MORE than 50 excited children crammed into a community hall to help a set of quads celebrate their sixth birthday.

Simon, Adam, Jonpaul and Hannah Moss-Carbert were joined by family, friends and fellow Corporation Road Infants School pupils.

The quads' mother, Theresa Moss-Carbert, of Finchale Crescent, Darlington, organised the two-hour party which took place at Bowen Road hall on Sunday.

But the quads had to wait until Monday, their actual birthday, to open their presents from mum and dad.

Mrs Moss-Carbert said: "The children were really excited on Sunday and were really looking forward to the party. They had a great time."

The four children became television stars in June when they appeared in a programme, Amazing Babies.

On the programme Theresa and her husband, Paul, told how they had almost given up hope of having children after trying for 11 years.
