Which Peaky Blinders series won BAFTA's Best Drama Series award?

Peaky Blinders series 4 won the BAFTA Television Award for Best Drama Series.

The award was presented at the 2018 British Academy Television Awards, recognising the fourth series against strong competition. The series follows Tommy Shelby and his family as their Birmingham criminal enterprise expands into increasingly dangerous political and international territory.

Series 4 is sometimes confused with series 3 or series 6 because both were highly acclaimed and received major award attention. However, series 4 is the specific instalment associated with Peaky Blinders’ Best Drama Series BAFTA win. Its story moves from the Shelby family’s apparent security to a violent confrontation with the Changretta family, creating one of the show’s most concentrated and widely praised seasons.

The programme later received further recognition, including awards for individual performances and craft, but the Best Drama Series victory belongs to series 4. The show ran for six series from 2013 to 2022, with Cillian Murphy playing Tommy Shelby throughout the main television run.
