Padlocks: Living with Sid & Nancy

Summer 1977. A chance ring at the door. Punk’s most notorious couple need to score and they’ve come to the right place.

Two couples, two beds, one cat, one room, and a TV; the junkie life is laid bare as Sid & Nancy move in; bonding over books, music and the eternal quest for the next hit.

From Never Mind The Bollocks to ‘Holidays In the Sun’, this is the story of the Pistols observed up close by Den Browne, the man who Tony Wilson claimed ‘turned him onto punk’.

As the Pistols descend into chaos so does Sid: from witty, committed, idealistic musician into drunken, knife-wielding, tabloid hate figure.

Padlocks is an unflinching account of living with Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen in the eye of the media storm.
