My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding (2010)

Episode Overview

In the eyes of Gypsy and traveller women, their wedding day is a fairy tale moment where they dream of being a princess. However, the everyday reality within the Gypsy community reveals that men hold the power. This documentary explores the aggressive environment dominated by traveller men, where conflicts are often resolved through physical confrontations, and social standing is determined by the car one drives. Paddy, a former bare-knuckle boxer and the leader of a traveller site in Salford, shares insights into the life of a traveller man and the ways he ensures his wife, Roseanne, remains content.
