Series which finds out what happened to people featured in past BBC documentaries. In 1980 the BBC made a film about gypsies in East Anglia in an attempt to find out the reality behind the stereotypes. While some gypsies were prospering, relations with the wider public remained uncomfortable and ongoing problems with sites were threatening the entire gypsy way of life. A generation later, cameras return to the main family featured in the film to find out if they've become closer to mainstream Britain, and whether they're still fighting for their future.
