Hit show 22 Kids and Counting didn’t air on Channel 5 last Sunday (February 11) and fans have been left wondering why.

The show follows parents Sue Radford and Noel Radford and the 22 children they have together. Described as Britain’s biggest family, the first episode aired on Channel 5 back in April 2021.

Ever since then, the show has continued to be a success with a total of four series. Along the way, the family have gained a lot of attention.
