Caravan Queens: Series 1 Episode 1

[@RL-zg6kq]

I worked in a pharmacy close to a traveller's site for many years. There was so much prejudice and many objections to the site. I've never experienced a more friendly community , the most appreciative customers we had. They were always so grateful for everything that we'd do for them. It made me sad to see they were surprised to be accepted. Keep spreading your word girls and educate people to accept people at face value x

[@loulou1356]

So happy to see people are finally taking note of this antizyganism bullshit. I grew up with travellers around me both Irish and romany, one of the Irish traveller families took me in when my parents didn't care and are honestly the most hard working, clean, respectful people I've met and once you're classed as one of their own you are family forever. I have so much love for this community it's so nice to see it being represented properly💛

Here from THIS MORNING

[@lornabirch9000]

Well done girls. It’s about time a normal Traveller spoke out about how it actually is

[@dannyshepherd8950]

I’m a Gypsy and I just wanna say I’m so proud of what your doing 😊🤗💚💚💚

[@alicedavidson6955]

Sat in my trailer watching thank you for sharing ❤️ I'm actually a trained pilot and own my own aviation company and totally proud of my Irish traveller roots and my achievements

[@themacsisterss]

Wow that is amazing!! Well done 💕

[@tonyfordgolf9438]

You two should have your own tv show! Great personalities, Beautiful girls!

[@themacsisterss]

Omg ! Thank you we wish aha

[@tonyfordgolf9438]

@Indy M RSOLE!

[@ilovesunflowers2757]

I'm a non traveller, I'd just like to say I think traveller girls are shamazing!! Always loved your style, especially the long hair. It's a shame there is so much negativity xx

[@nala7658]

I came here after watching you girls on this morning and I just want to say...good for you ladies, it’s about time travellers stood up to the stereo type and educating people is the only way to make changes! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 seriously applaud you both!

[@jumokeonifade85]

Me too 🫣

[@TheSingingkatie]

Absolutely love you two ❤️ although I just want to add that we do have our own ‘language’ if you will. It’s called Gamon or Can’t. It was made up by the traveling community using a mix of different Irish words and twisting them backwards, therefore settled people couldn’t understand what they were saying, which was the purpose of creating the language. Just goes to show that travellers weren’t as stupid as they made us out to be. Love how your spreading awareness throughout the community ❤️

[@ednaninnis3251]

Well done girls just seen you on TV,, we need happy people like you just now,, bless you 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@fabulousmag]

They're both Fabulous! x

[@fabulousmag]

Episode two is now live! Watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mojHmHZ7o5qUn6c ❤️

[@SuperIris27]

Amazing I had the horrible thoughts about travellers till I met my other half he is an irish traveller and I've learned so much about travellers since being with him like you said theres bad and good in every community! Well done girls for showing the truth about travellers all the best x

[@Clara-eu3mp]

I'm glad you were able to open your mind!

[@homirasharif3516]

Are there travellers in Denmark?

[@1nonsmoker]

i wouldnt be able to stop looking into their eyes, beautiful girls

[@naomigore1642]

Well done girls you are doing the Irish proud!💗One thing... Don't underestimate your culture - Irish travellers are not around for a couple of hundred years... They are around longer than the 1100's!! So you are richer in culture than you thought! Wishing you both the very best. 💕

[@austinhenry6377]

I was so impressed with you two ladies on the This Morning show. Ye came across as two lovely ladies. I am proud that you are Irish. I wish we could change the way the world views the Travelling community. I wish you both the best of luck. ❤❤

[@naomigore1642]

It is already being changed with mavericks like these 2. Social media has a lot of faults, but it also has its pro's and is helping to bring more education on ethnic minorities and helping to stop bias by helping others understand that we are all different flavours of the same ice cream - different, but all human beings who share the same thoughts, fears, feelings and love as each other. We just express ourselves differently. But without the masks and traditions we are all the same. One love!! 🎭💗

[@VelcroKittie]

@@naomigore1642 Love your post xx

[@TravisBruce]

My grandad is irish who sadly passed and has the last name of o'reilly and I watched your this morning episode and couldn't believe that my family last name would be on the list of not being aloud in. I have loads of irish family probably some irish travellers your accents are everything I wish I had your accent your both so gorgeous and I just love traveller's your just all amazing

[@Catty19748]

Most astonishing blue eyes I've ever seen!

