How many tattoos are too many? Will they still look good when you're 78? Is tattooing someone at a drunken dinner party a good idea?

Join Mae, Bisha, Ned and Steve to untangle these highly complex problems. This week, Mae confesses her biggest tattoo regrets, Bisha's been digging up a 500 year old mummy called Otzi and Ned gets a piercing - and it really suits him. Rapper and poet Roxanne joins the gang to help unpick your dilemmas and Steve Ali will be here to put everything into perspective.

Co-created by Deborah Frances-White for The Spontaneity Shop and BBC Radio 4.

Producer: Al Riddell

Music by Mark Hodge and Omahrose, produced by Nick Sheldon.
