Anyone watching?

I loved the previous programs regarding different aged children, this seems to be about the same children and their siblings.

Be very interesting watching.

Am a nanny so get to see the sibling dynamic with/without parents present and it is different.

Iguess yes that's true. I was a au pair yrs ago (I realise it's not the same in terms of qualifications etc) but I can obviously appreciate your point.

I, personally, would find Tia very hard work...!

Alfie is amazing!

Little Alfie is adorable and very mature it seems. I'm glad he's been reunited with Emily.

Love Alfie, Emily and Daisy.

It's a shame they haven't got any brother-brother siblings to see their interactions.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 13/07/2016 20:53

Mabel is my favourite.

Yes Burn I'd have liked to see that too. I have a DS and and due DC2 in 2 weeks. We think it'll be a boy and it would've been nice to see that interaction.

Looks like their might be brothers next week...

BurnTheBlackSuit · 13/07/2016 21:03

And nothing to do with the programme, but did the announcer afterwards have a Welsh Jamacan accent- it was really nice but very different !

nilbyname · 13/07/2016 21:04

Gorgeous children. My kids he along mostly. It is my proudest achievement.

I was actually surprised how lovely they all were to their siblings, it was great. Also, as someone with siblings on the autistic spectrum, it was great to see Theo interacting with the others and so excited about the lambs.

Watching on +1. My two are 3.5 years apart they were BEST friends for the first 4 years but now (youngest is 5) they fight a lot BUT they'd defend each other to the death. They're boy then girl.

TimidYetCurious · 14/07/2016 22:33

Alfie was such a kind little boy.

jay55 · 14/07/2016 22:41

Alfie could have his own show.
I love how he wants to marry Emily so they can live in the same house. Quite remarkable how they've kept the friendship going.

nilbyname · 14/07/2016 23:03

He's quite an exceptional little kid! We need more Alfie's in this world. But children learn what they see, I bet his parents are lovely.

hollyisalovelyname · 16/07/2016 13:11

The programme was so lovely- it would do your heart good to watch it ( with all the awful things happening in the world)
Alfie is such a lovely child and kind. His relationship with Emily was so sweet.
Is Tyler the boy on the lower end of the autistic spectrum? What a cutie.
He really engaged with the lamb feeding to the exclusion of his little sister. It's a little hard on his little sister- but she got emotional support from some of the other children.
Tia is a strong personality.
I loved Mabel and her sister.
They were all so cute.
Congratulations to the parents on their lovely children.

Another programme I liked, which you lot might enjoy, is B Is For Book.

It's a BBC documentary that was on BBC Four, and is available on catch up. It follows a group of primary school children as they learn to read.

Just thought I would mention it here in case anyone's interested. Smile

burntheblacksuit I noticed her accent too. It was gorgeous, so unusual.

Love this series. Tia is hilarious but Alfie is the star of the show. So cute how all the older ones behave like mini adults around their little siblings!
