for when that big screen outing might arrive, but in an exclusive interview with <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener

progress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNearly nearly nearly, it\u2019s almost there,\u201d he said when asked if the script had been finalised. \u201cSo, you know, we\u2019ve got the shooting schedule, we\u2019ve got the dates for when we start, so that\u2019s all going to happen.\u201d<\/p> <p>Speaking more about what ground the film will cover, Knight confirmed that it would be set during the Second World War, focusing on a number of previously untold real-life stories into which he will fold the Peaky Blinders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the same rules [as writing the TV show] but I mean, always with Peaky I\u2019ve tried to make it the same, but different.\u201d he explained. \u201cSo every new series has a different sort of purpose.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\"
