Cillian Murphy reveals he\'s keen to stay on Peaky Blinders as long as the writing stays strong

And thankfully the Irish actor is in it for the long haul, revealing to the Radio Times that he\'s already being lined up to film series four later this year.

The 39-year-old, who has become one of the many A-listers turning their hand to the small screen, assures as long as the scripts remain constantly strong he\'s keen to stick with the BBC period drama. 

He said: "I’m filming the fourth in September, which is set in the mid to late 1920s, and I know after that [writer and creator] Steve Knight is keen for [Cillian’s character] Tommy to be seen as the first air-raid sirens go off for the Second World War. I would embrace that, as long as the writing stayed strong. 

Peaky Blinders\' Cillian Murphy: \'I\'m not a tough guy\'

Peaky Blinder killed Benny’s grandad... but he’d still love to...

"What is changing on this side of the Pond is that we’re being given time to let characters evolve over four or five series, which wasn’t always the case before. We’re in a golden time for television."

The series, which follows the story of a real-life criminal gang of the early 20th century, has gone on to huge acclaim and picked up two BAFTAs.

Amid the BBC facing enormous scrutiny under Culture Secretary John Whittingdale, the show has been cited as one of the reasons to keep the BBC licence fee.

Wading into the ongoing debate, Cillian says: "Paying our licence fee gives the viewer more power over what the BBC puts out.

"We are invested in the stations and that’s a good way to be. And giving the BBC freedom from advertising and keeping it as independent as it can be is a good thing."

Cillian Murphy stars in the third series of Peaky Blinders which will air on the BBC this Autumn.
