What happens
Peaky Blinders is a British historical crime drama television series created by Steven Knight. Set in Birmingham, it follows the exploits of the Peaky Blinders crime gang in the direct aftermath of the First World War. The fictional gang is loosely based on an urban youth gang active in the city from the 1880s to the 1920s. The series features an ensemble cast: led by Cillian Murphy, starring as Tommy Shelby, Helen McCrory as Elizabeth "Polly" Gray, Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby, Sophie Rundle as Ada Shelby, and Joe Cole as John Shelby, the group's senior members. Sam Neill, Annabelle Wallis, Iddo Goldberg, Tom Hardy, Charlotte Riley, Finn Cole, Natasha O'Keeffe, Paddy Considine, Adrien Brody, Aidan Gillen, Anya Taylor-Joy, Sam Claflin, Amber Anderson, James Frecheville, and Stephen Graham appeared across multiple episodes of the series. The series premiered on 12 September 2013 and was broadcast on BBC Two until the fourth series, after which it moved to BBC One for the fifth and sixth series. Netflix, under a deal with the Weinstein Company and Endemol, acquired the rights to release the show in the United States and around the world. In January 2021, it was announced that the sixth series, released in 2022, would be the final series. A feature-length film titled Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, which is set a few years after the series finale, was released on 6 March 2026. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
