Peaky Blinders: Are you excited for a third series?

The series two finale of Peaky Blinders, starring Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy and Helen McCrory, aired in Britain last night (November 6) and was followed by a continuity announcer letting slip that the show would be "returning" to the channel.

The BBC later formally confirmed that the Steven Knight-penned period drama had been renewed.

Earlier this year, Knight revealed that he had already mentally prepared several ways for the Shelby family's saga to end.

"I've got an ending where [Cillian Murphy's character] is Sir Thomas Shelby, and it's the start of the Second World War," he said.

"The first siren goes off and that's it. What I'm trying to do with the whole thing is look at someone from his background: Can he get out and escape?"

In the US, the first series of Peaky Blinders is available to stream on Netflix, with the second being added later this month.
