Breakaway Girls: 2

on BBC One London

A series of four true case histories about girls who ran away and the homes they left.
Sarah Carter - a girl torn apart by parental conflict.
In these dramatised reconstructions only the names have been changed.
Sarah ran away from home and sought sanctuary with a man she didn't love; he was older than her father and homosexual. She was happy and at peace, something that she had never been at home; a home where life was a constant battle and Sarah the pawn in her parents' quarrelsome conflict. The reason for Sarah's breakaway is easy to understand, but not the anger of Mr Carter. Is it the concern of a father, or the jealousy of a jilted lover?
