Judge Bex

Judge Bex is halfway through watching Coco with the telly on very loud, Connor has some worrying questions about turnips, and there are two brand new cases for the court.
Zosha is nearly eight, and she feels so strongly about her case that she’s calling in from her holiday in Turkey. She’s taking Uncle Ben to court because he keeps calling her “Babies”. Uncle Ben says it’s a term of endearment, that she’ll always be a baby to him even when she’s a hundred, and that Zosha is very happy to hand out nicknames when it suits her. Zosha’s answer? She just ignores him. Can Judge Bex find a nickname everyone can live with?
Then 13-year-old Nyla takes her sister Leah to court over the comfiest seat in the house: the corner of the sofa with the recliner. Nyla has a swollen, painful foot and needs to put it up. Leah is studying for exams and says she deserves somewhere comfy to relax. Nyla says Leah has been using exams as an excuse for about four years…
Lauren says first come, first served. Connor says just buy more comfy chairs. So is it the foot or the exams? Whose side will Judge Bex take?

Judge Bex has paint in her wig, Connor has a Harry Potter quiz question nobody can answer, and there are two brand new cases for the court.
Ruby takes Mum to court over Harry Potter. Mum’s rule is that each book gets read before its film gets watched. They read the first three together, but now it’s time for book four, all Ruby’s friends have already seen the fourth film, and she’d much rather be reading A Series of Unfortunate Events and Narnia along with her class. Mum went to the midnight book launches as a kid and says the books are packed with Easter eggs you only spot if you read them. Can anyone find a way to keep them both happy?
Then Faye takes Mum to court for putting her clothes in the wrong drawers. Pyjama tops end up with her everyday clothes, and one pair of pyjamas went missing for three whole weeks. Mum works full time, has two children to ferry about, a dog to walk and all the ironing to do, and her answer is simple: if Faye doesn’t like the way it’s done, she can do it herself. Connor is Team Faye. Lauren is Team Mum. Whose side will Judge Bex take?

Albi takes his dad to court over screen time, and it turns out the defence has just bought a field.
Albi gets screens on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, plus holidays, and he’s asking for one more day. He isn’t after unlimited Minecraft, just one extra. Dad’s case is that they live in the beautiful Peak District, there are a thousand books in the house and there’s a brand new field to be getting on with. Then Albi points out that Dad is on his phone every single morning reading the news, and Dad admits he’s right…
Then Sean from Fun Kids takes Robot to court for losing the Fun Kids Top 100 Disney Songs list. Robot’s brain was hacked, which he insists wasn’t his fault. Sean says it was entirely his fault, because Robot’s password was Robo101. Sean wants five years in prison. Robot says he’d take the prison over losing cheeseburgers for a week…

Gwen and April take their dad Paul to court over phones at the dinner table. The girls aren’t allowed their tablets while they eat, but Paul sits down with his personal phone and his work phone and swipes shapes all the way through the meal. He’s on level 7,500. His defence is that he can multitask, though he does admit he can’t quite manage the chatting-to-his-family part. Then Mum is called in as a witness and suddenly it’s three against one…
Then Mia takes big sister Beth to court over the last two gingerbread men. Mia says it was her turn to pick and Beth grabbed the biggest one. Beth says that cookie was reserved, hers, and always had been. So how did it end up on the shared plate? Judge Bex thinks she knows exactly who moved it, and it leads to the first ruling of its kind in her courtroom…

Court reporters Lauren and Connor are outside the courtroom and have decided the Judge Bex podcast is now officially the biggest in the whole entire world. Bold claim. Two cases to back it up...
First, Evie is off to Italy and wants her own wheelie suitcase, with a lock. Dad Matt says no, and he’s nervous about what she’d actually pack: fake nails, a pile of cuddly toys and one lonely puzzle book. But then Evie reveals why the lock matters so much. Dad has been opening her bag, taking her things out and stuffing his own things in, and his bag, she says, is massive…
Then Tiffany accuses her little brother Thomas of ruining their weekend sleepovers. He wakes her at six in the morning, chats away to himself, brings LEGO into her room and leaves every single toy behind for her to tidy up. His defence? He just wants more time with his big sister. Even Lauren goes Team Thomas on that one.
Can Judge Bex get Evie her suitcase and Tiffany a lie-in?
