the yellow teddybears (1963)


aka Gutter Girls. Thrill Seekers.
"I prefer my men a bit more mature."
A bunch of hormonal school girls including Linda (Annette Whiteley) wear yellow teddybear broaches to denote they have lost their virginity, and look down on the other girls as uncool. But then Linda discovers she may be pregnant and not able to confide in anyone struggles with what to do...
An interesting snapshot of pre swinging Britain and social attitudes to premarital sex and abortion, which at the time was still illegal.