[@grahamscott1547]

What a great job you are both doing girls. I think it’s important to educate people and like you say “please don’t tarnish people with the same brush” ! I could listen to you both all day lol you explain everything so easily and elegantly too!... Oh,and can I just say how beautiful you both look too! All the best girls. xx

[@themacsisterss]

Thank you so much ☺️💕

[@eileenlewis303]

What lovely sweet girls you both are, you are doing a great job in dispelling the common myths surrounding the travelling community, it's enlightening for those people unfamiliar with the travelling community's way of life. Well done girls! You are a breath of fresh air 💚👌

[@vanessak3212]

You guys should get your own show!! This is seriously so interesting. Sending all my love from America! Xo

[@ketrianrenolsin9608]

I saw you on this morning and decided to check you out as I thought you were great in the interview (lol especially at the end when you both said the same thing) I am really enjoying this so far.

[@michellewalls6869]

My brother is a non traveller but worked with travellers for over 10 years the purcel family great family u girls are amazing x

[@clre3013]

Thank you both for doing this series love learning about the traveler community ❤️ also you are both absolutely stunning 😍 you look like twins, and your eyes are insane xxx

[@chloereynolds5925]

Yeah I work in a shop and i know one of the major misconceptions is that all travellers and gypsys steal but that's not the case at all, sometimes we get the odd one but like you said we also have people of every nationality and culture who steal as well and every one our regular traveller customers are always very polite and definitely pay bless them and it's very interesting to learn about your culture so keep going girls ❤️x

[@kellie-annebain772]

there's good and bad everywhere but differences between community's is what makes people interesting people negative views of travellers is purely down to not being educated about your community in loving this can't wait till next vid! fascinating keep telling your truths cos that's what changes opinion well done!

[@billiejay2253]

This information was so needed. Now more than ever! Well done chicks❤

[@Hunlover123601]

i love this so much, no holds barred question asking is the fastest way to learn about other people ❤️

[@suzanneduff327]

Here from This Morning, I have to say the "their dirty comment ", wow I know traveler's and they take so much pride in their homes and selfs, better than most non traveler's infact!

[@sylviarogers8362]

Fascinating, well done girls, saw you on This Morning 👏

[@1965deebee]

A credit to the travelling community... Two beautiful...intelligent young ladies.....well done ladies..... love the videos..👍👍

[@Blind-Ghost-1980]

Just seen you guys on This Morning. You were wonderful. My 3 sons mum is a traveller. Slightly different style like. More like a hippy traveller. English traveller, even though she can get an Irish passport. I've stayed on the site a few times and alway enjoyed it. I hate the way you've been turned away from places just because of your way of life. That's pure discrimination. Hopefully this channel will get through to some of the ignorance out there. I don't go on TikTok though. Good luck ladies. I'll make sure to watch all your videos and recommend it to others. Take care.

[@MissGretch14]

Fantastic ❤️ Can't wait for your next video. I have noticed that people have very strong feelings about Travellers, either for or against. Those that are the harshest are usually the most ignorant! X

[@belfreybatbobz7602]

You girls are fab! I'm not a traveller but I have so much respect for you both and your lifestyle 💙

[@artanddemind]

I’m very excited about this was just speaking about how the culture is so different 😘

[@clairecrichton9783]

I think yous are fabulous travellers makes yous no diffrent from rest of us keep up good work girls xxx

[@maltababe2678]

Proud to be a English gypsy it’s so true good and bad everybody

[@tammyjane3676]

I love this! Thank you for educating us non travellers. Its important that different cultures openly answer questions as you both are, so it gives people an understanding of your lives. Ps both of you are stunning, and I wish you the best in the future. X

[@elizabethryder816]

Well done to you both...be proud of who you are! x

[@foxglove8836]

Here from `This Morning` :-) Your stunning, If you don't mind me saying. Most people don't have a gleaming oven like yours lol Q. How have you coped with the lock down, Having such a big family?

[@kerrywatt4558]

I have 5 sisters and although we aren't travellers we are extremely close :) a lot of people don't get it but your sibling is the best friend you ll ever have, extremely frustrating and annoying but they're part of you

[@themacsisterss]

Yes exactly! a sister is a ready made best friend & they understand you better then anyone !

[@nala7658]

Exactly right! Family is everything!

