Peaky Blinders Star Says Final Season Will Air Early Next Year

Peaky Blinders star Conrad Khan has let slip that the final season will be hitting our screen early next year.

Twenty-one-year-old Khan has joined the show for its sixth and final season and in a recent interview has revealed that we don't have too long to wait until it finally lands on BBC.

Khan told Radio Times: "That comes out, from what I last heard - I mean, these things change so quickly - I think that will come out next February, the beginning of next year.

"There was so much footage, so many episodes, that it does take a while to edit - six months or something."

Khan, who also stars in BBC's Baptiste, said he wrapped filming earlier this year.

"Yeah I finished that a few months ago now," he said.

"That was super enjoyable. It's quite different to [Baptiste] in a sense that it's more action based rather than psychological drama, but that was such an amazing experience.

"I met a lot of highly esteemed actors. It feels like a different world now because I've just been at home, working on my uni stuff and reading, so it does feel like a different world."

As well as Khan, earlier this year it was revealed that Time actor Stephen Graham had joined the cast for the final season.

Sharing a snap of Graham in costume, a tweet from the show's official account read: "We're thrilled that @StephenGraham73 has joined the cast of #PeakyBlinders series 6."

And the Scouse star appears to have been absolutely delighted to have been working with Cillian Murphy.

Speaking to Chris Moyles on Radio X back in June, he said: "Cillian's such a wonderful actor, he's amazing and what a lovely, lovely, lovely fella.

"To the extent, Chris, where there was a couple of moments - I had to pinch myself a couple of times because I was sat there in a scene with him, doing a rehearsal and stuff and I've kinda gone, 'Ahh that's Tommy Shelby!'"

He added: "He's just an absolutely lovely fella and a phenomenal actor."
