Other specific locations used include the National Waterways Museum Ellesmere Port in Cheshire and Little Underbank in Stockport, while filming took place on sets at Space Studios Manchester.

"What they are looking for are things that looked most like Dublin in 1868," he said. "And the fact is that Dublin now looks less like Dublin in 1868 than other areas do.

"Peaky wasn’t filmed in Birmingham, because Birmingham didn’t look like Birmingham in the 20’s anymore, or not enough of it did, so a lot was shot in Leeds and Bradford – it didn’t mean I was any less passionate about the city, and this being about the city, so it’s a purely practical decision."

"Unfortunately, very little remains of Dublin that still looks like it did in 1868. We quickly realised we’d have to film elsewhere. We travelled the length and breadth of Ireland and the UK, ending up in the North West of England, which had stately homes and Dublin-style streets — everything we needed.

Emily Fairn, who plays Anne, explained that a number of different stately homes were used to represent Iveagh House, and said that the sets used throughout the series were "incredible".

"Seeing the brewery for the first time was fascinating," he said. "For Ben, it’s both the literal and metaphorical architecture of his misery. I think the first time I saw it was actually during our first take of him returning there.

"He probably hadn’t been to it since he was a kid – and understandably so. Keeping Ben away from a place that brews beer is a pretty sensible decision. The way they transformed the old tobacco warehouse in Liverpool into a brewery was incredible. It really blew me away."

"There was a full kind of three days, I think, where we were filming this amazing chase sequence through the streets of New York," he revealed when speaking exclusively with RadioTimes.com. "It just felt fully like I wasn't in 2025, I was in 1870 or whatever.

"It was feeling like I was there, the amazing set dressing and everything, all of these amazing departments coming together to create this landscape and world, and it was just a joy to be a part of."
