The production of Peaky Blinders was stopped three weeks ago, as of March 16. A decision that could have come later if the cast had not mobilized as explained Helen McCrory to Deadline.

Even though she had answered present for a day of make-up and hairstyle tests before the shooting, the actress felt that "something huge was happening". "The next morning I woke up and told my producer that I was not comfortable going on ... Cillian Murphy did the same. Together with the producers, we approached the BBC to announce that we were going to stop immediately so as not to have to do it at the last moment. "
