Noel and Sue Radford are rarely seen without at least a few of their 22 children, so have understandably been savouring some alone time together as they holiday in Dubai.

However, pie company owner Noel had some strong criticisms about a roast dinner the two had eaten in the United Arab Emirates city.

The two are famed for parenting Britain’s largest family, with the famous parents continuing to feature in Channel 5’s 22 Kids and Counting, which stared back in 2012 as 15 Kids and Counting.

Thee family also own a Lancashire pie business and make extra funds through their social media channels, where they enjoy updating fans on the latest family goings-on away from the series.

The two most recent YouTube vlogs from the family have featured Noel, 53 and Sue, 49, sharing parts of their Dubai holiday, a late anniversary celebration

A main focus of the vlog is the food they’ve been sampling, and the couple were left less-than-impressed by a roast dinner they decided to splurge on, with Noel labelling it “awful”.

“I hate complaining, never complain about anything,” Noel began, adding: “But we went out for a meal today – for a Sunday roast, and it’s the worst one we ever had.”

“You weren’t really impressed with the Sunday Roast, were you?” Sue remarked.

“The Sunday Roast – awful,” the baker replied. A more diplomatic Sue admitted: “I mean, It wasn’t great, but I think it’s because the beef was not what we were used to.”

“I had mine medium, Sue had hers well-done,” he explained before his wife continued: “I think it was just the fact that the beef was just very, very thin.

“And I can only describe it as being a bit like bacon.”

“It was awful,” Noel added, going on: “And what makes a Sunday dinner? The gravy.

“And it was… in fact, I didn’t put any on mine. I tasted it, I thought, ‘no, I’m, not putting that on.'”

As well as their own huge brood, Sue and Noel also have 10 grandchildren, the latest of which was born just last month.

Sharing a series of snaps in October, the first one of their daughter Katie, 21, holding her newborn son, the two captioned the Instagram post: “Welcome to the world Ronnie.

“He’s just so precious congratulations Katie and Connor he’s just amazing. very proud nana and grandpops.” (sic)
