- Sarah Forbes Stewart Performed by Nicola Coughlan

Released in March, the audio experience offers over seven hours of storytelling that reveals more than just the joys of companionship.

Aren't We Lucky poses challenging questions about the nature of friendships. The story follows Abby, a forty-year-old woman facing a turbulent phase in her life after losing her best friend. When Hetty, her dynamic and sometimes harsh best friend, died unexpectedly under mysterious circumstances, Abby's world began to unravel. The loss triggered self-reflection through memory as she recounted their friendship in reverse, realising how time has altered her perceptions and emotions.

Ås Abby reminisces about her past, listeners are taken back to their own youthful innocence, a time when friendships were less complicated.
