Judge Bex

Bottom burps and cleaning chaos

Aoife is at her wit’s end. Not only is she forced to tidy up after her one-year-old brother Lockie, but she’s also on pants and socks patrol for her messy Dad, Ben. Dad claims to be tidy but brother Baird drops some bombshell confessions. Meanwhile, Hazel brings Mum Caitlin to the court for a truly gas-tly offence: non-stop farting at the table, even on Christmas! Caitlin claims it’s natural as Judge Bex dives into the delicate etiquette of when and where to let it rip. Who will win: dinner manners or digestive freedom?

Screen time at the table and showtime all-the-time

Who controls screen time at dinner time? Brothers Teddy and Percy are fed up: all they want is to watch The Simpsons with their spaghetti, but their parents say iPads are off the table! But is it fair when Mum and Dad are glued to their own phones, scrolling away? Even Grandma Sheila is called to the stand... Plus, when does a joke stop being funny? Mia is desperate for a straight answer to “What time is it?” But Mum Lisa can only reply with a Hamilton-inspired “It’s showtime!” With Dad now in on the act and the ‘funny’ reply spreading through the house, Mia’s had enough. Is Mum’s joy worth Mia’s frustration – or will Judge Bex mandate a full musical performance for every joke crack? Whose side are YOU on? Should parents have to follow the same rules as kids when it comes to screens at dinner? And when do family jokes finally wear out their welcome? Connor and Lauren join Judge Bex in chambers to weigh up phone etiquette, tricksy grown-ups, surprise relatives, and households where every minute really could be showtime.

Vanishing ice cream and packing panic

Daya keeps finding empty ice cream tubs every morning before school. She and her siblings swear it isn’t them and health-kick Mum’s ruled out as the culprit. All signs point to Dad but when confronted he blames the so-called "ice cream monster"... Meanwhile, Sophia’s family is moving house and she wants to pack her own things. Mum Lisa thinks she's got a few too many bits-and-bobs and admits she might "accidentally" leave a few behind... including some precious teddies! Judge Bex listens to both cases to decide who gets packing. Got a family disagreement of your own?
