Chris and Alice Return From Vegas

We delve into The Archers鈥� archive and Alice and Chris return from a holiday in Vegas with a surprise for their parents.

Three weeks of themed programmes from the last two decades reliving key moments from the characters鈥� lives and the events that make Ambridge unforgettable. This episode forms part of the first week looking at how four different couples tied the knot and how one much loved character left the series.

Alice started dating Neil and Susan鈥檚 Carter鈥檚 son Christopher in 2008. Jennifer wasn鈥檛 pleased at her daughter dallying with a pigman鈥檚 son but reassured herself that Alice鈥檚 imminent departure to Southampton University would put an end to it. But she was wrong. The couple worked hard to maintain the long-distance relationship 鈥� despite occasional temptations and Jennifer鈥檚 ham-fisted attempts to pair Alice off with uber-posh Sebastian 鈥楤asti鈥� Streatfield.

Alice pooh-poohed Chris鈥檚 worries that he was too lowly for her. She loved him 鈥� and he returned the sentiment. They headed off for a holiday to America and when they returned it was to announce that they had got married in Vegas.
