Peaky Blinders is to return to TV to follow the exploits of a new generation of the Shelby family after World War Two.

The sixth series, which was broadcast in 2022, was billed at the time as the "the end of an epic story", although producers did say the story would "continue in another form".

A forthcoming Peaky Blinders film, set at the start of the war, will see Cillian Murphy reprise his role as gang leader Tommy Shelby.

That will now be followed by two new TV seasons, which "will be rooted in Birmingham and will tell the story of a city rising from the ashes of the Birmingham blitz", creator Steven Knight said. "The new generation of Shelbys have taken the wheel and it will be a hell of a ride."
