maybe someone can correct me as I REALLY hope I heard it worng, but it seems next week's show delves further into the "grabbing" culture. I'm pretty sure in the trailer I heard 1 guy say "If you can't get a kiss, you have to beat them for one".... hmmmmmm!!!!
Just a reminder - on again tonight 9pm...

I actually found tonights programme very upsetting and disturbing.
I'm shocked this goes on in Great Britain in 2011
Girls taken out of school from 12 and 13, to do housework and to be prevented from 'outside' influences
Hardly any of them can read or write and they seem to accept this as being OK.
I felt heartbroken for the young girl watching her sister get married, with the reality of her fate sinking in.
And as bizarre as the whole 'big fat' wedding theme is, I'm beginning to understand the 'real' meaning of it. Its the one and only day in a 'girl/woman's life, where she gets to feel important and special and I don't blame them for trying to make it the biggest, fanciest, most expensive day ever
And as for 'grabbing' I'm left speechless... even the boys admitted that the girls wouldn't like the experience
The whole programme was highly depressing IMO

OH Lory you beat me to it, I couldn't believe my eyes, what an absolute scary program, but what a great program for giving an eye opener to what is goes on in closed communities, and who can blame the gypsy women for claiming their day when it seems the cycle of pregnancy, housework, babies, pregnancy, housework and babies repeats itself.
if you love the life you live then you'll get a lot more done

Well, now we know the real reason why they 'travel'. It's not because it's their traditional lifestyle, it's to ensure they stay two or three steps ahead of social services. Hopefully there'll be some questions in parliament and this grotesque parody of a medieval society will find itself dragged into what we are pleased to call 'civilisation'.
I found it to be the same as the previous weeks, absolutely gob smackingly awful. I thought to myself, these people are scum.
The way they tried to wreck the paint balling event reminded me of a holiday that i went on a few years back that was ruined by a whole family of these types turning up. They literally wrecked the pools, chucking icecream everywhere, the noise was horrendous and they were removed after 2 days. They have no respect for other peoples land or peace wherever they go. I feel no pity for these people what so ever, it only reminds me what horrible, disrespectful idiots they are and why we dislike them so much.
Now the big topic of conversation this morning on breakfast TV was that they "gypsies" are extremely angry about the title of this programme as apparantely there are two types of traveller.
1. you have the Romanian Gypsy
2. you have the Irish Traveller
The title suggests these people are gypsys but infact according to this morning, they are irish travellers. The Gypsies are fuming about it. They say that the true gypsy is nothing like these perma tanned scum and are actually the opposite.
so, the title should be "big fat irish traveller weddings"
And the police no doubt.
I couldn't help but wonder how any of the young illiterate males ever pass a driving theory test or complete car insurance forms etc.
And when they were dive bombing the people in canoe's
I do! These people are brought up with no decent parental guidance/influences, with no dreams or aspirations, they're denied education and they're shunned from the only society they know, if they try to be anything better!I feel no pity for these people what so ever,
The girls know and accept their fate from an early age, which I find terribly sad

Well im not so such about that. Parental guidance is true Scum breeds scum but the same can be said for anybody, its sad but happens in all walks of life not just Irish Travellers. The one light at the end of the tunnel was the girl who said she does not want that life and is working in a cake shop BUT she was part of the gang that wrecked the paint balling. She had been given an opportunity but it was abused.
I've been thinking about last night's programme and I have a question..
If the Mother's don't go to work and the teenage girls do all the cleaning, cooking and looking after the little ones, which is what the programme told us last night.
Then what DO the Mother's do all day
Plus, where do all the little ones sleep

Whatever it is its not healthy. Did you see the sight of the mothers at the weddings ..... given the younger girls look so glamourous what happens to them once they get married.
As for some of the outfits the mothers had sqeezed themselves into
Personally, i can't wait for next weeks episode, how are these men going to attempt to justify their behaviour towards the women and of course there's their relationships with other men.
Hello TP, how you my little love bucket ? xx
Anyway, it looks to me that once you get married your buggered. Ie. beaten if you dont do as your told, nothing to look forward too except bringing up kids, constant moving, fighting, it must be an absolute nightmare. As you say, you only have to look at the mothers who look haggered, used and abused. Horrible life.
