Actually I thought they're called "pikeys" but I didn't know how offensive that term is, and I like the sound of "gypsies" better.
In the film they call themselves "travellers" and, in any case, they're a lot like Brad Pitt's family in Snatch, which was the first, and only, time I'd even heard of these people until I saw Knuckle.
Wikipedia tells me that there are 10,000 to 40,000 of them living in the US. Weird.
