Proper Job’s first commission is a two-part series for BBC2 on the Real Peaky Blinders; the history behind the highly successful drama. The series explores the Victorian inner-city gangs that terrorised Britain’s industrial cities in the late 19th Century and the early 20th century gangsters from Birmingham and London that gave rise to organised gangsterism in the UK including the real Sheldon family (the Shelbys in the drama), the real Alfie Solomon, the real Darby Sabini and the closest Britain came to having its own Al Capone, the real Billy Kimber.
