S13 Ep14: The Real Peaky Blinders

Long before the hit TV series turned them into legends, the real Peaky Blinders ruled the backstreets of Birmingham. With swagger in their step, and blood on their hands — they were the original urban gangsters of Britain’s industrial age.

In Blood Ties: The Real Peaky Blinders, we uncover the brutal truth behind the myth — the poverty, the power, and the violence that shaped a generation of men who became symbols of rebellion. We separate fact from fiction to reveal how a local street gang became an enduring piece of British folklore.
