Gypsy Girl was a TV series that ran on CITV in early 2001, based on the books The Parsley Parcel and Gold and Silver Water by Elizabeth Arnold. It centred around a gypsy girl (Freya Boswell) and her family, who lived in a typical gypsy caravan on the corner of a typical suburban street. Her great-grandmother was played by Eleanor Bron. She was often called "Gyppo", a derogatory term, by a boy who disliked her.
Famous quotes containing the words gypsy and/or girl:
“You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me.”
—Ira Gershwin (1896–1983)
“At thirty years a woman asks her lover to give her back the esteem she has forfeited for his sake; she lives only for him, her thoughts are full of his future, he must have a great career, she bids him make it glorious; she can obey, entreat, command, humble herself, or rise in pride; times without number she brings comfort when a young girl can only make moan.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
