Kieran and Liam haul their little brother Kumi into court over his obsession with Kid Time Storytime, a puppet show he begs for morning, noon and night. Kieran has even drawn up a roster so everyone gets a fair turn to pick, but Kumi picks his show every single time, and when he doesn’t get his way, out come the very long, very loud tantrums...
Can the brothers win back a share of the listening? And wait until you hear Kumi’s own story about a witch, a pterodactyl and a stolen pair of pants!
Then nine-year-old Darcy takes her mum to court over bedtime. Darcy is sent up at half past six, the same time as her two-year-old cousin AJ, and doesn’t wake up until seven the next morning. Mum reckons she’d send her up even earlier, and starts talking rather fondly about Victorian children being seen and not heard...
Judge Bex has done her research on how much sleep a nine-year-old actually needs. Is Mum about to lose this one?

Court is in session and Judge Bex is up against her toughest opponent yet: a real-life barrister!
Bonnie takes her dad to court over a serious double standard. He tells her to keep her room tidy while his own room is a dumping ground and he’s always on his bowling game, even though Bonnie isn’t allowed any mobile devices at all.
Dad’s defence falls apart the moment he starts listing his clutter, because half of it turns out to be presents Bonnie gave him...
Then Nathaniel accuses his dad of using chocolate as leverage. Ten minutes of violin practice earns a point, points earn chocolate, but he only gets to eat it once a week!
Meanwhile Dad is on the sofa eating chocolate right in front of him and raiding the cooking chocolate too. His excuse? He’s protecting Nathaniel’s young teeth. Judge Bex is not convinced.

Matty might just be the busiest kid in the country: French horn lessons, wind band, Brownies where she's a Kelpie and a sixer, sewing club, chess, dance, LEGO club, Eco Council... the list goes on and on.
The problem? Mum will only let her press play on Judge Bex the day before the next episode drops, because the new episodes are far too exciting for bedtime and keep Matty wide awake! With five episodes now stacking up unlistened, can Judge Bex find a fair verdict, especially once Matty's brother Ollie boldly claims he HATES the show?
Then, Poppy vs Mum, where the charge is mortifying "mum dancing" every single time Fun Kids comes on, particularly in front of Poppy's friends out in the garden.
Mum pleads guilty to embarrassing her daughter on purpose because the reaction is just too good... but is a good old kitchen disco really a crime?

Sisters Tamara and Lolly share a bedroom but can't agree on the lights. Tamara needs total darkness to fall asleep; Lolly loves the warm glow of a Himalayan salt lamp — which, in a shock twist, actually belongs to their brother Zach, who bought it for his asthma years ago.
With Mum called as a witness, can Judge Bex find a ruling that keeps everyone happy?
Meanwhile, there's a dog in the dock! Sari puts the family dog Nala — a nine-month-old black labradoodle with very sharp teeth — on trial for chewing up Mum's beloved cashmere chair.
But with Dad the only one home when the crime took place, the finger of blame starts swinging his way... Will Nala walk free? Connor has one rule: never, ever blame the dog.

Maya's fed up. Every time she's told to put her screen down and go read or draw, her dad's sitting right beside her... scrolling through Instagram! Is that fair? It's a classic case of "do as I say, not as I do" and Judge Bex is not impressed.
Then it's Thomas versus Mum. Thomas has saved up his own money and he's desperate to buy an XBOX but Mum reckons it's the first step to becoming a "tech monster," and worries the console is just the start of a very long (and very expensive) list. Can Thomas prove he can be trusted, or will Mum win the day?

Josie and Margot take their dad to court over his controversial rule: anyone out of bed before 7am on weekends owes him £1. The girls say the “parenting policy” is deeply unfair (and possibly a scam, since their pocket money source has dried up!). Dad claims it’s all about sleep, health, and keeping the morning farts contained to individual beds!
Judge Bex investigates inconsistencies in the payout structure, demands a proper ledger for fairness, and rules on a new wake-up time.
Meanwhile, Mackenzie accuses her brother Callum of using a spy pen to write "banana" on his own ceiling – then blaming her. Callum insists Mackenzie’s handwriting is all over this fruity crime and provides a detailed forensics account of bunk beds and spy pens. With both presenting evidence (and some top-notch sibling rivalry), Judge Bex sifts through the stories and the handwriting samples to find the truth.

Meanwhile, siblings Niamh and Ria are at odds over who gets to play their Nintendo Switch. Was it a solo gift or meant to be shared? The twist: Santa’s written instructions and some sneaky switch sessions. Judge Bex has the final word!

Young Emma brings her dad to justice for consistently blaming his very suspiciously large farts on her and her little sister. With the whole family as witnesses and plenty of "overwhelming evidence," can Dad wriggle out of trouble, or will Judge Bex finally bring order (and maybe some fresh air) to the home?
Meanwhile, Charlie wants a pet lizard and claims it'll help with an ongoing fly problem (especially during jam on toast time). His secret weapon? Super-cool Nana, who’s all in for team lizard, even if she won’t be the one cleaning the cage. But with mum and dad saying a firm "no" to all pets, can Judge Bex find a compromise?

