TheArchers
I think it was Alice's car that went into the Am, with both Alice & George still inside. #TheArchers
Alice's car might have dashcam and internal cameras with audio (here's hoping). #TheArchers
I just hope it ends with George facing serious criminal punishment for framing Alice.
#thearchers #TheArchers
Something I’ve just relised:
The Police found the cider George left/planted, but **where** is the vodka Alice drank in the car???
#thearchers #TheArchers
Chris questions Alice’s judgment:
Chris agrees with us that Alice should dump Harry.
#thearchers #TheArchers
Harrison would have Police Federation rep with him, surely?
#TheArchers
3/?
Then there’s what Harrison said about Alice and Martha.
Sorry if I have been rude.
#thearchers #TheArchers
A pity.
I would have been… interesting to have adult/teen George (A.Stobie) in the same scene as adult/teen Jake (Rob Redwood).
#thearchers #TheArchers
I think someone would have recognised him. #TheArchers
Also, Alice would have (presumably) downed the vodka shortly after purchasing it - so also close to Ambridge. #TheArchers
Does Alice have a compulsion to share everything with everyone? #TheArchers
See, Harrison, I would have just remained silent to Harry’s trying to get him to collude…
Alice would have noticed & asked Harry more..
#TheArchers
So what would happen? Presumably the executors would have to choose another trustee? #TheArchers
I will **never** forgive him.
He’s probably done permanent irreversible damage to Alice’s mental health.
