Addiction (Australia)

Part Two (1x2)

:

In this second and final instalment of Addiction, the four addicts who have just completed rehab at the Manor now face their biggest test: can they return to their old lives without returning to drugs, gambling or booze? In Moe, Victoria, 49-year-old Mick seems to be on the road to recovery. He’s organising his return to work and his elderly mother is pleased as punch with her rejuvenated son. But every afternoon when Mick does the grocery shopping he has to walk right past his old drinking holes. It’s a vulnerable moment that tests Mick’s fledgling recovery to the limit. Meanwhile in his hometown of Shepparton, 22-year-old poly addict James is trying to put his bad-boy ways behind him. But the friends he used to take drugs with aren’t being supportive of the new direction his life is taking. Unless he can find some new friends, and some new ways to spend his free time, his recovery will be on shaky ground. Tim and Denise are also embracing life after rehab, and they’re facing their own challenges. Tim has to bond with his new housemates who are also recovering addicts, while Denise has returned to a lonely homeless shelter where isolation could lead her back to the pokies or the booze.
