Feel so sorry for Mohammed's wife - Noreen is it? She looks bloody shattered and wants to live differently and he is totally resistant. Agree, he does come across as annoying. She's just said her heart is breaking :(

OMG - how cringey is that hotel guy. And I NEVER usually cringe Blush

MissMogwi · 05/03/2013 21:46

Hotel man just made me cringe. Confused

That mess must be so depressing. I'm not fussy about tidiness at all but that is something else. It's chaos.

MajaBiene · 05/03/2013 21:47

I had to turn over.

JazzAnnNonMouse · 05/03/2013 21:48

I think I would get secretly sterilised if I were her but it might be down to editing?

Does the older son of the radfords not want to be a part of the programme?

FatimaLovesBread · 05/03/2013 21:48

Has the eldest boy moved out? I haven't seen him.
The eldest two girls are lovely

I agree about the mess. I really am not the tidiest person but that is pretty horrid and dirty.

Hotel guy was really cringey! I also can't believe they didn't accept the condom! Shock

makingdoo · 05/03/2013 21:50

Feel so sorry for Mohammad's wife. She's so obviously overwhelmed.

The other family seem to cope quite well and have a good system. The dad seems so proactive. They need to do a Dad Swap for a week so he can sort out that cluttered house!

chubbychipmonk · 05/03/2013 21:51

A phd & 7 degrees???????? Maybe he should start philosophising about the wonders of contraception!

blackice · 05/03/2013 21:52

I would be surprised if the Salim children aren't taken into care following this programme being broadcast. That is neglect.

Flumpyflumps · 05/03/2013 21:53

Eewww! Hotel dude with the condom, I'll remove this, what the actual???!! Cringey cringey cringey!
Noreen was on,y 16 when she was married off to this knob, 11 kids and so much stuff crammed into that house, fell awful for her.

Yotamsrazor · 05/03/2013 21:54

Yes, wouldn't it be interesting to do a husband swap!!!!!!

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 05/03/2013 21:54

I would be pretty shocked if they weren't taken into care as well, especially as he comes across so controlling and it almost seems like his Wife is being forced to have more kids.

16 kids and counting Dad swap would be brilliant.

MajaBiene · 05/03/2013 21:55

blackice, that is nowhere near the threshold for taking kids into care.

Why does the Radford mum iron every day? I can't remember the last time I ironed anything and I only have one kid.

DyeInTheEar · 05/03/2013 21:55

Can you really parent that many DCs or is it just crowd control?

Flumpyflumps · 05/03/2013 21:55

Mrs Salim looks really downtrodden , he looks like he wants all the fun and none of the work.

RedPencils · 05/03/2013 21:55

Yes to a dad swap. He obviously loves all his children but he needs a bit of whipping into shape.

smellysocksandchickenpox · 05/03/2013 21:55

yer woman from the radfords seems to me like she's hoping to be a kerry catona / katie price type career reality show person, it all comes across very rehersed with her

other family - Sad

hotel guy - you couldn't use those "sexy" things after having him reading them out to you could you?

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 05/03/2013 21:56

I think the Radford family can parent, I don't think the Salim family can.

Did you see how depressed she looked when he started saying how they wanted more kids? This is heart breaking.

ggirl · 05/03/2013 21:57

it's not bad enough for the kids to be taken into care !

JazzAnnNonMouse · 05/03/2013 21:57

Lol at kids going to care .. It might not be what you would think is good but the kids aren't neglected!

RedPencils · 05/03/2013 21:57

Dear Radford mum, chuck your iron away and put your feet up more
Yours red.
