Let me know how you get on with that.

I was flicking through the TV and when I stumbled upon and ad for this and I thought for a second that RTE were doing a sketch show with blackface.

Looks good, am particularly looking forward to the diamonties ( or whatever they're called), fake tan and outrageous dresses on 5 year olds. Kelly's 2nd place on The Voice hasn't quite become the gravy train she expected with no record deal and only getting gigs at the odd country fair or wedding....nice little earner from RTE then. Do they have to publish how much this costs?

Utterly disgusted with this cheap, tripe TV. Shame on RTE, who gives a flying buck about the lives of these individuals, only themselves. I wouldn't watch this dung if RTE paid me..

I went to school with some of the younger members of the family and I can tell you already that this show is going to be hyped up to the max and only loosely depict their actual day to day lives, aka 'regular' lives.

Actually there were cameras at my school's debs this year following one of the girls around and no one took much notice. I've seen them shooting bits and pieces around town as well. Will be interesting to see the final product.

None of The Voice of Ireland winners or runners up have done well after the show

BabysCoffee

Anyone watching?

somesoldiers

Yeah, needs subtitles. Lovely looking girls if they left down the spray gun

BabysCoffee

I'm liking it!

somesoldiers

There is an innocent about her really, she is just a kid with very little life experience outside her immediate family. Wish her luck but too middle the road

traveller woman could make a killing running a fitness business

I like her dress but those bridesmaid dresses!!!

amdublin

The sister (who is getting married) is very pretty. And a very well spoken young lady.

Odelay

Some serious cleavage....... but it is an interesting show, enjoying it.

What's the craic with the soundtrack, about 50 tunes played in the last half hour, one for nearly each scene.

BabysCoffee

Looks like they are doing a nice job on the hall

BabysCoffee

Eeek the weather!!!

BabysCoffee

Makeup on the babies!!!!

amdublin

Makeup on the babies :eek:

somesoldiers

Ah sure the licence payers can afford the soundtrack, the recession is over don't you know,

Atlantic Dawn

Can't understand the spraytan mullarkey, as a bloke I find it rotten, hugging one would be like rubbing up against a freshly Ronsealed garden fence. Thought the colour was on the way out on the TV first until I spotted a few normal skinned blokes.

amdublin

She is prettier with less makeup

Ah gosh, so young.


She is very sweet......but just a child

amdublin

It's like Moulin Rouge in white

somesoldiers

I hope there will be young ones dancing always the funniest part of Big Gypsy

amdublin

Remind me again about the "mini bride" in traveller tradition

tayto lover

The limos will set them back a bit.

First and only fella, pure innocent!

All the bridesmaids and then just before the bride went down the aisle they had this little one with a veil on.

I've tried watching it, but the Constant sound track is really annoying!! :mad:

Do they think this show is like Geordie Shore or something?

Subtitles would be good also...

Exactly, they would even have a new tune for a lad visiting the jacks.

amdublin

The innocence of them

ShagNastii

It is in the same vein but it's a million miles away from the channel 4 production.

They actually come across like a wholly likeable "settled" family.

somesoldiers

When you see the teachers going round checking the punch in Grease says the mam. Ha, never saw that in What happens in Kavos

Atlantic Dawn

RTÉ should have a market for this show in the UK, Channel 4 or Channel 5 will snap it up.

somesoldiers

Next week will be great with CHL
