Barat says he has unfinished business with Doherty

Carl Barat tells Sunday Mail Live that The Libertines reforming is a big maybe, and that he has unfinished business with Pete Doherty.

Carl Barat says The Libertines may reform, which is interesting, because I could have sworn that last week he said they wouldn't. Oh, I see, last week he said they wouldn't reform anytime soon due to all round busy-ness, but this week he's said they may reform eventually. Speaking to Sunday Mail Live the Dirty Pretty Thing said he had "unfinished business" with Doherty, and that he would like to work with his former bandmate again at some point. Barat: "As to whether The Libertines could reform, it's a big 'Maybe'. It's a question that follows me around constantly. Some schoolkid will ask, 'When are you getting The Libertines back together?' I'm thinking, 'Do you really think this is something I haven't given a lot of thought to?' I miss the purity of what me and Pete had together when we started out. It would be great to have that back. Pete always used to say, 'Imagine the songs we still have to write'. That thought is always with me". Super.
