Just watched the first episode of this new drama about a family of Irish-American travellers who make a break from their traditional life when (mis)fortune hands them the chance to start afresh as rich 'buffers' (settled people). Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver star - the first episode was excellent, I found, a damn set better than any other new series of Irish-American crime-family high-jinks doing the rounds, to name no names.
Hope the rest of the series keeps up.

Its a good show with a descent story line. Ive been following this the last few episodes. Great potential for a few sessions.

I enjoyed episode 1.. was alright but nothing amazing!

I love Izzard though. Haven't had a chance to catch up with the episodes since but hopefully i will in the next week or two.

Has anyone stuck with this ?
