Peaky Blinders Star Says Final Season Will Air 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.

"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."
