Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has said the music of Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath is “the Birmingham soundtrack” after the singer’s cortege travelled through the city on Wednesday.
The 65-year-old, who grew up in the Birmingham area and whose BBC crime drama is set in the city, told the PA news agency that the procession, which saw Osbourne’s family travel through Birmingham with his hearse, saw an “outpouring of love” for the singer and the city from fans who gathered on the route.
