Both are befriended by the actress Maud Ling, childhood friend of Daisy's eldest sister, Mabel. The girls meet Maud's young brother Teddy and Lucy falls in love with him. When he falls for a glamorous American actress and goes to the US with her Lucy is heartbroken.

Determined to get on with her life she finishes her training and decides to work for the studios. Daisy too must face her own heartache. Life isn't easy for either girl and soon tragedy strikes. Against all odds both must fight for what they really want in life.
