Âgée de tout juste 16 ans, Lynda Mansell joue la provocatrice dans son petit bourg de bord de mer britannique des années 1950. Au grand déplaisir de son père veuf qui ne sait plus comment s'en occuper, elle choque volontiers son entourage par son vocabulaire peu retenu (son juron favori : "Up yer bum"). Naïve, elle vit ses premières expérience sexuelles et tombe enceinte du fait d'un ami de son père. Incapable de garder un travail, elle se fait offrir par sa tante de quoi payer l'avortement, mais décide finalement de garder l'enfant, et se promène triomphalement devant la bonne société avec son bébé.
