I'm not watching, is it shite? is it sad because he's someone who ponces about having dcs and leaving them,?

MmeLindt · 07/07/2008 22:45

How incredibly sad.

melpomene · 07/07/2008 22:46

He is an alcoholic. They showed him and his wife wheeling multipacks of Strongbow home in a buggy

Alambil · 07/07/2008 22:47

suprised that they're living on incapacity benefits?

No, me neither.

Very, very sad

MmeLindt · 07/07/2008 22:47

Sad because the children look neglected. The 14yo has to put the little one to bed.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 07/07/2008 22:47

He calls his children little swines.

there is literally no room to move in their house

missed the opener - are they all her children too? surely she's too young?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 07/07/2008 22:49

They are doing their best in a far from ideal situation.

I feel for the children, I really do. The older ones who are taking on responsibilities that they really ought not to be. I don't feel able to condemn the parents though. I just feel very sad for them all.

AbstractMouse · 07/07/2008 22:49

I didn't see the start, do they actually have 20 children living with them?

umberella · 07/07/2008 22:50

I missed the beginning - do they all have the same mother?

wannaBe · 07/07/2008 22:50

why in the name of God would the bbc want to make a programme about this.

It's carcrash television at its worst.

ButterflyMcQueen · 07/07/2008 22:50

it is almost too shocking too be true

umberella · 07/07/2008 22:50

poor little souls.

MmeLindt · 07/07/2008 22:51

She is the 3rd wife.

Oh, God. Selling the presents now to buy drink.

Isn't it depressing, what hope do the children have for the future?

melpomene · 07/07/2008 22:51
