Mark reveals how a tattoo in a very intimate location was briefly mistaken for something incredibly offensive, while Denis completely loses it when Mark admits the one name he’d most like to call out passionately in the middle of the night.

They also chat about:

The World Cup

Board games

Cleaning out wardrobes

Forgotten conversations

Tattoo misunderstandings

Social media bans

Names that should never be shouted at 3am
