Taking to Instagram and Facebook, the parents of Britain's largest family posted: "**EXCITING NEWS ** We are back for a new series of 22 kids and counting. 20th July 8pm ch5 we cannot wait to share what we've been up to."

The upcoming series promises to deliver more insights into the bustling life of the Radfords, who hail from Lancashire, showcasing their extensive brood and grandchildren.

Since their television debut in 2012, the Radfords have captured the hearts of viewers nationwide and have consistently kept their fans in the loop about their growing family via social media, reports Lancs Live.

Eager fans didn't hesitate to express their excitement in the comments section.

One person commented: "Yay! It seems like forever since the last one. I'm so looking forward to this."

Someone else shared: "That is fantastic news. I can't wait to watch. You are an amazing family. And I have watched you all from the start."

"Great can't wait. I love your family and it was very moving watching noel tracing his birth mother. Me and my twin brother was adopted and I can understanding how he feels wanting to know," shared another.

However, one fan was quick to question why the new series is titled 'Finding Mum: 50 Years Apart'.

It looks as though the upcoming episodes will have a strong focus on Noel and the search for his birth mother. The Channel 5 star has been open about being adopted when he was just 10 days old in 1971.

Although Sue is also adopted, she has shown no interest in finding her birth parents. She once commented: "It’s hard watching Noel get upset about it all, but it’s a personal choice.

"Some people are desperate to know where they came from and why they were put up for adoption. Noel is very much like that. I am not really interested.”

22 Kids and Counting Finding Mum: 50 Years Apart is available to watch on Channel 5 from July 20th at 8pm.