Meanwhile, Olivia has mastered the pool, loves diving, and just wants to be done with the lessons!
But Mum says swimming is an essential life skill and wants Olivia to keep swimming for another year.

With shocking new evidence (Mum’s midnight Nutella confession!) and a passionate plea for more sweet treats, Judge Bex must decide: Is Mum being fair, or does Jasmine deserve dessert justice?
Meanwhile, Thomas loves his long hair and sometimes rocks a front ponytail to keep it out of his eyes but his sister Holly and even Mum and Dad think it looks silly.
Is it fair for Thomas to be called out for his "silly" style, or should everyone do their own hair, their own way?

Dad is feeling phone fatigue as his creative and ambitious daughter Ivy (who already has 2,000+ YouTube subscribers!) constantly commandeers his phone to record her next viral hit...
Can Dad get a break, or should he just accept his new role as Ivy’s manager?
Judge Bex mediates the madness, issues some firm (but fair!) phone-sharing rules, and ponders the case of the 450 parrot-dance videos clogging Dad's camera roll...
Then, it’s LEGO drama as Oliver accuses his dad of 'stealing' his prized Lego sets, hiding them on high shelves, and even playing with them at night!
Dad claims he’s rescuing neglected bricks and should be hailed as 'Sir LEGO' but Oliver isn’t having it. Will Judge Bex order the LEGO to be returned? Can father and son find a truce (and perhaps a secret LEGO Narnia together)?

This week in Judge Bex's courtroom, two families face off over too much of a good thing!
First up, Orla and Otty have had enough of their dad’s non-stop hiking sprees, especially when all they wanted for their Canadian birthday trip was swimming and sweets. Is dad working the family too hard, or is there room for compromise (and chocolate)?
Then: Elena brings her dad before the court for breaking the promise of "just one second" whenever she wants to bake – only for dad to get lost in his laptop.
Can Judge Bex balance the scales of family time, outdoor adventure, and home-baked cookies?

Should a string of perfect spelling tests earn you the right to choose movie night? Alma thinks so but Mum has other plans, usually involving detective films and a dose of Jessica Fletcher...
When your Friday night hangs in the balance, is “We Can Be Heroes” too much to ask? Judge Bex weighs spelling triumph against cinematic tradition and hands down a verdict.
Meanwhile, the court faces the siblings' classic: Ria vs. Mum (and her brother!). Ria is tired of always catching the blame for spills and snack wrappers left behind.
Is she being unfairly singled out, or are memories of past misdemeanors clouding Mum’s judgement? Maybe it’s time for a detective in this house too!
Judge Bex unpacks the evidence, interviews both sides, and rules on who truly deserves the blame and who needs to tidy up their act.

Is "practicing to be a great golf buddy" a good enough excuse? Will football reclaim its rightful Saturday slot – or is it game over for Dad's Saturday swings?
Meanwhile, Dolly loves reading... but only when it's a book she picks! Every night, Dad makes her read a school book he won't even listen to, preferring to scroll on his phone.
Is this justice, or just lazy parenting? Can the court come up with a solution that makes reading time more fun (and less phoney) for everyone?

Clara brings her mum to Judge Bex’s court, desperate to stop the barrage of embarrassing pet names like Sausage, especially at the school gates where everyone can hear. Mum argues pet names are a sign of love, but Clara wants simply to be called Clara!
Judge Bex listens carefully, considers the evidence (including a very telling birthday card!), and makes a ruling that will change how this family feels about nicknames forever.
Plus: Should Clara get to invent a nickname for Mum in return?
Meanwhile, nine-year-old Zachary is in court after being banned from his two favourite TV shows, SpongeBob SquarePants and Horrid Henry. According to Mum and Dad, too much screen time is making him "cheeky" and he’s copying the characters a little too closely!
Zachary pleads his case, while Mum and Dad insist they're only trying to set boundaries. Judge Bex weighs in on screen time limits and serves up a surprising solution that just might get Mum and Dad singing the SpongeBob theme tune themselves!

Meanwhile, sibling roommates Emily and William are at war over early mornings. Emily’s beauty sleep is regularly shattered by William, who’s wide awake after a doggy face-lick alarm clock.

Charlotte says Dad's 6:20am wake-up calls are an offence against sleep – and that string of defeated alarm clocks can testify! Dad insists it’s the only way Charlotte will get up (eventually) and they need to get to school early since both parents are teachers there...
Can a compromise be found or is Charlotte doomed to be the first one through the school gates forever?
Meanwhile, Elsa argues £1 a week just doesn’t stretch far enough. Especially when her parents "forget" to pay up! With secondary school around the corner, she wants more money and more control... Mum claims Elsa already gets plenty of extras and that if she wants more cash, she’ll have to step up her chores.
Will Elsa negotiate a pay rise from the Bank of Mum?

