The dynamic duo of ITV star Bradley Walsh and his son Barney wrapped up the sixth series of ‘Breaking Dad’ on Tuesday (May 6) with an exhilarating finale in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
The father-son pair has been on an epic journey through Japan and Thailand, engaging in a variety of activities.
They have participated in sumo wrestling in Tokyo and bungee jumping in Gifu, gone go-karting in Osaka, and honed their Muay Thai skills in Bangkok.
In the final episode, Barney upped the ante with a heart-stopping jungle roller coaster ride through Chiang Mai’s green landscape. They also braved the world’s stinkiest fruit, with Bradley more taken aback by its hefty £36 price tag than its notorious odour and flavour.
The duo competed in a wooden go-kart race that seemed like a surefire way to void any travel insurance policy.
Reflecting on the show’s six-season run, Bradley and Barney shared cherished memories from their adventures, stirring nostalgia among fans.
However, the trip down memory lane sparked concern among viewers about the show’s future. Fans took to social media to express their hopes and fears.
One viewer posted: “Really hope this wasn’t the last series! I really enjoy watch Bradley and Barney’s adventures!! #breakingdad” Another shared their apprehension: “Genuinely hope this isn’t the final episode of #BreakingDad that I’ve watched tonight, this father and son are great to watch together!”
Another chimed in, “Awww, I hope that isn’t the last series. Such an entertaining show.” There’s buzz around whether Bradley Walsh and his son Barney will be back for another run, as ITV has yet to confirm a seventh series, reports the Express.
A well-recognised face since the late 1980s, Bradley first graced our screens with the show ‘You Must Be Joking’, before going on to star in ‘Coronation Street’, ‘The Larkins’, and ‘Doctor Who’. But it’s as the charismatic quizmaster of ITV’s The Chase – a post he’s held since its 2009 debut – that Bradley is perhaps best known.
Venturing into new territory, Bradley has joined forces with Barney for the BBC’s fresh take on Gladiators. While chatting to BBC’s Tommy Tiernan, Bradley shared the joy the show brings him.
He revealed: “It’s one of the most wonderful things I’ve ever done because spending time with my lad. From the age of 18, he’s now 26 by the way, that’s how long the show’s been running, it was just extraordinary.”
