About this deal

Peaky’s biggest impact has been in Birmingham itself, where civic pride is fierce but rarely projected. “I think as technology and the economy moves on, a lot of people like to think about the origins of this place,” says Andy Street, another Birmingham boy and now mayor of the West Midlands. “There is a real affection that the show has tapped into.” These were not handsome, charismatic men; they were vicious, vile men

Jó döntésnek bizonyult, hogy a Pollyt szinte absztinenciával gyászoló Tommy kezéből kivették a decis whiskyt, hiszen a karakter alapvetően hedonista alkat, mértéktelen pia- és nőfogyasztás jellemzi, de főleg a hatalom a gyengéje. Érdekes lett volna megnézni, hogy ha borul az egyensúly, az milyen hatással van élete egyéb területeire. De ez a szál is olyan lett, mint egy befejezett mondat, amelynek a végén mégis felviszik a hangsúlyt: feleslegesen vártunk a semmire. There are no royalties in haircuts but Mandabach now commands a branding juggernaut. Peaky has spawned official festivals, video games, beers, escape room experiences, grooming products and Monopoly boards, as well as less official club nights, merchandise and vintage clothing lines. In 2018, the show was credited in the UK with boosting the popularity of the baby names Arthur and Ada (Ada Thorne is Tommy and Arthur’s sister).

Photograph: Jacob King/PA Murphy has admitted that Peaky is “working within the limitations of the gangster genre and things are heightened”. But Knight insists he is more interested in the scars – particularly the emotional ones – than the violence itself. “The biggest example is the violence of the first world war, the consequence of which carries on through six series,” he says. “It’s ugly, so we try to depict it as ugly.” So while series six will be the last, the franchise will live on. A dance-theatre production, written by Knight and choreographed by the Rambert dance company, is due to open at the Birmingham Hippodrome later this year before a nationwide tour. A feature film is in the works. Knight has said it may spawn further TV shows.

ha már itt tartunk, az előző évad „főgonosza”, Oswald Mosley, akit Sam Claflin amúgy remekül alakít, sajnos többször érte el a súlytalanság állapotát, mintha ezerszer utazott volna az űrbe és vissza. Az ötödik évadban úgy mutatta be a fogalomként kevésbé elhíresült, de annál inkább létező brit fasisztákat, hogy mellette valódi hatása is volt a Shelby család életére. Ehhez képest a hatodikban összesen egy korkép biodíszletére zsugorodott a karakter jelentősége. Helen McCrory halálával, aki Polly Grayt játszotta, úgy tűnik, a sorozat egyik legfontosabb szereplőjét veszítettük el. Bár Murphy a lényegi hozzávalója annak a receptnek, amitől a Peaky Blinders nemcsak fogyasztható volt, de egyenesen díjnyertes fogás, most bebizonyosodott, hogy McCrory jelentette azt a fűszert, amely nélkül az alapanyagok nem állnak össze. A színésznőnek gyönyörű búcsút rendeztek a sorozatban, Polly Grayt temettük, de a jelenet egyértelműen Helen McCrory előtt tisztelgett. Knight has been amazed – at the festival and just while walking past the haircuts and caps during any stroll through Birmingham – to observe the impact of the world he has now nurtured for a decade. “But the great thing is, and I think this is an element of Englishness, is that everyone’s aware of their own absurdity, including me,” he says. “They’re not detached from reality.”

Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a puzzle-adventure video game, based on the multi-award-winning BBC and Netflix TV show. Before the pandemic, Birmingham was in the grip of a tourism boom that Street put partly down to Peaky mania. The city is on Hollywood’s map; Cruise was there last year to film his latest impossible mission. Knight is poised to announce plans for a new film studio in Digbeth, a thriving former industrial area close to Small Heath. “I don’t think any of this could’ve happened without Peaky Blinders,” Street says.

Photograph: Andrew Fox/The GuardianItt az idő belemenni abba, hogy a hatodik évadot miért nem soroljuk az eddigi minőségi részek közé. I wish I could have a dime for every Peaky haircut I see here in Soho,” says Caryn Mandabach from her office in London. The American TV producer moved to the UK 15 years ago after producing US comedies including Roseanne and The Cosby Show, and her eponymous UK production company owns and produces Peaky Blinders. The elephant in the blood-spattered room is violence. Peaky Blinders is brutal in the grand, blood-letting tradition of on-screen gangsterism. When Arthur announces that the jazz club is under new management, he does so while holding the limp body of its outgoing manager, whose face we have just watched him destroy with a broken wine bottle.
