Scots tattoo artist turned comedian talks performing in prisons

Former amateur mixed martial arts fighter, tattoo artist, and now comedian David McKinlay really has done it all. The Glasgow comic, 45, is a member of Wholesome Prison Blues - a team of six who take their gigs to prisons around the country. McKinlay, known as Tattoo Dave, is currently looking forward to his appearance at this year's Glasgow Comedy Festival.
