Did any of these people complain when BFGW was aired, which gave a glimpse of real traveler life if you looked beyond the dresses and the sequins? You bet your life they didn't

The only thing I complained about (self utterance) during the airing of BFGW was the distasteful way gypsies were portrayed. That programme was about as misleading as those reality programmes about benefit scroungers.

Some gypsies have earned a reputation for all gypsies. There's a big difference between Roma gypsies and Irish travellers and this programme did little to represent the Roma gypsies.
