The Runaway

Childhood friends Cathy Connor and Eamonn Docherty grew up in the East End, facing adversity alongside Cathy's mother, Madge, a prostitute.

Two childhood friends from the East End, Cathy and Eamonn, faced the difficulties of their troubled upbringings. Cathy, the daughter of a prostitute, struggled to escape societal constraints, while Eamonn rose through the criminal underworld. Their lives took a dramatic turn when Cathy defended herself and her mother, and Eamonn's violent outburst led him to flee to New York, setting the stage for their doomed love story amidst the criminal world.
