Of course there has to be a second series, there is no way that the talents of Louis, Dan, Phil and Nikole can go missed. The people of this world need to see our homegrown talent, and a series like this is the perfect place to showcase it.
Miami Ink has done well, so why not keep London Ink going? I say lets have another few series, not just another 1.

definatly...L ink has been a great series its just a shame that it doesnt concentrate on the tattoos as much as some deserved. i wished they could have come to a better conlusion at the end of the series though, was a little dissapointing....bring on the second !!

Come on you guys, we need another series. I myself have got three tattoos and would love another one created by the team from my design as a memerorial to my recently departed nan. I have never seen an artist that says "Leave it with me, I'll sketch it up". Or the two occasions I have i've come back to some **** scribble on a page.
COME ON GUYS... If Miami Ink can do it, London Ink can do it better
All good things come in small packages.... and so does poision

This show should be axed and please don't show it to the american's. It is an embarrasment. The UK's best tattoo artists are from canada, new zealand errrr that's not the UK if no one has noticed. The customers are happy and that's fine. The way louis treats his staff is awful and I admire the fact none of them have told him where to stick it before now. I know I would have. He is obnoxious, he lives off a tattoo that was on a famous body but wasn't a masterpiece. There are lots of much better tattoo artists that come from manchester and around the UK. It would have been much better if the channel had gone and found a group of good tattoo artist that are unknown like the guys from miami ink were. Not some pompous embarresment that thinks he's good. AXE THE SHOW BEFORE PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE UK SEE IT !!!!

To late Tattooed Lady, I'm sorry, some of us have seen it. I watch it on Youtube. I would agree that this is not one of the best shows of it's kind on TV. My biggest disappointment is the lack of focus on the work. Even when they are done, you only get a brief glimpse of the finished product. Louis needs to go. Dan needs to grow up. Nicole, well she did a really nice Japanese tat. The other guy, umm, he tattoos right? As far as comparing to the other shows, I like most of LA Ink with the exception of its "I lOVE ME" star Kat. Lose her, the show becomes better 10 fold. Miami Ink is pretty good, but they are starting to become less about the tats as there are about oogling women. Now the latest show I have seen, once again on Youtube, is Tattoo Wars. A kinda Biker Build-off theme that culminates with a contest between 2 interpretations of one tattoo design. Good stuff with plenty off other tattooing prior to the spectator vote.
I just think there are to many attempts being made to bank off of one concept. Copycats are really never as good as the original.

In response, maybe its all the BS that seems to be coming a big part of all these shows. I do not like the drama and all the other nonsense. If the show is about tattooing then get about, tell Louis to shut up and lets see the work. Save the partying and hangovers and bickering for off-screen. Thats goes for all the shows not just London Ink. If I want "reality" I'll watch FOX. If I want to watch real TV then I should be able to see it on Discovery/TLC.

i love the show, and of course would love to see series 2, 3, 4... etc I do agree a little with freefaller, in id like to see more focus on the tattoos, and the technical aspect of tattooing. However i think London in is the most raw of the 3 'ink' shows i have seen. As far as where the artists are from, who gives a ****? I dont watch the show to see londons best tattoist, i watch the show to see tattoing, because thats what i love. It's what i want to see on tv, thats jut my opinion.
I do think though we dont need constant reminder that loui is the 'creator of the worlds most famous tattoo' at the end of the day, its just another client right?

I understand what you are saying (it does get a bit tiresome listening to the customers getting teary-eyed over some goldfish that has died) but the fact is that drama gets the show noticed. Without seeing parts of the tattooers lives the audience wouldn't get as involved with the show (just check out the Miami ink forum... people are obsessed!). It is a formula that works and has been working for a very very long time.
