Gypsy wedding is making me dead sad. Poor girls 
Grabbing? How f**king Barbara Cartland is that?
Rafe grabbed Hortensia she swooned in his mighty arms her eyes like limpid pools.
Then he thumped her and demanded a snog,
This is getting a bit hard to watch for me. So sinister.
And next week the fellas punch each other and nick some motors
It made me cry twice.
For real? It was a real documentary, except are they cherry picking the worst of the worst?
It's very diferent from a similar show on Community Channel
Check out Savvy Chavvy the travellers website for maybe more their view?
Yes I do feel that it is probably rather skewed. Might need to look into it. Do some learnings.
Every community has it's few juicy loonies that make good TV.
Doesn't obviate how sad that show was. Jeez leaving school at 13 to wash a caravan. And a world where no one cares if a muscular young thug punches you and drags you off.
Not all cultural traditions should be respected
I think there's supposed to be a massive cultural difference between Gypsies and Travellers. And maybe even different groups of travellers.
Just because this lot dress and dance like prostitutes from the age of three doesn't necessarily mean they all do.
