Who's with me? ...

Yup, you got it ... Tonight, 9pm, Channel 4, Big Fat Gypsy Weddings.  I'm all over this bad boy.

Last week it had me glued to the screen in awe of gypsy culture and specifically their dating rituals that involve 'Grabbing' (sexual assault, much?!) and their over the top weddings where the Bride gets to dress as the biggest loo roll holder ever!! Lucky girl.

My favourite part of last weeks episode was when this particular girl started lapdancing while waiting on her limo to the Church.  Yes, you heard me, lapdancing ... well she wasn't on anyones lap but she was obviously practising for later!?  ... aherm. 

Yes, that's right, that's a massive split up the front of her dress!
And my jaw dropped in horror at this wee girls Holy Communion when she and her mates got to ride in a limo sans chaperone having a proper rave up with fake champagne (why?), karaoke and booming music. Rezpect.
Her brother... not her Husband.  They do it young, but not that young.

I won't even mention the dress and tiara!!

We have another 4 episodes of this to go so every Tuesday at 9pm is blocked out in my diary until it's finished.

Best. TV. Ever.

    lol I'm in the US, so I've missed it. I don't know if it's a common saying there, but where I'm from people will say they look like a bunch of gypsy's moving, if they pack a lot to go on vacation. :)

    It's so addictive. That said....wasn't too happy about the whole "grabbing" ritual. Did not sit right with me one iota.

    Love this, the bit with the little boy hanging out of the limousine window was one of the worst things I've seen on TV for a while!

    I agree about the "grabbing", in our world thats sexual harassment!

    however it is awesome viewing, very interesting and I do enjoy a nose at wedding dresses!
