It’s a global smash. So it’s no surprise the makers want to try and cash in on that when they can.“There are a couple of unofficial pubs out there already which the makers want to bring to heel.“The Coyote Ugly film [about a gang of bar workers, released in 2000] spawned bars all over the world and Caryn knows Peaky Blinders could have that same appeal.”Commercial heads have reportedly filed for trademarks to open establishment chains and launch official jewellery, grooming and clothing collections.

The documents have been lodged with the Intellectual Property Office.If accepted, Caryn Mandabach Productions will have legal protection to use the terms to market goods and services for 10 years.Meanwhile, Peaky Blinders has revealed a competition for fans in the build-up to season six of the show, which is due to return to BBC One for a final outing this year.Fans have the chance to carry out a series of orders from the Peaky Blinders themselves.Shared on the show’s official Instagram page last month, a note declared: “Over the next month you will be issued with a series of orders that you must carry out, each more challenging than the last.
