The world premiere of the fifth season of Peaky Blinders took place in Birmingham last night.

The new season of the crime drama, which stars Cillian Murphy, Helen McCrory and Paul Anderson, will air on BBC One later this year. An official release date has yet to be announced. However, some fans reckon it could be very soon.

Speaking at the event last night, the show's creator Steven Knight said: "It's a very precious thing and we're keeping it going for another two series".

Season five of the hit show will be set in the aftermath of the Wall Street Crash where "opportunity and misfortune are everywhere".

"When Tommy Shelby MP (Cillian Murphy) is approached by a charismatic politician with a bold vision for Britain, he realises that his response will affect not just his family's future but that of the entire nation."

Knight also spoke to BBC News about Tommy Shelby's journey in the upcoming season.

"The fact that Tommy is now an MP for South Birmingham means that he has to retain his contacts with the people of Birmingham.

"We all know that he has many motives, but what I'm trying to do over the long game is to rehabilitate him."
