    You can just stick a screen on top of a stereo. It's tinker's magic or something.

    Not that easy i'm afraid, you would need to hire the king of the travellers Joe Joyce to perform a very special ritual in order for that to work, he twiddles the ends of his moustache for exactly 3 minutes and then the magic happens

    I really enjoyed that, jaw dropping stuff and strangely some very likeable characters. A brilliant documentary IMHO.

    I thought that the aul wan who said that the practice needs to end was spot on. She wasn't on the screen long enough to know if she is "likable" as such, but at least she spoke some sense. Fair play (hardy har har) to her for calling the lads out on the stupidity of their defending the family "names" nonsense seeing as so many of the families are all inter related anyway.

    Seriously, 120 grand. We're all bloody mugs going to work every day. And that's those of us who have jobs.


    and we should all feel great that our "universal social charge" has contributed greatly to the prizemoney.:mad:

    I really don't get the outrage about the 120k.
    Don't get me wrong, to me sitting at home with a mortage, bills and a family to feed it's a huge sum of money, but these families are huge so individual contributions from members will be relatively small, plus I doubt it if the winner is keeping every penny of it himself once he gets back home.

    There are far more aspects about travelers , and society in general that anger me far more that two families abilities to raise 120k.

    What annoyed me most was the council apparently spent €4.5m doing that lovely encampment for them - seen at the start of the film. By the end, some 10 years later it was totally trashed. Yet they can gamble €120k on a fight.

    Even if its the Sunday World, this article gives some insight into the background of the characters.
