Bradley Walsh is hilariously told ‘do you know what you’re doing’ by an ITV show guest this Friday.
Bradley, 65, and Barney, 28, are back on the road in their beloved series Breaking Dad as they jet off to Australia for a breathtaking adventure in the seventh season of their hugely popular ITV show.
In this week’s episode, the duo’s Australian escapade rolls on as they find themselves in the outback, where they encounter a group of local farmers and lend a hand mustering cattle.
The pair then pull up at a local bar, where they find themselves drawn into a pub quiz. The following day, competitive spirits take over as father and son go head to head in a lawnmower race.
Bradley and Barney’s journey then winds back towards the coast and the stunning Whitsundays, where an adventure aboard a superyacht awaits. In true show fashion, however, the lads won’t be putting their feet up, as they’re expected to earn their keep on board, reports the Mirror.

In an exclusive preview clip from this Friday’s episode, the boys are thrown headfirst into a Below Deck-style cocktail-making challenge, tasked with whipping up drinks for the superyacht’s passengers.
Bradley is assigned a margarita while Barney is charged with crafting a piña colada. Things don’t go entirely to plan for Bradley, however, as he pours Cointreau straight into the glass rather than the cocktail shaker.
Spotting his mistake, he quips: “I should have done it in this but don’t worry!” However, the superyacht’s guests grow uneasy as one passenger cries out: “Does he know what he’s doing?” before another chips in with guidance, asking: “Do you need to put the Cointreau in there to shake it?”
To which Bradley insists: “I don’t really because it’s best if you have the Cointreau sitting at the bottom of the glass. That’s the way the pros do it!”

Having mixed his cocktail, Bradley samples his creation and exclaims: “Wow! I tell you what, you can run this boat on that!”
Meanwhile, Barney delivers the perfect piña colada, prompting a superyacht guest to gush: “Oh my goodness Barney, you are amazing!”
Keen for some feedback, Bradley enquires: “Out of ten, would you say the piña colada?” to which the guest declares: “I give it 12 out of 10!”
A crestfallen Bradley then asks: “And the margarita?” with the remaining passengers bluntly responding: “Three!” prompting Barney to quip: “Unlucky!”

Nevertheless, despite coming off worse in the cocktail-making contest, Bradley wastes no time grabbing a piña colada to sample for himself, raising a toast: “Cheers to you all!”
The passengers who had been handed the margaritas then set their glasses back down on the bar, with Barney joking: “Yeah, you best stay clear of that if I was you!”
Breaking Dad airs on Fridays at 7:30PM on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player
