In a staid English seaside town after the Second World War, young Lynda grows up with her widowed father and younger sister. Rebellious Lynda has been swearing constantly from an early age. At sixteen, she becomes more exhibitionist and seeks out sexual encounters challenging the prevailing lower-middle class attitudes to sex. She eventually becomes pregnant by an acquaintance of her father.

Lets be honest - this film probably isn't good without the presence of Emily Lloyd. From her first moments on screen, I was captivated. I can't remember the last time I said that about an actor. I read a little bit about her personal life - it is such a shame that her struggles prevented her from achieving the heights that were possible for her given her immense talent and charisma. Also, I think that it is safe to say that this movie - for better or worse - could not be made today. follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook IHATEBadMovies
