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.

ASTRONAUT TIM PEAKE: Life On The International Space Station 🚀 🌌

Get ready for another BIG and BRILLIANT journey into the world of science on this week’s Science Weekly! We’re asking a huge question… we talk about science every week, but what actually is it? In Science in the News, researchers reveal that cats were domesticated much earlier than anyone thought, lightning has been spotted on Mars for the very first time, and Allowen Evin joins Dan to dig up a MASSIVE discovery about how dogs first transformed from wolves into the pets we know today! Then it’s time for your questions! William wants to know the difference between the flu and the common cold, and Dr Sarah Casewell breaks down what science really is. Dangerous Dan is back with one of the fiercest ancient predators ever — the smilodon, the gigantic sabre-toothed cat with jaws you definitely wouldn’t want to meet. And in Battle of the Sciences, we’re joined by science royalty… astronaut Tim Peake! He reveals what life is really like when you’re floating hundreds of kilometres above Earth. Plus, in Marvellous Missions, we blast off through a wormhole to Deep Space High as Principal Pulsar and the class head to the International Space Station for an out-of-this-world lesson. This week, we learn about: – How and when cats were first domesticated – The first lightning ever seen on Mars – How ancient wolves became modern dogs – What separates the flu from a common cold – What it’s really like to live in space with Tim Peake All that and more on this week’s Science Weekly!
