Firstly - remove all the tiles and start from scratch.
Secondly - alllow for re- plastering or over boarding on walls. Possibly self levelling on floors. Hard to say unless I know what you are tiling onto.
NEVER tile on tile unless you really have to.

Agree with Leatherface..... you can never tell how well the tiles already there are stuck to the wall. You could try removing a few to see how well they are stuck on but even so you can't tell how the rest will be.

Maybe get away with it on the floor.......
