60 Days with the Gypsies

In this first episode, Ed heads to Chichester to spend time with a group of families who have set up camp on the side of a busy A-road next to a housing estate - only to be moved on after three days. He also meetsa family in Derbyshire with vulnerable elderly members who are waiting for news of a permanent council site.

Ed Stafford attends Appleby Horse Fair, the biggest gathering of Travellers in the UK, which is potentially under threat due to proposed new legislation that will make it harder than ever for Gypsy and Traveller caravans to make the journey to Cumbria for the annual event. He meets a mother of two struggling to find a site to stop on and a scrap metal dealer who spends part of the year on the road and the rest of his time on a strip of land beside a roundabout in Dorset.
