Peaky Blinders director Anthony Byrne has assured fans of the show that the season 6 finale<\/a> will be one to remember for all the right reasons.<\/p>\n

The BBC crime drama, which follows the exploits of Birmingham gangster and MP Tommy Shelby and his inner circle, first arrived on our screens back in 2013 and has, over time, more than doubled its audience thanks to creator Steven Knight\u2019s bombastic storytelling and several standout performances<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But Sunday 3rd April will see the show make its final TV outing prior to the Peaky Blinders film<\/a>, which is currently in the early stages of development.<\/p>\n

Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a> about the finale, Byrne explained: \u201cI said it once before to somebody else, endings of much-loved TV shows seem to be a very challenging feat to pull off, and I think we\u2019ve done it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what I would say to you. I\u2019m going to be very confident in saying that we have pulled off a very beautiful ending.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cI can also say that if the film never happened and this was the last time we saw Tommy Shelby, it\u2019s kind of perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peaky Blinders<\/a> episode 5 set the scene for an explosive finale, with Michael Gray now set to snuff out Tommy<\/a> once and for all \u2013 and it\u2019s not looking good for Arthur either, with mobster Jack Nelson<\/a> ordering Billy Grade aka the \u2018Black Cat\u2019<\/a> to ensure that Tommy\u2019s brother suffers the same fate.<\/p>

But even if Michael \u2013 or any of Tommy\u2019s enemies \u2013 don\u2019t succeed in murdering him, he looks set to meet a grisly end<\/a> regardless, although you\u2019d be forgiven for being sceptical given his ability to wriggle out of tight spots.<\/p>\n

Are the Shelby patriarch\u2019s days really<\/em> numbered? Or does he have one final big trick up his sleeve?<\/p>\n

Peaky Blinders season 6 wraps up on BBC One and BBC iPlayer<\/a>\u00a0at 9pm on Sunday 3rd April 2022.<\/strong><\/p>\n