[@kathrynoconnell6033]

Have to say, well done. Keep up the good work. My experience with travelers hasn't always been great and unfortunately, the reputation is due to the very anti social behavior of many, however, you 2 certainly shouldn't be tarred with the same brush and also, you do not have the same accent as many travelers have! If you can change the habits of those that cause the trouble the traveler reputation will change. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@kellygibson7168]

I think your both great and I can't wait to see more of your lives x

[@Clara-eu3mp]

Apparently, Irish Traveller culture might date back nearly 900 years!

[@summerdouglas3722]

You both seem so lovely!! Very interesting, can’t wait to watch the next episodes 🥳 xx

[@katemartine7679]

I think you girls are great!!! Absolutely beautiful too :) girl power. !!

[@fintonmainz7845]

Well done ladies.

[@emmawaghorn9374]

Well done girls, very well communicated and your both so adorable. I am currently researching the inequalities faced by your community for my public health degree and this has been really helpful. So informative and really interesting, well admired xxx Thank you xxx

[@TP-kn4to]

Out of curiosity, is it the traveller community that have coordinated meet ups in central london ?

[@future288ify]

A lot of travellers do get pulled out of school early it’s been documented on several tv documentaries following travellers lives

[@nala7658]

Some do, most don’t! My girls have done brilliantly in school and my oldest at 19 is still in full time education and has several qualifications. Don’t believe everything you see on tv.

[@ianmelonie6440]

Well done girl I’ve have had a lot of Romany Gypsy friends and met some great travellers I have a hell of a job trying to convince my friends

[@sibellakingston52]

Just remember though, Irish Travellers are not Romany Gypsies. 👍🏼

[@rhia2335]

Amazing girls! Just found your channel. Love your accent, sound more like northern Irish 😊😊

[@jamesward8041]

I'm also an Irish Traveller and I really like this

[@samworrall7745]

Nice one girls!! This is wonderful!! Love it.....

[@eggsellent11]

These girls are true irish beautys

[@TwinTravels40]

Godbless ladies & well done for being proud travellers. Very informative true information 👍 I hope people in the future can welcome travellers better in the future & I am sorry humans treated you so badly in the past

[@claredockerty8319]

Such a good video. Thank you for sharing your cultural background. So enlightening

[@musicisthetruth6535]

I think a lot of people are confused between theives cant (feel etc ) and shelta which is our ancestral language that we once spoke . Travller history is complex as our cluture is a continuation of the celtic nomads who refused to settle and farm within ireland . We are our own people .

[@dulciemidwinter5990]

My goodness, you are very beautiful girls. Stunning!

[@Christine-ty6bj]

Hi Girls! Just saw you on This Morning and now subscribed to your channel. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kylieburgess5379]

[@fabulousmag]

They really are Fabulous! x

[@annagibson3413]

Brilliant stuff good for you. :-) You rock.

[@belfreybatbobz7602]

I live in England in a place called little lever and I've worked in all the pubs and travellers are barred from the pubs because we've had them kick off so much smashing glasses and allsorts I know its not all travellers but they give you a bad name :( it's so sad!

[@loulou1356]

They don't give them a bad name though do they, that's a minority acting like fools.

[@ACHGW4172]

I've seen country people going into pubs and stirring up trouble

[@tia6752]

So interesting!!

[@davidcullen1311]

Well done girls -people are people -good luck xx

[@Guitars00077]

I don’t know if this is a silly question but how do you fit all your belongings in a caravan (if you live in one)? I could barely fit my stuff in a large flat so I can’t imagine trying to condense all of my stuff into a much smaller space especially sharing it with a partner and/or family 🙈 P.s I think it’s amazing that you’re both doing this! I’m genuinely fascinated with how travellers live 💕

[@themacsisterss]

Episode 2 explains our home , so stay tuned to find out 💕

[@JackNapier420]

Two absolute beauties 🔥

[@emberdeacon9591]

i love my culture🥰 traveller and proud

[@emberdeacon9591]

@northsidedub1 thank you x

[@johndalzell2985]

Lovely blue peepers beors ,a beautiful in sight to your souls ...no one on this earth has the right to discriminate ...

