This was such an excellent series that even now, 16 years later, I still remember it as one of the best I have ever seen. Penelope Keith's performance displayed more of the depth of her talent than she has had the opportunity to express in some of her more recent roles, as she touchingly portrayed the passion, tenderness and confusion of a woman struggling to juggle love and a career. The fact that the blossoming love was with a man 16 years her junior - thus the title - added an extra dimension to this poignant comedy.
In Sweet Sixteen, Keith portrays a widow who suddenly finds herself in charge of the large construction business which her husband had built and managed successfully for many years. The fact that the age difference makes her feel that she must keep secret the affair with the young man who is so enamoured of her - and to whom she finds herself increasingly attracted - is further complicated by the fact that he is the company architect.
