Snowpiercer fans left reeling as Mr Wilford’s survival confirmed with second train twist in blood-soaked finale
SNOWPIERCER'S first season concluded in explosive fashion - with viewers stunned by a twist of game-changing proportions.
WARNING: Spoilers from the Snowpiercer season 1 finale are ahead, so if you don't want any details turn back now.
The dystopian drama wrapped with a two-hour special which saw Andre Layton (Daveed Diggs) successfully overthrow the ruling powers of the train.
In the fallout from the uprising Layton struggled to keep the newly liberated tail and third class passengers in check, but the squabbles paled in comparison to the big reveal of the episode's final moments.
It was revealed that Snowpiercer doesn't represent the last of humanity as another train appeared, with the enigmatic Mr Wilford, played by Sean Bean, seemingly at the helm.
What's more, after the two trains joined together Melanie Cavill's (Jennifer Connelly) daughter, who was presumed dead, made her debut, demanding to see her mother.

Unsurpisingly fans were left in shock by the dramatic turn of events and took to Twitter in disbelief.
"Wait, WILFORD IS ALIVE?! Just got my head around him being dead FFS," one user wrote.
"Well if Sean Bean is Mr Wilford he's obviously gonna be a big deal in season 2, I did NOT see this coming," a second chimed in.
"That finale was insane, can't believe there's another train, with Wilford and Mel's daughter as well!" a third exclaimed.
While a fourth added: "Melanie is gonna FREAK when she sees her daughter, plus obvs gonna be unfinished business with Wilford."
