Peaky Blinders fans hail creator’s ‘superb’ new series as ‘best British show ever’

Viewers of the new series, A Thousand Blows, have showered the show with praise after it debuted on Disney Plus on Friday (23 February).

The new show, which stars Stephen Graham, Erin Doherty and Malachi Kirby, blends the world of London’s underground boxing scene in the Victorian era and the story of The 40 Elephants, an all-female gang of thieves, prominent in the 1920s. It’s the latest creation from Peaky Blinders mastermind, Steven Knight.
