By Maria Lewis. Giving your teenage daughter a copy of the Joy Of Sex might seem like a controversial parenting move. But back in the seventies things were a bit more open-minded, or at least they appear that way on Puberty Blues. I hated it.

She is portrayed by Ashleigh Cummings. Debbie starts off as an innocent young girl, living a conventional lifestyle at home and spending time with her best friend Sue Knight. Debbie attends school and her and Sue have a plan to get into the Greenhill Gang, much to the reluctance of Vicki and Cheryl, the two main girls of the gang. You could see Debbie as a high spirited and kind hearted girl, who is fiercely loyal to her best friend Sue and like any young girl seeking out the perfect boyfriend. However as the show progresses Debbie becomes more rebellious after falling in love with Gary Hennessy and being accepted into the gang she also becomes more resistant to follow the rules that her mother constantly tries to enforce on her.
