Drama Crime

Creator Steven Knight

In the smoke and grime of Birmingham just after the First World War, the Shelby family runs the Peaky Blinders, a razor-capped gang clawing its way up from street bookmaking toward respectability and empire. At its head is Tommy Shelby, a war-scarred visionary whose icy cunning and ruthless ambition draw the attention of police crusaders, rival mobsters and shadowy political forces. As the family expands its reach, loyalty and blood are tested against greed and betrayal. Stylish and brooding, scored to anachronistic rock and shot like a Western, this British epic turns industrial England into mythic, dangerous territory.
