Bulletproof: South Africa is out next week on Sky One — ahead of that a further series has been commissioned

Noel Clarke and Ashley Walters will very soon return as Aaron Pike and Ronnie Bishop in the Bulletproof franchise as Sky announces a fourth, 8×60’ series to air on Sky One and NOW TV. The third instalment airs on January 20 at 9 pm on Sky One. Next week sees them taking a holiday in South Africa. Unfortunately they get swept up in the kidnapping of a young girl. With time running out, the duo have to slip their protective vests under their Hawaiian shirts in order to track her down and solve a conspiracy in a three-part special showing a thrilling journey into the underworld of Cape Town.

For the fourth series, we’ve been told:

Bishop and Pike are set to be implicated in a grisly murder, leaving their jobs, lives and families hanging in the balance. The pair must use every ounce of skill and tenacity to bring down the most untouchable villain they’ve ever faced.

Shooting is scheduled for later this year in and around London.

Noel Clarke said:“We are ecstatic that Bulletproof has been commissioned for yet another season. It is a testament to the hard-working cast, crew, and everyone behind the scenes making it all happen. We work hard to bring you something entertaining and heartfelt and we hope you enjoy it when it returns!”

Ashley Walters said: “I am so pleased we can continue the journey of Bishop and Pike. This show has stood the test of time because of the heart we put into it. We really appreciate the support we have had from all that have watched. See you again soon.”

We understand from the press release this is one of Sky’s highest rating titles since its 2018 arrival. The trailer for South Africa is available here.