[@shaziajabeen4310]

Stunning sisters! you need a youtube chanel

[@enigmaticbird]

I lived next door to family of travellers for around 10 years. They were loud (semi detached house) but there were 10 kids, 9 were boys. Any family of 12 would have been loud. I was always treated with utmost respect by them. Every neighbour I had after they left were way more trouble. But my feeling is you girls attending college etc are the exception to the rule compared to those in my area.

[@annaroberts3099]

This was great and so interesting!

[@VelcroKittie]

This is fantastic, and well done girls for the work you are doing. I'm not a traveller but I have been saying for so long now that you just can't paint everyone with the same brush. It's so lazy, bigoted and downright ugly. You take a look right now at what is happening in Finglas or Drogheda with the drug gangs. The vast majority of those lads are not travellers. If we were to reverse the logic so many have towards travellers, you would quickly start believing that every non-traveller is caught up in drug gangs. Of course we all know that's not true, so why are we so slow to accept that there are some lovely and wonderful travellers who are not out to cause problems? Surely this isn't a difficult hurdle to overcome?

[@Maria-ml6qq]

I love that there doing this because I want people to know what actually goes on I hate stereotypes

[@dccd4]

In America we want to know everything!🥰

[@sophiebyrnes1124]

Love these girls 🤣 there gas and there tiktoks are so funny 🤣x

[@NANA-iy5oq]

Well done girls

[@alicesmith8582]

Love it well done girls

[@lisaduffy5853]

I really enjoyed this thank you for sharing 😊

[@destinyccxo]

I noticed Romani Gypies weren’t mentioned is that because they’re worlds apart or? Don’t know loads just was wondering as in a lot of “reality” tv shows especially in America they say they’re Romani Gypsies. Can tell I’m gonna love this series ✨great to educate people and debunk stereotypes

[@kieranlock3070]

There are many different groups of us. A lot of our younger generation don't like the word Gypsy for a start, as it's a term given to us by settled folks to degrade us. Our people,often referred to as GRT(gypsies, romani and travellers)are varied and it's always polite to ask what we prefer, for example I'm Kaulo Romani(welsh romani) but there is English romani as well, our people came from beyond india and then crossed into Istanbul, we were then conscripted in huge parts to the Ottoman empire, and basically fled from there all over the world which led to different diaspora.Pavee or Minceir (irish travellers) who are descendants of bronze age nomads from the british isles and remained a secular society. Roma are often eastern european, but there is Manush( french diaspora) or Kaulo (spannish diaspora) the Dom people. Many different types, all with roots in the same languages and customs, but all quite different as well. I speak Romanes but my dialect would be difficult for a Manush or Pavee to understand if they did at all, the same way Pavee speak Cant for example. We worship different religions, and a lot of us roam around certain parts of different countries for work, it became a way of life after suffering through slavery, roughly three pogroms, and before then we were nomads and our history and culture revolves around that.

[@lucygale336]

Fair play girls 💖💜

[@dragonclaws9367]

I would love to go to the horse fair. Seems like really nice stock and vanners are so pretty. I'd have to get there from America some how. ❤️ I want to buy a big black and white floofy.

[@amlaaaa479]

Hi Queens, first, you look amazing and I am really excited to watch these myth-busting videos. Here is one thing I really struggle with: I've seen quite a bit of neglected animals (looking starved) on traveller's compounds and I know at least some travellers who train their dogs to hunt rabbits (they even ask on Facebook for people who want to get rid of their pet bunnies). I love all animals so I find that absolutely horrible. I'm not sure what my question is, maybe whether you think there is a movement away from animal cruelty of this kind?

[@TrixiesTricks]

Thank you for doing this ❤️

[@stevensee9379]

I had a driving lesson with Lizzy what an interesting person. Take time and watch the videos.

[@suesmith4366]

Love it 😎

[@kellyday3124]

Very well said girls 😊👍

[@rachelshields2383]

Love these two!

[@michelleshearer2697]

lovely girls , never understood why people discriminate against the travelling community . There is certainly more bad in everything and im sure it is a tiny minority compared to non travellers . Would happily live in a caravan/trailer .

[@rachelw9360]

Fair play gals!

[@dawn5002]

Saw on this morning

[@deee1776]

Why do a lot of travellers / gypsies feel that they can park up anywhere (after breaking into private land / public land) and leave THOUSANDS of pounds worth of damage and rubbish???

[@DiamondDivaPrincess]

So interesting!
