He has fallen off again - I think it is quite good to show an alcoholic fall off the wagon time and time again, makes it quite real

I too have no objection to them showing his falling off the wagon as long as it's done so he can climb back on again.
I think it is a good reminder to people.
No doubt he will spend an inordinate amount of time in the pub drinking orange juice again.
