New Era of Peaky Blinders Set to Begin with Two New Series

The much-loved series Peaky Blinders is making a dramatic return to BBC and Netflix. The show will follow a new generation of Shelbys, created and written by Steven Knight. Filming will take place at Digbeth Loc. Studios in Birmingham, where the story is also set.

The timeline moves to Britain in 1953, a period when Birmingham was rebuilding after the destruction of World War II. With the city rising from ruins, the race to control its massive reconstruction project sparks fierce competition. At the center of this struggle lies the Shelby family, driving the drama with danger, opportunity, and ambition.

Steven Knight expressed his excitement, saying the new chapter will remain rooted in Birmingham while showcasing the rise of the next generation of Shelbys. He described the journey as β€œa hell of a ride” for fans who have followed the saga from the start.

BBC Drama Director Lindsay Salt highlighted the show’s cultural impact, calling it one of the broadcaster’s most-loved dramas. She confirmed that fans can expect the same intensity and gripping storytelling that made Peaky Blinders a global success. Netflix’s Mona Qureshi echoed this enthusiasm, praising Knight’s storytelling and promising a thrilling continuation that will captivate global audiences.

Banijay UK CEO Patrick Holland described Peaky Blinders as β€œan iconic, era-defining drama” and said the new series will attract both longtime followers and newcomers. Richard Parker, Mayor of the West Midlands, welcomed the return, noting the show’s role in boosting tourism and creating job opportunities in the region.

The two new series, each consisting of six episodes, will be produced by Kudos and Garrison Drama in collaboration with BBC and Netflix. Key executive producers include Steven Knight, Cillian Murphy, and partners from both production houses. Support also comes from the West Midlands Combined Authority as part of a wider effort to strengthen creative industries in the region.

Fans can expect filming to begin soon in Birmingham, marking the start of an exciting new chapter in the Peaky Blinders story.
