We are part of a heartfelt conversation between a mother and son and unpick the behaviours of domestic abuse and its cyclical nature. Does the system provide a breeding ground for domestic abuse? We take you to see Charlie’s clinical psychologist to find out why childhood underlies a domestic abuse relationship and why it’s so complex.

Part Six, Raised On Survival

Why is it so hard to talk about domestic abuse? What it is it about human behaviour that makes it so common? We are at a time in the UK where the most hard-hitting, reformative domestic abuse bill in its history has fallen and yet the scope globally of the domestic abuse epidemic is staggering. But, would it have worked anyway? Is anything we currently do working? These simple questions lead Charlie Webster to a deeply personal, raw investigation and challenging rethinking of one of society's most complex issues. Join us for a journey into the undiscussable. We challenge the government, the police, the UN and ourselves. We learn from victims and survivors, some of whom will surprise you, all of which will inspire you. Undiscussable is made by survivors for survivors, in the end, aren't we all in some way?
