Really weird it got deleted but unlike other deleted threads on these boards they don't stay up blank with a deletion message.. they actually just disappear.

I can only assume they got slated :(

Wish mn would say why threads get pulled

I think if you do a tv Show you know there may be comments about your family

If that’s what it was

I like th3 way the made lockdown summer fun for kids in the garden

The Redford threads usually get deleted.

There’s one very specific element of their relationship we’re not allowed to notice or mention.

Radford!

teaandcustardcreamsx · 23/02/2021 14:47

I have two questions ... how the hell do they get around/drive as a whole family and do they go on holiday?!

PegLegAntoine · 23/02/2021 14:51

Oh didn’t realise there was a new show.

I’ll probably end up jealous if they made lockdown more fun than I did for my measly three children 😬

Thanks blondes - interesting that it’s channel 5 (also why I hadn’t noticed as I don’t check that app much) - I could’ve sworn it was always on c4

Tattle has a long thread and its been mentioned the Radfords threatened legal action.

Twospaniels · 23/02/2021 17:28

Why did Daniel have a driving lesson with Dad and no L plates on the car!

22 kids is ridiculous but so long as the tax payer doesn’t have to foot the bill, then let them get on with it.

ThatsnotmyBorishishairistoneat · 23/02/2021 17:33

I really enjoy watching them. I have idea how they do it but they seem happy and well cared for. I thought it was hilarious Noel got the baby’s name wrongGrin Hope they sorted it.

It did annoy me that it was said they run the whole family on £30k when they get lots of freebies and assumed they get paid for the show. There is no way they live their lifestyle on that amount.

Everybodysaycheese · 23/02/2021 17:34

Apparently they didn't like how they were portrayed by channel 4 and didn't want to do any further filming for them... which is why they're now on 5.

MsMiaWallace · 23/02/2021 17:36

Just watched the show.
I really do love this family.
Sue is amazing!

TonightMatthew · 23/02/2021 17:39

To be fair he said it's £30k to pay the house and food bills. Not that everything costs that, as it's obviously way more - they spent £3-400 on Hallie's birthday on last night's episode plus the garden, hot tub etc and they'd had a trip to Australia cancelled. Flights alone would have been £20k for that!

I thought they seemed really happy and the pies looked amazing. Not keen on just sticking an 'e' on the end of Heidi to make it match the others but that's my own preference.

I noticed that about the L plates on the car too!

breatheslowandtrust · 23/02/2021 17:39

I was amazed that they supposedly started the online business during this lockdown, as I was sure they did this in the last programme and have had an online shop for several years now!

I actually don't give a crap whether or not tax payers foot the bill or not. Dont see why that's the only thing that stands between one set of opinions and the other..

This too

Exhausteddog · 23/02/2021 18:07

I found the narratives within the programme slightly mixed -
One minute sad music, pic of the pie shop closed in bleak weather, narrator talking about "financial ruin" and "so many mouths to feed"

Next minute, spending £350 on a 4 year olds birthday, having hot tub, garden bar, and garden revamp....

(Although some of these might have been gifted)

Also I think they swapped the minibus for a range rover and another car....but still not sure they would all fit in if they were going out in one go.

Dobbyafreeelf · 23/02/2021 18:12

They have 2, 7 seater cars now. The minibus they had wasn't particularly comfortable and several of the older ones drive and have cars themselves now & they don't often need more than 14 seats.

I think it was filmed out of order as sae the hot tub and fake grass at beginning

Then later on see the garden being made

I assume that flights and hotels are paid for abs mentioned in her blog or whatever she does

Same with hot tub etx

Ans agree those pies look yummy
