Romany Roads - Series 1 - Episode 2

Series on the history of Gypsies and their culture. In this concluding programme Gypsies themselves recount their history in Britain since the Second World War: the profound change as lorries and trailers replaced horses and caravans; the changes in agriculture, land use and legislation which made nomadic life difficult, then criminal. Simon Evans explores the problems Gypsies face today even on land they own, and the remarkable resilience of this people and their culture.