Today in the courtroom of Judge Bex, two tasty cases stand trial.
First, Arabella takes her dad to court, accusing him of smuggling – and eating –her precious American snacks. Can Dad Chris wiggle out of the charge or will Judge Bex tax him harder than 1773?
Then, it’s a battle of the sauces as Alistair’s love for ketchup frustrates his mum, who’s desperate to serve up healthy meals not drowned in red stuff. Is there a way for everyone to keep their cool – or at least their condiments?
Plus: Connor and Lauren do their best to unpick Judge Bex’s meaty sentences and try to keep up with ketchup chaos.

Meanwhile, it's dinner time and Isla's house is far from peaceful. Isla claims she gets scolded daily for "chomping" her food but points the finger right back at Dad for even louder eating!

Do Ethan and Marcus do too much around the house while mum and dad relax – or is there more to the story? From filling water bottles and feeding the cat, to tackling the most boring task of all (the dishwasher), the boys say the list never ends! Mum Claire and Dad Alex argue back, but Judge Bex has a twist in store: a star chart for the parents, proof of chores, and extra screen time for completed tasks.
Meanwhile, Mummy's snoring is so powerful, Penny claims she can't sleep! After an award-worthy snoring impression, all eyes turn to mum, who admits the issue – sometimes even waking herself up!
Penny wants earplugs, mum gets stitched up with a case out of left field, and Judge Bex lays down a surprising and sweet judgment.

Sean has had enough! Every time he wins, receives, or buys treats like marshmallows and Toblerone, Dad just can’t resist. Is it a harmless household sharing culture, or a serious case of snack theft? Dad Adrian says he just couldn’t help it but Sean wants justice… and his chocolate back.
Meanwhile, Billy just wants to hang out and play Pokémon with his big brother Alexander – but Alexander would rather read or play chess than another round of battles. Is it fair for Billy to keep asking? Should Alexander be forced to play Pokémon if he’s not feeling it?
Lauren and Connor reflect on the cases. Should treats always be shared? Is Judge Bex's suggestion of a "supermarket sweep" a fair price for snack theft? Is it a big sibling’s duty to entertain a younger one?

Baird is frustrated – his parents have been to lots of places, but he’s only ever been to London. Dad says many trips were before Baird was born. What can be done? Turns out, even a Holiday Inn sounds fun!
Meanwhile, Sisters Elsie and Isabel are at odds. Elsie is a prolific letter-writer, sliding up to 100 notes under Isabel’s door, despite their rooms being three meters apart! Isabel’s complaint: It’s repetitive, distracting, and sometimes she just bins the notes. But maybe letter writing is also a handwriting helper?

Stefano doesn’t appreciate his mum Francesca’s jokes and wants them to stop. Francesca claims her humour is genetic and can’t help making cracks about lamb at Easter... Judge Bex prescribes a household stand-up comedy competition with the fate of joke-telling hanging in the balance.
Meanwhile. Tess’s desk is an alleged disaster zone, but she claims it’s organised chaos. Mum insists on tidiness, but is her own “bench of clothes” setting the best example – if she’s expected to tidy, mum should practice what she preaches!
Is it ever okay for parents to make cringe jokes? Should 'messy desk, creative mind' override 'tidy house, tidy mind'?

Hurray, Cookie’s Nani is coming to stay from Bangladesh!
But she doesn’t speak English and Cookie is the only one in the family who doesn’t speak Bengali.
Luckily, science-mad Cookie realises that her coding lessons at school might help her crack the language code and help her bond with Nani.
Other mysteries are harder to solve, though – like, why is Jake’s mum acting so weird?
Who is the mystery gamer who keeps levelling-up in Cookie’s computer game?
And who is the Woodburn Hacker, who keeps posting teachers’ secrets on the school website?
Why does it look like it might be Cookie herself?
Can Cookie solve these mysteries, clear her name and save the science show?

Now they just need to hide him in the shed without Rose’s mum noticing, track down Merdyn’s magic staff and find a way to send Merdyn back through time to the Dark Ages. What could possibly go wrong…?

Comedian Dom Joly and CEO of the Trussell Trust Emma Revie join Bex.
They’re chat about a new school poetry campaign by the Trussell Trust, with the topic of a Hunger-Free Future in the UK.
In November 2020, we launched an ambitious campaign to create change – to build a movement of people who will work alongside the Trussell Trust to create a hunger free future.
From March to August 2020, food banks in the Trussell Trust network gave out 1.2 million emergency food parcels. That’s one food parcel every 13 seconds and 2,600 of these went to children every day on average.
This kind of help shouldn’t be needed. That’s why the Trussell Trust are calling for a hunger free future, and asking people just like you to stand with them and create a different future…
