Peaky Blinders fans, we have something to tide you over until Season 6.

The entirety of Season 5 is going to be landing on Netflix in spring, giving you more than a legitimate reason to watch the whole thing again. Hurrah!

The show's official Twitter confirmed the news, tweeting: "Peaky Blinders s5 comes to Netflix on April 22."

The fifth instalment of the gangster drama - which aired in September last year - saw Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) battle a formidable new enemy in Oswald Moseley (Sam Claflin), all the while suffering with haunting visions of Grace.

Elsewhere Michael Gary (Finn Cole) brought home his new wife Gina Gary (Anya Taylor Joy), and Alfie Solomons (Tom Hardy) made a surprise return, much to the delight of fans.

The season ended with the Peakys forming an alliance with the Billy Boys in order to bring down Moseley. However, their assassination plans are foiled when their sniper is killed before he can carry out the deed, while meanwhile, Aberama Gold is murdered.

Final scenes show Tommy trying to work out who betrayed them, and fans had their suspicions in Gina Gray.

It was one of the most explosive series to date, and we can't wait to relive it all.

Currently, all four of the previous series are on the streaming platform, meaning when 5 drops, fans will be able to watch the entire thing back-to-back.

All five seasons are also available to watch now on BBC iPlayer, but you'll need a TV licence.

If you're up to date and are dying to find out what happens with Tommy and Oswald, then rest assured Season 6 of the Birmingham gangster series is on the way.

Director Anthony Byrne - who also worked on the last season - has said he was going to officially start working on the show in November 2019.

Speaking to GQ, he said: "I'm reading the scripts at the moment, which Steven [Knight] is writing. I start properly on series six in early November. Then we start shooting early next year, is the plan."

Of course, Polly Gray was back and badder than ever (

Peaky Blinders Season 5 lands on Netflix on 22nd April 2020.
