The sixth season of Peaky Blinders delivered intense and dramatic moments, including the destruction of the Shelby family mansion, a gripping near-suicide incident involving Cillian Murphy's iconic character, Tommy Shelby, and the intriguing introduction of his son, Duke, into the family's criminal endeavors.
Tragically, the season also marked the absence of Polly Gray, the matriarch of the Shelby family, following the real-life passing of the talented actress Helen McCrory, known for her role in the Harry Potter series. Her character's death was addressed in the Season 6 premiere.
Now, the burning question remains – will the gripping saga of Peaky Blinders continue in a seventh season?
Peaky Blinders is not slated for a Season 7, as series creator Steven Knight made the decision to conclude the BBC drama with Season 6 back in January 2021, a period marked by the challenges posed by the COVID pandemic. However, fans can take solace in the fact that the saga of the Birmingham-based Shelby family is far from finished.
In the official statement that accompanied the announcement of the series ending, Knight assured fans that although Peaky Blinders would bid adieu, «the story will continue in another form.»
While the anticipation for a Season 7 may no longer be on the horizon, loyal viewers can look forward to the Shelby family's return in a feature film. Furthermore, there's the tantalizing potential for spin-off projects to follow in the wake of the movie release.
