Bradley Walsh hilariously winds up his son Barney in a first glimpse at the brand new series of Breaking Dad.

Bradley, 65, and Barney, 28, are back on the road once more as they head down under for a spectacular Australian adventure in the seventh series of their beloved ITV programme.

In the new six-part series, Bradley and Barney will explore the sweeping wilderness and coastal thrills of Australia and, as always, Bradley will be far from getting the peace and quiet he so desperately craves.

Barney has put together a jam-packed schedule brimming with adrenaline-fuelled challenges designed to push his father to his limits across the Australian outback and beyond.

In a first look clip, the father and son duo are seen at Manly Beach, a hugely popular surfing spot on Sydney's northern beaches, renowned for its golden sands.

Barney tells his dad Bradley: "This is where the very first surfing competition was held here in Manly Beach" to which Bradley is left stunned as he replies: "Oh, what, not in Hawaii?" with Barney confirming: "No, here in Manly Beach, Australia, 1964."

As the pair enjoy a leisurely stroll along the shoreline, Bradley remarks: "I can't believe, seriously, the amount of people that are on the beach so early in the morning. It's an absolute joke. And why aren't they at work? What do they do for a living?" to which Barney teases: "You find everything to moan about!" with Bradley disagreeing.

Barney then adds: "Interesting thing about this place, right, Manly Beach, people come here to moan" to which a sceptical Bradley replies: "Is that true or are you winding me up?"

Barney then continues: "They get up in the morning, they come here, they moan about trivial things, and then they run in the sea to get rid of all the stress and anger before they start their day."

With Bradley responding: "I moan and I go and get rid of the moan? This is like cleansing, is it?"

As Bradley makes his way towards the water, Barney encourages: "This is a cleansing experience. Have fun. Right, get your moans out. You want to shout about it?"

As Bradley returns to the shore without unleashing his moans, Barney asks: "What are you doing? You have to shout about it" to which Bradley hilariously replies: "Give me a chance. I'm trying to come all the way back to see what you just said."

Offering further guidance, Barney continues: "You have to go in there, you have to shout, you have to moan, you have to go: 'I'm fed up of not being able to hear anything because I'm old and 65 and my hearing's bad.'"

To which Bradley jokes: "No need to shout now is there, right, so what have you got to moan about?"

Teasing his famous dad, Barney shouts: "My dad moans at everything!" with Bradley responding: "Well, I'll tell you what, when you're a dad, you'll moan because you'll have kids, and your kids will drive you mad."
