Secret Lives of Gypsy Wives Channel 4

[adverteasing]

What did you think?

So, I'm struggling with episode 1. My background is north England and I am part Gypsy. I found it completely unrecognisable. For me, it felt more like Irish Traveller with the distinctive names, the wandering around in their pyjamas, the glam hair and beauty and that kind of London, Road Man(?) rapping thing? Not a foggiest what that was.

I'm not convinced that there's enough material here for one episode, let alone a series.

Ok, it's dreadful. It's not for me. I'm giving up.

I remember her from that temptations programme and think she’s fairly funny

Am confused though how they can pay for a party at the community centre but not to get their dogs ashes.

I’m just watching episode 1. I think it’s a sweet idea to get the mum a little present from their dad on occasion but to have written out the ribbon as if it was from him was a bit strange. And them all crying at it was even weirder. It wasn’t him that wrote it!

I enjoyed it!

Bit boring for me.
