Who else is returning?

Aside from the main cast, some of the memorable key players of the show will make a comeback. Tom Hardy is returning as Alfie Solomons.

What's the "Peaky Blinders" Season 4 plot about?

The "Peaky Blinders" Season 4 plot will likely be set in the 1920s period, particularly the fallout of the 1926 General Strike. Around this time, the country is still in the midst of recovering from the first World War.

With Hardy's return, it can be expected that Alfie and Tommy will clash in the upcoming season as the two were never close friends. According to Express UK, Knight revealed that they wouldn't be able to do the fourth season without Alfie, which means the character will play a key role in the drama this season.

As for Tommy, he will have to face a lot of family drama after what happened in the previous season. Everything has changed for him, and he has to do something to win back his family's trust.
