  • Legendary Dressmaker Thelma Madine has taken on some Gypsy trainees...
    Known for creating some of the most elaborate outfits ever (as seen in Big Fat Gypsy Weddings), Thelma is expanding and to give something back to the community that has made her name, she is taking on inexperienced trainee Gypsy and Traveller girls as apprentice dress makers.
    In Episode 5:
    After pulling the course back from the brink of collapse Thelma now decides that the girls have to start showing her that they can be trusted. With only 5 weeks left of the course and real jobs on offer, the girls have to start proving their worth.
    Thelma gives four girls, Shannon, Kathleen, Vicky and Megan the huge opportunity to work on their first wedding dress for a client but two of the girls squander their chance to impress Thelma and are suspended from the course for dangerous behaviour...
    17 year old Irish traveller Margaret and 17 English traveller Lilyanne make the big mistake of breaking one of Thelma’s golden rules which results in Thelma losing the sale of a very expensive dress. The girls are sent home without pay but Lilyanne is adamant she’s been mistreated and her mother goes on the war path to the factory to confront up to Thelma.
    And after the dramas and tantrums calm down, the girls are given a chance to impress Thelma with their entrepreneurial skills when they are given their own stall to run at the gypsy and traveller Stowe Fair. What could go wrong?

    I hope Victoria doesn’t make it, she’s a self centred bully and only works when it suits her. She’s also very immature. Pity traveller girls tend to leave school at the end of primary school as school is not just academic, there’s so many social skills to be learnt thru the high school years as well as vocational subjects. I hope that Thelma’s “experiment “ shows the younger girls that even staying to 15/16 will be of benefit to them , even if they set up their own school on the site so they can educate the girls their way with selective content seeing as one of the reasons for girls leaving early is that there are topics etc that they don’t want taught to their girls and also means girls can be taught separately from boys and in the traveller way.

    I’ve seen so many videos of Gypsies constantly claiming people are so hateful and prejudice towards them but they fail to realize that most of the opinions are due to their poor behavior. Not everyone is like that but it only takes a few bad apples to spoil the bunch. Thelma is giving them an amazing opportunity and putting her reputation on the line and this is how they repay her? My youngest is 11 and acts way more mature than all of them put together. I hope they stop wasting this opportunity because I would’ve loved to be able to do this.

      I grew up with everyone talking about "pikeys" and "gypos" being really nasty and discriminatory towards travellers. My natural inclination is to stick up for anyone receiving prejudice.
      However, I used to work in a bar restaurant and quite often travellers would come in. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and always served them with a smile. But then the younger kids would literally come behind the bar and try to steal the crisps/sweets/ice-cream. It got so bad we had to padlock everything. The older ones were trying to haggle with me over prices and get really argumentative when you wouldn't give them stuff for a lower cost. Like, dude, it's a set menu what are you talking about.
      Never seen anything like it. Now I have to say, where there's smoke there's fire. It's a real shame for the ones who have their shit together, shouldn't all be tarred with the same brush. But when theft is ingrained into your culture, it's a toxic culture.

    Liliana or Lillian, whatever her name is, does a lot of shady stuff and then gets so defensive when she is called out for it. It's like you know she did it because she is the one throwing the biggest fit. All of them, except for maybe Grace, are spoiled little brats. Its kinda funny, too because for a bunch of girls raised to be so "submissive", they sure do act the opposite. They really are a bunch of ungrateful hellions. It's really no wonder why outsiders won't give them the time of day. They have zero respect for anyone outside of their families. It's entertaining to watch, you can't deny that but I don't blame Thelma at all for feeling like knocking their heads together from time to time. I wouldn't have the patience or the tolerance for that kind of behavior. Thelma is a Saint.

    I can't get over the lack of maturity and understanding that actions have consequences. That these girls act so much younger than their actual age but also get married so much younger, really concerns me. It is clear they do not have the emotional maturity to succeed in a marriage at this age.

      Later on I remembered a version of this kind of expression that someone used at school. He was someone gifted with language - he did a BA in English. “ Sweaty as a Turkish wrestler’s jockstrap”….. it conjured up all sorts of hirsute, odiferous, multilayered nastiness. I loved it then, use it carefully now, like very hot chilli pepper. You are welcome to use it too. With caution. Bearing in mind it was first used to my knowledge 50 years ago…..in Scotland. I have BINGE watched Thelma’s struggles with the gypsy girls. I do think that only 20-30% of the problems are Romany related. The rest are from poverty, lack of education and you would probably get the same from 10, 16 yr old girls from a deprived area anywhere. Remember, theirs is one of the last truely patriarchal societies. The girls are just a reflection of the values of that society.

    This show the maturity of these children and they are actually getting married and having children of their own. These are uneducated, very spoiled and in an odd way entitled children with no idea what responsibility is other than being a man’s, actually a boy’s toy. Being a boy’s toy is their whole goal in life. The sad thing is, they have a brain, they are not allowed to use, some are pretty on the outside, but few are pretty on the inside. They really are like five to ten year olds trying to play grownup. They really don’t have the maturity of an average teenager.
