Plans are being discussed for a new Peaky Blinders attraction to be created in Birmingham, with the city’s tourism officials “keen to get maximum draw” from the popularity spawned by the BBC One series.
The drama series, set in the West Midlands city in the twenties and thirties, focuses on local mob family The Shelbys, who rise up the ranks of the criminal underworld.
Despite the show’s storylines detailing the family’s violent and lawless antics, many believe Peaky Blinders hasn’t given Birmingham a bad reputation.
