Are they setting a bad example for us all or do we need to take responsibility for our own choices and decisions? Journalists Andrea McVeigh and Niamh Horan discuss! And also on the programme 20 thousand people in Northern Ireland suffer from Epilepsy... and as part of Epilepsy Awareness Week charities are trying to banish some of the myths surrounding the condition.
