Doherty and Barat reunite to write musical

Former Libertines bandmates Pete Doherty and Carl Barat are reuniting for the first time in five years to create a new musical.

The former pals went their separate ways when Doherty was sacked from the band in 2003, after failing to beat his drug addictions. Doherty was also convicted and jailed for burgling Barat's London home.
