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."
Breaking Dad is available to watch on ITVX.

Hollyoaks star Ali Bastian reveals her body is ‘under construction' after cancer
Former Hollyoaks star Ali Bastian has discussed her cancer recovery. The 43-year old actress played Becca Dean on the Channel 4 soap for 6 years between 2001 and 2007. After leaving the show, she had a regular role in ITV police drama The Bill, and starred as Becky Clarke in since-axed BBC daytime medical series Doctors. In September, she revealed her diagnosis with stage two breast cancer, confirming that she discovered a lump whilst breastfeeding her daughter Isabella. At first, doctors believed the lump to be a blocked duct, though following a round of antibiotics and further tests done at a specialist clinic, cancerous cells were found. In December, she rang the bell after five months of treatment and, three months later, she revealed that she is cancer free. 'I wanted to update you all,' the star wrote on Instagram at the time. 'I'm on to my final week of radio therapy which should mark the end my active treatment – I hope and pray for good! 'I had my mastectomy in January which was thankfully a success and has healed really well, it proved that my chemo had worked. 'As I sit here right now, I'm free from Cancer. I can't even believe it.' She has now said that her body is 'under construction' and that she's considering reconstruction surgery following a mastectomy. 'I couldn't have a reconstruction at the time because we always knew I'd have to have radiotherapy. At some point there'll be some kind of something,' she told Giovanna Fletcher on her Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast 'Initially I was like 100% it's happening. But now, I want to have the conversations and talk through what the options are, but I'm not actually married to any of them at the moment.' She continued: 'I've got a really good prosthetic that makes a big difference. It means in clothes I feel normal. It's bright pink. It makes me happy. 'It's just very different to the lump of silicone that you get handed in the hospital, which is a hell of a moment. 'This is a lot lighter and easy to wear. I quite like that it doesn't look like a chicken fillet, like a pretend boob. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers? Who's leaving Coronation Street?

I just keep saying to myself really 'I'm still under construction, I've been through a lot, I'm healing at the moment'.' More Trending Ali shares two daughters, five-year old Isla and two-year old Isabella, with husband David O'Mahony. She continued to tell Giovanna that she now plans to focus on other health issues, such as a hernia that she developed during childbirth. 'I've got a big old hernia from my babies as well,' she said. 'Because of all of this I haven't been able to have that done, and actually I'm more keen to get that done than anything else because that is harder to hide. View More » 'It's like a tennis ball.

Emmerdale pulled from TV schedules amid dead body story
If you're planning on tuning into Emmerdale tonight you're going to be in for a shock, as the ITV soap won't be airing this evening. As the summer nears ever closer, we are slowly getting to the point where sport takes over a lot of the schedule. This happened last week when the UEFA Women's Nations League aired instead of Emmerdale, and will be happening again this evening. Here's everything you need to know. Live International Football begins at 7pm on ITV later and finishes at 10:05pm, meaning there won't be a slot free for Emmerdale to air. The friendly match is a men's game, England vs Senegal. Thankfully, you don't have very long to wait, as Emmerdale will air tomorrow at 7:30pm, for half an hour. The Thursday episode will be broadcasted as normal for one hour, starting at 7:30pm, and then Friday at 7:30-8pm. We ended Monday's episode with John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) forming a plan to try and get Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) off the hook. He is currently a prime suspect in Nate Robinson's (Jurell Carter) murder investigation, and John felt sorry for him when he said that he's desperate to grieve for his son. More Trending John will soon plant Nate's phone in Frankie's playhouse. The police will then search Tracy Shankley's (Amy Walsh) home, leaving them to grow suspicious of her, as they find the device in the garden. Elsewhere, Mandy Dingle (Lisa Riley) and Paddy Kirk (Dominic Brunt) realise Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards) has left Eve alone with his medication, Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) forgets an important anniversary, and Pollard (Chris Chittell) has some important news. View More » Up at Home Farm, a freshly recovered Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) is quick to assume Billy Fletcher (Jay Kontzle) has stolen Clemmie's phone and also, Jacob (Joe-Warren Plant) makes another discovery about Sarah (Katie Hill).

Who is Love Island's US star Antonia as fans divided by first bombshell
Love Island's first bombshell has been revealed as American pool waitress, Antonia Laites, who is bound to cause a stir among the class of 2025 as the new series gets underway on ITV Love Island's first bombshell is already in the villa and has caused a stir among fans as a new series of the ITV dating show gets underway. Fans couldn't wait for the sexy show to start last night and are in for a whole heap of drama as the new arrival was told that her entrance would send an 'original' girl packing. Pool waitress, Antonia Laites, from Sin City, Las Vegas, arrived as the end of Monday's launch episode to cause a stir among the saucy singletons. While the boys looked thrilled to see a new female in the house, not everyone was impressed. "Oh I can't be doing with the 'dramatic' twists already. Why can't you just see if they get on or not . Bring back the OG style of Love Island and the smoking round the fire pit," complained one fan. "Dumping someone after 2 days. What's the point in getting them in. Absolutely crazy. Waste of time waste of energy. They'd have prepped and gymed and dieted for weeks for this and told their work or whatever. To then be dumped after a day," fumed another. Other fans moaned about the arrival of the first American star in the villa, with one swiping: "Don't we have enough beautiful people of our own?" Stunning Antonia, 24, who was born in Connecticut, but has also lived n Miami, looks after the swanky VIP cabanas at the lavish Fontainebleau Resort in Vegas, where she waits on the rich and famous, while they soak up the sun. Speaking about bagging her 'coveted' job, she said: "I'm always the number 1 in sales at both hotels I work at. I'm a workaholic. You have to audition to get the job I've got - over 1000 people applied. There's only 10 cabana servers! For the audition they set up a fake pool deck, they tell you to load up trays and zig zag through the chairs. "The trays are heavy with pitchers and our large cocktails are really large! I've definitely dropped drinks on people before, but on the whole I'm really good." According to The Sun, Antonia has already sashayed into the villa, with a source saying: "Antonia landed as part of a huge first day and everyone is very excited." When asked who she is looking for in the villa, the American quipped: "Someone that can make me laugh - I'm super outgoing. And someone that's quite active. Maybe one day we could start our own family together." Ahead of her ITV debut, Antonia dubbed the dating scene in the states a 'mess', saying people are there for a 'good time, not a long time'. She also reckons she loves the British accent, claiming "British men are just more polite". She continued: "I've lived in three different states and I'm still single. It's time to try something new! I have some British friends and they're pretty charming. I think all Americans love a good accent. British men are just more polite, with better manners." However, she does have some deal breakers. Listing her "icks", she said: "Bad hygiene. Bad breath. Not getting hair cuts. If we're going on a date and you're not dressed for the occasion, then that's a bit of an ick! "I like to be treated like a lady, going to nice spas in Vegas, being taken to nice restaurants. I'm still waiting to be taken on vacation for a date." Heading into the villa, the brunette said she is looking for someone with "darker hair, definitely muscular but not too muscular. Super fit. Clean hair cut." Antonia has also revealed that she suffers from ulcerative colitis, which is an inflammatory bowel disease and can sometimes lead to life-threatening complications. Explaining that she was left hospitalised and needing an infusion when she younger, the bombshell said she almost missed her school prom but was allowed to go as long as she was back in hospital at 11pm "like Cinderella". Love Island host, Maya Jama, teased Antonia's entrance in last night's show as she purred, while sporting a silk dressing gown: "Oh, I've got a text... I've been expecting this one." She then listened to the message, which teased: "Hey Maya, I heard you want more twists. How about an American bombshell? Get ready, I'm on my way." * Love Island is on ITV at 9pm tonight
