The transmission date has been revealed for the new Sky comedy-drama Bounty Hunters starring Jack Whitehall and Rosie Perez.

It will air from Wednesday 25 October at 10pm on Sky One.

When his antiques dealer dad winds up in hospital following a mysterious accident, book-smart Barnaby (Jack Whitehall) takes it upon himself to save the family's cash-strapped business. What could possibly go wrong? Well, a dodgy deal masterminded by his father (Robert Lindsay) leaves Barnaby £50,000 down and lumbered with a looted treasure. He's determined to reclaim his cash, but to do so, he needs help. Big time.

Enter Nina Morales (Rosie Perez), a tough New Yorker who Barnaby's sister (Charity Wakefield) met while travelling. She and Barnaby couldn't be more different. She's a gun-toting, Brooklyn bounty hunter, while he drives a smart car and lives in Wimbledon. She's wanted by a Mexican cartel while he's doing a PhD in Flemish textiles. They team up on a mission to get his money back. But Barnaby's quiet life soon spirals further out of control, when they're forced into the paths of the police, terrorists and a dangerous Mexican drug cartel...
