In 2011, I went to Bournemouth to study English, but I overstayed for almost 4 months after my visa expired. It has been 5 years since I left the UK.

Now, I would like to apply for a visa, to visit a friend, but I'm afraid to risk a refusal. Will my overstay affect an application for a tourist visa?

Yes, it will be considered as a factor in your tourist visa. Usually the application will ask you if you have ever violated the terms of a previous visa and give you a box for details. Depending on your situation, they might or might not give you the visa.
