This season is set to be the most intense yet as we return to 1919, just after the First World War has ended with a bang. The Shelbys are in their prime as they make moves on both sides of the law – for power and profit. Once again, we will meet old friends like Grace (Annabelle Wallis) and Tommy’s wife Mimi (Pollyanna Woodward), but there are new characters too, including Aimee-Ffion Edwards, who plays May Carleton.

THE PLOT:
In season six, it’s 1922, and Tommy (Cillian Murphy) has just returned from America after spending time in jail.

The season will be set in 1929 and will follow Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) as he seeks to protect his family, business, and way of life when a national force is introduced from London. As one era ends, another begins for the Peaky Blinders gang with an aging leadership whose time has come and gone.
The Shelbys are not the only family that will be deeply affected by this unrest – they’re just the ones who get left standing at the end. And, as always, it’s a balancing act between keeping business thriving whilst dealing with gangsters from other families and trying to avoid being drawn.
