A Cillian Murphy lookalike has told how his close resemblance to the Peaky Blinders star has helped him make a lucrative living as a Tommy Shelby double.
Shannon Clayton, 30, admits he never had any desire to work as an impersonator of the Cork-born actor’s lead character - describing his work at Peaky Blinders-themed events as “a bit cheesy”.
However, he concedes that being doppelgänger for Cillian Murphy has helped him earn a good living, with offers of work coming in from as far away as the US.
