Peaky Blinders, starring Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy, follows the life of Thomas Shelby in Birmingham in 1919, in the aftermath of the Great War.

Thomas is a returning war hero who runs one of the most powerful gangs in Birmingham.

‘It was a very stylish era, and with our twenties, speakeasy bar, it just seemed like the perfect fit.’

The team at TBT are going all out to impress residents.

Entertainment for the night will include a local singer singing modern songs with a twenties twist, burlesque dancers, stilt walkers and more.

Steve added: ‘We’re encouraging people to dress up and go full Shelby!

‘The theme will complement our night well as we’ll be serving our 1920’s themed cocktails.

‘We’ve already sold three quarters of our tickets so we’re expecting a great night!’ he added.
