Solo TV time and the gumball machine that got away

From the podcast Judge Bex

·24:27

Judge Bex gets caught listening to a rival science podcast, Connor claims to make up 75% of the Dream Team, and there are two brand new cases for the court.

Nine-year-old Henry takes his mum to court because he isn’t allowed to watch TV on his own. If a parent leaves the sofa, even to go to the loo, the programme gets paused until they’re back. Henry thinks that’s unfair, and he’s even offering a compromise: TV on his own at weekends, and with someone else on weekdays. But Mum says Henry has left out some vital evidence. While she and Dad were having a weekend lie-in, he was caught watching Border Force… And Henry has a complaint of his own: Mum sings along to films far too much. Can Henry win back his solo telly time, or is it the pause button forever?

Then Samuel takes his mum to court over a gumball machine. He spotted one in a shop after seeing one on Ryan’s World, and he’s brought his own colourful drawing of it as evidence. Mum said no. When he went back months later with his grandma and grandpa, somebody else had bought it, and now the shop has closed down too. But Mum has some evidence of her own. That same day Samuel had already been to see Horrible Histories, picked out some fun bath treats including a Minecraft TNT one, and gone out for sushi… More than a year later, does Samuel deserve his dream gumball machine?
