Adolescence: The Scripts
About this book
The complete scripts of one of the most urgent and talked-about television series of recent times.
Set in a northern English town, Adolescence tracks the aftermath of the brutal murder of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. When her classmate Jamie Miller is arrested in a dawn raid for the crime, his family, psychologist and the detective in charge are all left asking: how could this have happened?
Adolescence gripped audiences and commentators around the world when it was released on Netflix in 2025, sparking headlines and debate about the difficult and vital issues it confronts head on. Also applauded for its technical ingenuity – with each episode presented in one continuous shot, in real time – it became one of Netflix's most-watched series of all time and won numerous accolades, including eight Emmy Awards.
This volume contains the full shooting scripts of all four episodes, as well as new insights and commentary from the creators – including writer Jack Thorne, co-writer and star Stephen Graham, and director Philip Barantini – colour photographs, and essays about the issues it explores.
A must-read for admirers of this acclaimed series, it's also an invaluable resource for screenwriters and other filmmakers, as well as anyone looking to understand more about the pressures and challenges facing young people today.
