They don't look anything alike.

By order of the Peaky Blinders: listen up to this really cool event coming to Cork

They don’t look anything alike.

Peaky Blinders is one of the best shows on TV at the moment. If you haven’t got into it yet, then make time to do so. It’s fronted by our very own Cillian Murphy, who is joined by even more Irish talent for the new series, Charlie Murphy and Aidan Gillen.

While we’re getting to know all the characters now, it’s taken us by surprise to learn that two of them are actually brothers in real life.

Michael Gray and John Shelby, who are cousins in the show are brothers.

Brothers Finn and Joe Cole play the characters. Joe has been a part of the show from the beginning, whereas Finn joined last series as the gang’s long-lost cousin.
