I watched the programme open mouthed, although I had seen them on tv before. The Radfords appear to have become a brand, a business. Obviously, the pie making company is not their only source of income - they would never survive on that. Is it a bigger business than the programme portrays, I wonder? The tv rights must make an enormous contribution. 22 children is far too many in this day and age. We are over-populated and this has huge environmental consequences. Have they never heard of contraception? How much more child-bearing can Sue’s body take? Thank goodness most families stick to 2, 3 or 4 children nowadays. I must say, though, that the children all appear to be happy, well loved and well cared for, but they can’t get much individual attention. I think the Radfords receive so much attention from we viewers because it’s so unusual to have a family of this size nowadays, but, sorry to say, I can’t help thinking they are rather irresponsible. It’s not my business to say that, but that’s how I feel. Will they produce more children - I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we’re watching 23 Kids and Counting this time next year.
