About this episode
Clara and Zachary present their cases in Judge Bex's court regarding embarrassing pet names and screen time limits.
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!
