James, seriously mate - if it's been on the news, they know that there are people who need help - there's not a lot you can do apart from keep your phone on and reassure her

tell her to go murder a cow, slit open its guts and hide inside for warmth

I guess the fat bloke in one of the cars would do. you could burn the fat people for warmth.

Tell her to do it into a bottle and drink it in case she gets thirsty.

Also if she needs water, tell her to get the gas stove out the boot and boil the snow to melt it, thus killing any bacteria.

She should also hunt for small mammals and cook them on the ARGA also from the boot for around 15 minutes on a high heat.

She'll be reet, as long as she has plenty of fuel to leave the engine running she'll get by

Just hope to god there isn't any swingers parties going on in the motorhome in the lane next to her

She'll be ok!

go get your snow suit on and tennis rackets on feet and go find her be a real hard man

If your real nails, then volunteer to carry her home then go back to the car for security till its dug out snow. Shed have to give you the best sex ever the first night your cock has recovered from the frostbite youll get

That's what I'd do mate. Whether it seems daft to some people or not, that's just me. No way would I leave my gf trapped in the snow all night alone.

I agree you should try and help but the risk you run is becoming stranded yourself and that's no good for anyone concerned.

Has she got any supplies within the car? Blanket, shovel, stuff like that?

BBC website says that the emergency services are aware and fire crews are coming out, so don't panic too much. If she has to run the engine to the point of having no fuel left in order to keep warm, so be it.
