There's good news for fans of the beloved ITV show Breaking Dad as father-son duo Bradley and Barney Walsh are hitting the road once again.

This time, viewers will see the pair head to Australia for an epic adventure down under for its seventh series.

Across six episodes, people will witness the duo take in the vast wilderness and coastal thrills of the country. Although, as per usual, The Chase host won't be getting the ultimate relaxing getaway he's dreaming of.

Instead, son Barney, who's currently starring in medical drama Casualty, will have a full itinerary for them both, which will be full of adrenaline-rushing challenges.

Ahead of the new series, Bradley confessed that he's anxious to see what his son has in store for him this time.

He commented: "It's so good to be back on the road again with Barney. We really do have the best time, but I'm not quite sure what he has up his sleeve on this trip, which is slightly worrying.

"I was looking forward to a bit of sunshine and maybe a nice barbecue but knowing Barney, I'll be dodging great whites or jumping out of a plane before breakfast."

Meanwhile, son Barney told fans he can't wait to get stuck in with life down under, teasing what's to come.

He added: "I'm excited to embark on this new adventure with my dad and get him to experience the incredible culture, local activities and landscapes of Australia.

"It's going to be an exciting and adrenaline-fuelled road trip with lots of fun and laughter. Australia is such an iconic destination with so much to offer - I can't wait to see us both get stuck in Down Under!"

The programme first began back in 2019 as the pair embarked on their first journey on a road trip across the USA, starting in Los Angeles, California, and travelling to Arizona, Texas, and finishing in New Orleans.

It's been highly praised by fans over the years, with many finding it hilarious to watch their adventures unfold.

One person said: "Absolutely loved both series, they're just visiting places and doing stuff and being happy together. Add in the odd ukulele singalong, this is real feel-good stuff."

Another added: "Absolutely love this show. The father-son relationship is great. Bradley's sense of humour is fantastic and makes you laugh out loud. A must-watch, especially if you are a fan of Bradley Walsh."

Someone else wrote: "Great series, they have such a wonderful relationship. Bradley & Barney together are hilarious. I love it."

It's not yet known when the next series of Breaking Dad will air on ITV.
