The newly released teaser for the upcoming series of Peaky Blinders features a first look at Manchester’s Castlefield neighbourhood as a backdrop to the Birmingham drama.
Peaky Blinders’ Twitter account announced that series 6 is set to return on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in early 2022, with a clip featuring Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby walking through a dark, cobbled street.
Screen Manchester worked with the locations team to facilitate access to various appropriate Manchester locations for the creation of the series, set in 1930s Birmingham, and brought one of the main locations of the drama to Castlefield, which is the backdrop for multiple key scenes.
The film office for Manchester has been involved in facilitation since 2020.
