Like most things this year, the filming of Peaky Blinders was undoubtedly affected by the coronavirus pandemic, but that didn't stop us talking about it. Speaking to Digital Spy, Director Anthony Byrne revealed "We were due to start filming at the end of March [2020] until the end of July. If we did start shooting in January, we wouldn't finish until May / June and then it's another 6 months of editing." The series is set to return in 2021.
