The BBC has released first-look at images at Peaky Blinders<\/a> season 6, which sees the long-awaited return of gangster Tommy Shelby, played once again by the brilliant Cillian Murphy.<\/p>\n

This time, he\u2019ll be continuing his war against fascist politician Oswald Mosley (portrayed by Sam Claflin), as well as crossing paths with a mysterious new character played by acclaimed actor and BAFTA nominee<\/a> Stephen Graham.<\/p>\n

This is to be the final television instalment in the highly popular crime saga, although creator Steven Knight has expressed an intention to continue the story in a feature film.<\/p>\n

Murphy downplayed talk of a big screen adaptation<\/a> in a recent interview, but given the enormous interest that continues to surround this franchise, the odds still seem good that it could live on in some capacity.<\/p>\n

In addition to the key art (featured above), another intriguing image from the season 6 premiere sees Shelby wielding a knife, as he is threatened with a broken bottle by someone in the Garrison pub.<\/p>\n

Peaky Blinders season 6 also sees the return of Anya Taylor-Joy, who has become an international superstar since the show\u2019s previous run, after her much-lauded starring role in The Queen\u2019s Gambit.<\/p>\n

Here she plays Gina Gray, who has had her eyes on Tommy\u2019s company over the past two seasons, manipulating her husband Michael (Finn Cole) into making dangerous moves against him.<\/p>\n

Season 6 also sees the return of supporting players in the Shelby clan, including Tommy\u2019s sister Ada (Sophie Rundle) and father Arthur (Paul Anderson), the latter of whom can be seen sporting a Father Christmas costume in the image below.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re curious to find out what the context is behind this particular image.<\/p>\n

The images also confirm the return of Charlene McKenna as Captain Swing, an enigmatic figure who earned Tommy\u2019s respect after making her debut in the fifth season.<\/p>\n
