is a British historical crime drama television series loosely based on the real Peaky Blinders, an urban youth criminal gang based in Birmingham, England, during the late 1800's and early 1900's centuries. The series stars Cillian Murphy as Thomas Shelby, a gangster operating during the aftermath of World War I.
The story is a "gangster family epic," which centers on the Peaky Blinders gang and their ambitious and highly dangerous boss Thomas Shelby.
Series 1 begins on February 6, 1919. Chief Inspector Chester Campbell is sent over from Belfast as a detective in the Royal Irish Constabulary by Winston Churchill, who tasks him with recovering a stolen cache of arms meant for Libya, as well as suppressing the disorder and uprising brewing in Birmingham. The series ends on December 3, 1919, a day Thomas calls "Black Star Day," and is when the Peaky Blinders plan to take over Billy Kimber's betting pitches at the Worcester Races.
Series 2 is set two years after the first, in 1922, and sees "the Shelby Family expand their empire South and North while maintaining a stronghold in their Birmingham heartland." The series ends on May 31, 1922, which is Derby Day.
Series 3 is set two years after the second in 1924.
Series 4 begins on December 24, 1925, with the Peaky Blinders getting word that the New York Mafia, led by Luca Changretta is coming to avenge the murder of his father. The series ends with the 1926 general strike, which lasted from May 4 through May 12, and Thomas being elected as a Member of Parliament in 1927.
Series 5 begins on October 29, 1929, a day known as Black Tuesday. The series ends on December 7, 1929, the morning after a rally led by British Union of Fascists and its leader Sir Oswald Mosley.
