1970s TV short series Coming of Age / Teenage Runaway Couple Drama
I'm not expecting a result from this enquiry as the details are so vague but we all enjoy a challenge, so here goes!
It's definitely 1970s, probably a "made for TV" British drama across maybe 3 episodes and the main characters are a young boy/girl teenage couple who have run away to be together. They're sleeping rough as they travel, They're probably 15 or 16 years old. The boy may have looked a bit like Andrew Ashby (of Doombolt Chase fame) but I could be completely wrong after over 40 years!! The girl had a Purdey hairstyle, which supports a >1976 time period and she had an oily complexion and maybe a bit of acne. The only scene I recall is when they spent a night in ? a disused premises and took their first tentative steps in an intimate way in a sleeping bag. I'm sure that the authorities searched high and low for them and eventually caught up with them. As far as I know it was only ever screened once.
Thanks in advance.
