Peaky Blinders<\/a> is to get a spin-off series, according to the BBC. The new show will focus on Birmingham after the second world war, and will follow the Shelby family<\/a> who starred in the show\u2019s previous incarnation.<\/p>\n

Two series have already been commissioned, to air on both the BBC and Netflix, with the narrative starting in 1953.<\/p>\n

The plot will be based around the race to rebuild Birmingham after heavy bombing by the Luftwaffe, and wrangling over the city\u2019s reconstruction project.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to be announcing this new chapter in the Peaky Blinders story,\u201d said the show\u2019s creator and writer, Steven Knight<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce again it will be rooted in Birmingham and will tell the story of a city rising from the ashes of the Birmingham blitz. The new generation of Shelbys have taken the wheel and it will be a hell of a ride.\u201d<\/p>\n

The spin-off is the latest incarnation in the Peaky Blinders multiverse after Rambert Studios\u2019 ballet about Tommy Shelby<\/a> \u2013 the character played by Cillian Murphy \u2013 and <\/a>the upcoming movie<\/a>, which will see Murphy reprise his role.<\/p>\n

\u201cSteven has worked his magic once again and I can\u2019t wait for his scripts to be brought to life when filming begins in Birmingham,\u201d said Lindsay Salt, director of BBC Drama. \u201cThere\u2019s plenty of drama for Peaky fans to look forward to!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Peaky Blinders is to get a spin-off series, according to the BBC.
