Big Fat Gypsy Weddings

8:30pm Thursday, June 21 on TV One

TV ONE’s runaway hit of 2011 is back with more brides, more drama, and more outrageous wedding dresses than ever before.

Staying true to the much-loved first series, seven brand new episodes offer unprecedented access to members of traveller and gypsy communities, to gain an even greater insight into their world.

This series delves deeper and explores issues ranging from how travellers are affected by crime, punishment, honour, heritage, money, eviction laws, education, family, and their complex relationship with the non-gypsy community.

As well as meeting new faces, we also catch up on the lives of some familiar favourites, following the births, engagements, marriages, qualifications, evictions and divorces that have happened since the last series.

This series examines what it really means to be a gypsy or traveller in Britain today – for better or for worse.
