Teenagers in emotional reunion with paramedics who saved their lives after A68 crash 'carnage'

Six months on from a terrifying A68 car accident that could have killed them, teenagers Ellie Brion and Tilly Raper have been reunited with the ambulance service team who saved their lives.

Newton Aycliffe 's Ellie, 18, was driving while Tilly, 19 and from Richmond in North Yorkshire, was in the back seat of the car late in the afternoon on March 23 this year. They were looking for a park to spend the evening sun in when they were involved in a shocking crash - which was described by paramedic Becca Bynoe as "carnage".

Their shocking story was featured on last week's second episode of the BBC show Ambulance - which is focussing on the North East Ambulance Service (NEAS). This week, Tilly and Ellie - and their mums - were reunited with the team - Becca, clinical care assistant Chris Dundas-Twizell, Jordan Parker, Roger Anderson and Great North Air Ambulance 's Steve Miles - who rescued them and provided life-saving care.
