Conformable variety, BBC Crime Drama Peaky Blinders– with Cillian Murphy as emerging gangster Tommy Shelby in post-World War I England – will come to a somewhat surprising end after its sixth season (it’s on Netflix here in the colonies). The show has just resumed production after shutting down everything for the COVID-19 pandemic and variety says that the announcement of the imminent return of the show was accompanied by the revelation that the sixth season will be his last. This is contrary to what was previously stated by creator Steven Knight, as he said in the past that the show will continue for at least seven seasons, but fans can at least be reassured that it will not be the end of Peaky Blinders franchise as a whole: Knight adds that the show will live in a form with variety guessing that there will be a “movie or spin-off.”
I would also guess a comic book or a video game, because the first one is relatively easy and the second one has already been made (there exists Peaky Blinders video game!), but we have no idea. Anyway, Peaky Blinders The TV show will return (and end) either later this year or early next year, and then continue in another form.
