Drinkers at a remote country pub were trapped in the bar for EIGHT DAYS after 16ft snowdrifts cut them off from the outside world.
Snowploughs and rescuers made repeated attempts to get to the stranded regulars and staff – but had to turn back in ferocious blizzards.
Luckily the Lion Inn, perched high on the North York Moors, had stocked up on food and drink for Christmas parties – and two of those trapped were the pub’s chefs.
One, Daniel Butterworth, 17, told how his car vanished under 10ft of snow in the car park. He only found it when he dug down and spotted the aerial peeking out.
