Synopsis by Hal Erickson

British sitcom favorite Penelope Keith starred in this weekly BBC1 TVer as Helen Walker, a 41-year-old widow who successfully ran her late husband's construction business. The plot congealed when Helen fell in love with the firm's top architect, Peter Morgan (Christopher Villiers), who happened to be 16 years her junior. At first attempting to conceal her romance from her friends and colleagues, Helen eventually adopted a what-the-hell attitude and drew up plans to march Peter down the aisle. Alas, Sweet Sixteen ran for a mere six episodes from October 16 to November 20, 1983, leaving the future of Helen and Peter forever in limbo once the program was canceled.
