Britain's biggest family has 22nd baby on the way

The parents of Britain's biggest family are expecting baby number 22.

Sue Radford, 44, and her 48-year-old husband Noel announced the news on YouTube , saying they "cannot wait" for the child to be born.

Last year The Radfords, from Morecambe, Lancashire, shocked television viewers when Sue revealed how old she was when she fell pregnant with her first child.

She gave birth to Chris, now 30, when she was 14 and Noel was 18.

And having been adopted herself, Sue was determined to keep the baby.

The Youtube video starts with Sue and her husband as they head to hospital accompanied by some of their young kids, reports the Mirror.

Sue says: "Hopefully we'll get to see him kicking around. We're both very excited".

The footage was filmed on September 29th as they went for a three month scan.
