The reading of Peaky Blinders

The head gang from the programme 'Peaky Blinders'

The programme Peaky Blinders is aimed at an audience of an older age group but also at people who would appreciate the kind of era that its set in - people who have either experienced the time or have an understanding of what the time was like.

The oppositional audience would be parents or younger people who may take a bad influence from the series or may take a bad idea of what the people of that time were like and form a negative opinion on them - not understanding the historical context that the series is put into.

The negotiated audience would be people who did not know much about what happened in that time but who have some idea of what was going on. These may take away the idea that people of the time were violent and aggressive but also understand why they acted that way - to protect others and regain control of their lives.
