About this listen

Growing up in the 1990s, twin brothers Nick and Simon are inseparable. They’ll do anything for each other. As Simon puts it, they are ‘one split in two’. But that bond turns into a curse when both become addicted to heroin and frequently undermine each other’s desperate attempts to get clean. Over a number of years, the boys and their family are thrown into emotional and financial chaos – until the terrible day when Nick pays the ultimate price for his addiction.

Featuring: Bamshad Abedi-Amin, Janice Acquah, Victor Alli, Josephine Arden, Scarlett Brookes, Jessica Dennis, Felicity Duncan, Owen Findlay, Emilia Fox, Matt Gavan, Tom Glenister, Chris Grahamson, Roger May, Nicholas Murchie, Harry Myers, Sarah Whitehouse and Josh Zaré.

About the author

Elizabeth Burton-Phillips is a drugs counsellor who previously spent thirty-five years as a teacher. She kept a harrowing video diary throughout her twin sons' battles with drug addiction and now gives talks to organizations all over the UK. In her son’s memory, Elizabeth founded DrugFam, a charity providing a lifeline to families, friends and partners affected by someone else’s drug or alcohol use. DrugFAM are unique in the UK because they provide the complete remit of support services, from education to addiction support, right through to bereavement counselling. In 2017, Elizabeth was awarded an MBE. Her book, Mum, Can You Lend Me Twenty Quid? is the inspiration for the Audible Original Drama Inseparable.
