About this episode
Tells the story of Tina Daniels, a thirteen-year-old singing and dancing star known as 'Curls,' who is unhappy with her fame and controlling mother. Seeking a quiet life, Tina runs away from the city and takes a train to Stonechurch to stay with her friend Mary's grandmother, Mrs. White, an elderly woman living a peaceful country existence unaware of Tina's celebrity status. Tina enjoys a brief period of simplicity and connection with nature, until a postman recognizes her from the newspapers as the "lost TV star," forcing her to reveal her identity to Mrs. White. The story concludes with Mrs. White helping Tina find a balance between privacy and happiness by arranging for her to attend a school on the island of Guernsey, away from the pressures of stardom, demonstrating the protagonist's preference for normalcy over fame.
