Tattoos To ink or not to ink? Tattoos were once considered taboo – mainly flaunted by footy stars, bogans and bikies. Now tatts are cool, and while parents may loathe them, many teenage kids count down the days until they can have one. Australian model and DJ Ruby Rose considers her naked skin a canvas for tattoo art. For her, they symbolise freedom and beauty. Join Sunday Night as we visit the very cheeky Rose at the tattoo parlour for yet another inking – she already has 30. But what happens when the ink begins to fade, replaced only by regret? Hollywood superstar Mark Wahlberg tells reporter Alex Cullen why he’s jumped the fence in the tattoo debate, and why he’s now undergoing hours of painful laser surgery to remove his ink. But before you make up your mind on this issue, meet the former white supremacist who is now on the straight and narrow -although his face still tells another story. His painful transformation is frightening. Homeland Terrorism The terrifying true story behind Australia’s unsolved terrorist attack. A police hero murdered, leaving a widow and two young sons behind. The 12th floor bombing at the National Crime Authority in Adelaide in 1994 also left another man clinging to life. The man named as the bomb maker, still walks free today. In this major investigation, Sunday Night’s Ross Coulthart reveals for the first time the extraordinary decision that allowed the killer to evade prosecution for 18 years. With a $1 million reward on offer, what Ross discovers could blow the case wide open. Old Pot Heads The biggest group taking up weed are the over 50’s – nowadays more and more grandparents are on the ganja. All across America, and here in Australia, baby boomers are fighting for their right to get high. Sunday Night guest reporter Mike Amor is taken into the secret vault, a hidden marijuana crop in a retirement village. The gardener is a grey-haired grandmother who gives advice on growing pot. We also meet Margo Bowler, a 76 year old pot smoking retired nurse, who says a joint eases the pain of her incurable illness.

American Pickers

This isn't your grandmother's antiquing. The American Pickers are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner's land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person's trash into another's treasure. The show follows the team as they scour the country for hidden gems in junkyards, basements, garages and barns, meeting quirky characters and hearing their amazing stories. If you think the antique business is all about upscale boutiques and buttoned-up dealers, this show may change your mind – and teach you a thing or two about American history along the way.

McDonald & Dodds is set in Bath and follows the wildly ambitious DCI McDonald, who is partnered with the shy, modest DS Dodds. While McDonald has transferred from the mean streets of South London to leap up the career ladder, Dodds has happily languished on the shelf for most of his working life.

McDonald is a tough, driven, battering ram of a cop who cracks cases through sheer force of will; Dodds – the tortoise to her hare – is quiet, unassuming and enigmatic. But thrust back into frontline action for the first time in a decade, he discovers a hidden talent for deciphering puzzles. Two contemporary Britons, seemingly with nothing in common, thrown together, boss McDonald and loyal sidekick Dodds forge a rumbustious, entertaining and ultimately – give or take a few setbacks – effective partnership.
