ITV viewers looking for their next binge have a ‘must-watch’ show to enjoy on Friday night.
Bradley Walsh and son Barney are back on the road once more for series seven of Breaking Dad. In the new series, the Chase legend, 65, and son Barney, 28, head down under for an epic Australian adventure in the seventh series of their beloved ITV programme.
Across the new six-part series, the father and son duo will explore the sweeping wilderness and coastal thrills of Australia and, true to form, Bradley will be getting anything but the rest and relaxation he’s been dreaming of.
Barney has put together a jam-packed itinerary brimming with adrenaline-fuelled challenges, all carefully crafted to push his dad to his limits across the Australian outback and beyond.
In an early preview clip, the iconic duo are spotted at Manly Beach, a hugely popular surfing spot on Sydney’s northern beaches, famed for its stunning golden sands. However, Barney soon uses the moment to hilariously wind his dad up.

Meanwhile, episode one will see the duo in the iconic city of Sydney, where they take in the sights of the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House with a terrifying aerobatic flight that takes its toll on Brad.
However, the day ends on a nicer note as Bradley arranges an exclusive and unique dinner.
Later in the episode, the duo leave the city for the beautiful Blue Mountains, famed for its spectacular scenery, but once again, Brad’s fear of heights is put to the test when they take a ride on what turns out to be an extreme cable car.
Breaking Dad first made its debut in 2019 and the series has received rave reviews. One fan wrote: “Absolutely love this show.
