Character guide

Bounty Hunters. Barnaby Walker (Jack Whitehall). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Barnaby Walker

AKA: Barnaby Mallard Walker.  Played by: Jack Whitehall

Barnaby Walker is uptight and has never left the safety of university, where he is studing a seemingly endless art history PhD in Flemish textiles.

No one in his family takes him seriously, so when his father winds up in hospital following a mysterious accident he's determined to save the day by taking over the Walkers' struggling antiques business. He's out to prove himself, but along the way, he discovers secrets about his family that make him question everything he's formerly taken for granted.

Bounty Hunters. Nina Morales (Rosie Perez). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Nina Morales

Played by: Rosie Perez

Badass bounty hunter Nina Morales isn't afraid of breaking rules (or bones). From the gritty heart of New York City, she's a fiery Puerto Rican whose family comes first.

A breadwinner, she supports her overbearing mother, her directionless niece Sofia, and her cousin Pancho, who's far from the sharpest tool in the shed. She tends to act first and ask questions later, and as a result is often in big trouble.

Bounty Hunters. Leah Walker (Charity Wakefield). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Leah Walker

Barnaby's sister doesn't think rules apply to her. She's never had a proper job or stuck with anything. Due to a mixture of luck, charm and her dad's willingness to bail her out, nothing has ever gone too wrong. Her attractiveness doesn't hurt, either.

Less naive than her brother, Leah knows her father's foibles and is prepared to use them to her advantage. She's also not afraid to screw people over. But the question is: how far will she go? When push comes to shove, is she as ruthless as she likes to think?

Bounty Hunters. Nigel Walker (Robert Lindsay). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Nigel Walker

AKA: Nigel Benedict Walker.  Played by: Robert Lindsay

Barnaby and Leah's dad Nigel is a wheeler dealer. He gets away with it, though, because he went to the right school and talks the right way.

Ostensibly an upright antiques' dealer, he's bright, charming and good at what he does. From the outside he's the perfect family man, too - with kids, a posh Wimbledon pad and a wife he's been married to for decades. However, he's a man with many secrets. And he's out for himself, more than you could believe.

Bounty Hunters. Colin McQueen (Steve Pemberton). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Colin McQueen (Series 2)

Played by: Steve Pemberton

Colin McQueen is a history teacher at Eton College, whose interests lie more in the 'specialist' end of the antiques market.

Having dealt with Nigel in the past, Colin wants to get his hands on that final, elusive piece of art and believes Barnaby might be the man to help him.

Bounty Hunters. Fiona Walker (Sophie Thompson). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Fiona Walker

Played by: Sophie Thompson

A loving mum, devoted wife and committed member of the Wimbledon WI, Fiona succeeds by not seeing things she doesn't want to see. She puts her wayward daughter's behaviour down to her artistic temperament and believes her husband Nigel is honest and faithful. It's Barnaby who keeps her up at night. She reckons he's sweet but useless, and not the sort of person you'd trust with anything important.

Maria (Series 1)

Played by: Olga Merediz

Maria is Nina's mother. She finds herself in London mixed up in all the troubles.

Bounty Hunters. Sofia (Daniella Piper). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Pancho (Series 1)

Played by: Gabriel Rodriguez (as G-Rod)

Pancho is part of Nina's family.

Bounty Hunters. Angel (Christian Ochoa). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Angel

AKA: Angel Flores.  Played by: Christian Ochoa

Angel is the violent son of Mexican cartel lord Alejandro and is obsessed with reputation and revenge. His family are losing their grip on the criminal underworld and he wants to help them win back their power, particularly because he feels his father has never taken him seriously. He's a dangerous man with a point to prove. God help anyone who gets in his way.

Angel is obsessed with reputation and revenge especially since he's been locked in Barnaby and Nina's car boot for days, being helped to piss in a bottle by Barnaby. He's a dangerous man with a point to prove and our hapless heroes are very much in his sights.

Bounty Hunters. DI Suleiman (Amber Aga). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

DI Suleiman (Series 1)

Played by: Amber Aga

Suleiman is a brilliant detective hell-bent on stopping the art antiquities trade that funds terrorists. The problem is, no one else seems to back her in her cause, least of all her boss, DCI Robinson. Suleiman's determination to bring down the black market's biggest players puts her at odds with the establishment. Although she doesn't care, this could well be her undoing.

Bounty Hunters. DS Evans (Ben Bailey Smith). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Bounty Hunters. Keegan Sherman (Bradley James). Copyright: Cave Bear Productions

Keegan Sherman

Played by: Bradley James

Even for twins, Webb and Keegan's relationship is decidedly close, with Keegan's feelings for his brother crossing a particularly troubling line. Still, underestimate them at your peril. The Shermans may not like getting their hands dirty, but know plenty of people who do.

The twins want to get their hands on Hitler's only nude painting, Die Braunen Jungfrauen, and they will go to any length to do so, including hiring an assassin and putting a price on Barnaby's head.

Alejandro (Series 1)

Played by: Daniel Faraldo

Mexican cartel lord Alejandro is the head of a crime family, but their apparently illustrious family history makes for nothing when money is on the wane. Can Angel help him get the family's honour back?
