Jayne with a Y has entered the chat… and Bernie came along for the ride.

This week, we’re joined by our best friend Jayne for her first episode of That’s a Bernie — and there was absolutely no chance this was going to be a quiet catch-up.

We go right back to where it all started: working together at the Manor, first impressions, clashes, questionable management techniques, workplace dramas, and the moments that somehow turned a group of colleagues into something much more like family.

There’s plenty of nostalgia as we remember the absolute chaos — and genuine magic — of the care home in its heyday, from donkeys and dementia care to the friendships that survived long after we all moved on.

We also discover why you should never spell Jayne without a Y, why TJ calling her “Archer” remains one of life’s simplest pleasures, and just how fiercely loyal she is when somebody she loves needs her.

Naturally, Bernie is there too, contributing exactly the level of Bernie-ness you’d expect.

It’s funny, nostalgic, occasionally emotional and very, very us.

Expect chaos. Accept Bernies. Love each other.

And remember: it’s Jayne. With a Y. Woe betide you if you forget. 😂

We all have habits.

Some are good. Some are annoying. And some should probably remain private for the rest of our lives.

Naturally, we're sharing all of them.

This week, we're exposing the good, the bad and the downright ugly habits we live with every day – from the little routines we're secretly proud of to the disgusting things we definitely only do when nobody's watching.

We're deciding which everyday habits are green flags, red flags or absolutely fucking feral, confessing the weird things we thought everybody did and discovering which irritating behaviours we've somehow inherited from our parents.

Then things get personal.

We're revealing the habits our partners can't stand, admitting what drives us mad about the people we live with and, because apparently family harmony means nothing to this podcast, calling out each other's most annoying habits too.

There's also Habit Court, where everyone gets the chance to defend one of their questionable behaviours while the rest of us decide whether it's perfectly normal, mildly irritating, a massive red flag or grounds for immediate removal from society.

Expect confessions, judgement, hypocrisy and at least one moment where somebody says:

“Hang on… you do WHAT?!”

Because everybody has bad habits.

The difference is, most people are sensible enough not to record theirs and put them on the internet.

Get your PE kit, find your homework diary and prepare for a detention, because this week we're going back to SCHOOL.

We're revisiting the teachers we loved, the ones we absolutely couldn't stand and the ones who, looking back, probably shouldn't have been responsible for children in the first place.

There are school dinners to remember (and some we'd rather forget), playground politics, ridiculous rules, PE trauma, embarrassing moments, detentions, questionable punishments and the various things we definitely weren't supposed to be doing.

We also ask what we were actually like as pupils, whether our old school reports told the truth, what today's kids would make of the things that were completely normal when we were growing up – and whether any of us would survive a day back at school now.

And, because apparently enough time has passed to make honesty seem like a good idea, there may also be a few school confessions that our parents are hearing for the very first time.

So sharpen your pencil, cover your exercise book in leftover wallpaper and try to remember your PE kit.

Class is in session – although judging by our stories, it's genuinely remarkable any of us learned anything at all.
