It’s the first episode of 2026 and the gang ease into the New Year in true Confession Box style — by immediately arguing about dates, shopping, and who actually paid for Christmas.

Julie reveals how a year of obsessive bottle collecting turned into nearly €300 in vouchers, which somehow funded two full Christmas dinners… but still left everyone wondering where all the food went. That spirals into post-Christmas shopping chaos, Nana P navigating Dunnes on a broken leg, and Sean sending a “simple” shopping list that nearly causes a full aisle meltdown (granola, yoghurt and rice are all up for debate).

As the chat drifts between icy roads, cancelled school buses, hospital scans, and Christmas nights out, Sean takes a sharp turn into philosophy — introducing the trolley problem, the butterfly effect, and whether everything really does happen for a reason. Julie and Nana P are… not fully on board.

It’s full Christmas chaos in The Confession Box as Julie, Sean and Nana P squeeze back onto the couch and immediately start roasting each other. From broccoli jumpers and pronunciation wars to re-gifting scandals, emails-as-presents and “hashtag gifted” drama, nothing is safe.

Things escalate quickly with Christmas Eve Mass, pub traditions, drunk Santa memories and a St Stephen’s Day that ends with Nana P going missing under a blanket — only to wake up and be served black bean Chinese “for breakfast”. Add in lost chargers, childhood trauma accusations, food comas and a little house talk, and you’ve got peak Confession Box energy.

Chaos, comfort and plenty of laughs — just how we like it.

It’s Christmas week, and the gang are in full festive meltdown mode. Julie, Nana P and Sean kick off with pure slagging (Sean’s outfit gets absolutely dragged), before the chat turns into a Cork city struggle: disastrous parking, a wall bump, a wing mirror hanging off, and Sean walking straight into a pole… while recording.

There’s ice skating at Marina Market, Christmas present negotiations, family throwbacks (Dettol baths, saxo salt, and ringing your mam in work), and then Julie drops a proper update — they spotted the “sale agreed” sign on the house and she’s flying through the legal side with a specialist property solicitor.

A festive catch-up packed with chaos, nostalgia, and a little property progress — Happy Christmas, and be careful out there. 🎄

Welcome back to The Confession Box, and sorry again for last week’s missing episode… Julie makes up for it with plenty of chaos this time 🙃

She kicks things off having a full meltdown over recording an ad, spending nearly an hour trying to pronounce fancy wine names (Château what now?) and turning one poor bottle into champagne, red wine and everything in between. That spirals into a chat about zero-zero pints, whether you’d still be done for drink-driving if the barman gave you the wrong thing, and an experiment that proves mind-over-matter might actually be a bit too real.

Then Julie drops the bombshell: she hasn’t just viewed a house… she’s put an offer on two of them. She’s in a bidding war, she’s 100k short on paper. Come find out how she plans to make this one work.

It’s another wild catch-up in The Confession Box, and the trio waste zero time diving straight into the chaos. Julie’s raging over Sean’s “no common sense” parking stunt, Nana P is half-hearing everything and creating a whole new set of problems, and somehow they end up swapping stories about doctors, baby scans, pigeons, and men being absolutely useless in labour rooms.

The big moment comes when she finally reveals her latest news: after a rollercoaster pregancy update, she's officially gone to view her first ever house. Cue the panic, excitement, budgeting meltdowns, and Sean zoning out mid-sentence.

There’s another big announcement this week… but Julie’s keeping everyone guessing right to the end 👀 After last week’s pregnancy news, what could it possibly be this time?

Meanwhile, Nana P only just about made it back from the UK after injuring her leg, and Sean somehow ended up responsible for getting her home in one piece. Between the mystery, the madness, and the usual Confession Box chaos, it’s one of those episodes you won’t want to miss.
