The production of series six of Peaky Blinders has been halted over fears about coronavirus, according to the programme’s official Instagram page.
The post said: “After much consideration, and in light of the developing situation concerning Covid-19, the start of production of Peaky Blinders series 6 has been postponed.
“Huge thanks to our incredible cast and crew, and to all our amazing fans for their continued support.”
It was revealed this week actors and crew from the hit series Peaky Blinders had planned to shoot new scenes in Portsoy over five days.
Stars Cillian Murphy, Paul Anderson and Helen McCroy were expected to stay at The Seafield Arms in Whitehills, five miles along the coast, at the end of June.
The decision comes after the crew were impressed by the way the residents handled the filming of the 2016 remake of the classic comedy Whisky Galore.
