My favourite YouTube barrister Alan Robertshaw looks at the Radio 4 soap's treatment of the trial and sentencing of Ambridge ne'er-do-well George Grundy.
For the most part, he concludes, they got things right. And, as ever, we learn something of the law and how courts operate along the way.

He had also had a drink and nobody knows how much
And because he moved Alice to the driver’s seat he was also not tested - so that was a further PCJ
The judge's sentence will have been based on the evidence presented to court, not what he heard on The Archers.
He would not have been driving dangerously had Alice not tried to get out of the car. I think the sentence was correct. However, why is nothing being done about Alice. Why are not social services involved about her capacity to parent if she gets drunk in her car down lanes?
It’s because she never wears underpants
He has been a prison sentence waiting to happen for years; and it was balm to my soul.
Maybe, but Tom Forrest shot a poacher dead, Shula smothered Doris so she could inherit Glebe Cottage, and Brian obvioulsy murdered the real Adam when he was a boy. None of them went to prison.
Agreed! I can’t stand Alice.
