22 Iconic British Period Dramas You Could Be Streaming Right Now

It's no secret that many at POPSUGAR are massive fans of Peaky Blinders, which is set in Birmingham just after World War I (it's quite refreshing to see a city-based period drama that isn't set in London). The show is about a family of criminal gangsters, and stars Cillian Murphy as the charismatic head of the family, Tommy Shelby. Don't make plans once you start watching this — you'll cancel them three episodes in.

Watch it on Netflix.
