Do we know what Dad has done?

Chubfuddler · 21/02/2012 21:27

Time keeping seems to be an issue on these programmes.

The travelling comunity have been offered the use of racetracks but they do not want to use them.

MissMogwi · 21/02/2012 21:28

Gosh billy the kid has my ovaries just pinging.

"I'm the daddy" indeed. Twat.

KalSkirata · 21/02/2012 21:30

I hate the way the title is 'gypsy' tarring the Romany with the same brush

Sparklingbrook · 21/02/2012 21:30

Ooh I don't like the look of this. Sad

Chubfuddler · 21/02/2012 21:31

I don't think anyone thinks Romany gypsies are like this.

This horse racing is terrifying Sad

ImpatientOne · 21/02/2012 21:32

Oh I don't like this at all :(

sailorsgal · 21/02/2012 21:32

I'd have a heart attack if I saw them coming at me. Shock

HeteronormativeBuckethead · 21/02/2012 21:32

Sorry to butt in here.
I'm a traveller and this programme is in no way representative of 99% of Traveller culture and tradition.

I've reported the programme and its advertising to ASAS and Ofcom in the last few days, as have many of my friends and family.
It is racist. If you substitute Black/Jewish for Gypsy in My Big Fat... and you'll see what I mean.
I hope.

As you were.

Didn't they say at the start that these were Romany gypsies?

Chubfuddler · 21/02/2012 21:33

Look at the state of that pony. Can barely stand.

sailorsgal · 21/02/2012 21:34

But they are willingly been filmed aren't they???

Sparklingbrook · 21/02/2012 21:34

Shouldn't Channel 4 have told the Police? Confused

KalSkirata · 21/02/2012 21:35

is any of it true buckethead? Just curious. The very young marriages, and girls leaving education/not working?
My dh's family were Roma but he knows little about Irish travellers.
