PEAKY Blinders made an explosive return to the small screen last night (Wednesday).
Series four kicked off with the threat of a multiple hanging and finished with two characters being shot on Christmas morning.
Parts of the gritty period drama were once again filmed at Dudley's Black Country Living Museum, which has been described as the "home of Peaky Blinders".
Tables, chairs, wooden whisky crates and travelling caravan carts were placed along the museum's canal arm and anchor forge to transform it into Charlie Strong’s scrap metal yard.
Speaking from the Tipton Road set earlier this year, writer Steven Knight, (pictured above) said: "When I was a kid, my dad used to take me when he was shoeing horses and we used to go to scrapyards and stables. One of them was Charlie Strong’s yard, which was a real place, and he was a real person.
"When I was creating the series I wanted to recreate that yard and this is just perfect, it looks just like it."
He said the show's stars, including Cillian Murphy and Helen McCrory "love" filming at the museum, adding: "Wherever you point the camera, you're still in the historic world, you're not going to suddenly see a motorway or a towerblock.
"I love it and it just makes it a very contained environment. Where possible, we try to start the filming here as it gets everyone in the mood, it gets everyone in the spirit of the time."
The drama will continue with episode two BBC Two next Wednesday at 9pm.
