Every breath we draw now brings us closer to the inevitable end of BBC’s iconic TV series, Peaky Blinders. We are definitely not ready for it, but we are nothing but powerless against this fate. However, even though the series is ending, nothing can stop us from watching some other enticing works from the beautiful artists that worked on the project. And in that spirit, we now have a brilliant show lined up featuring a star from the Peaky Blinders roster. Here is everything you need to know about the upcoming Netflix project: Damage.

The series will feature some of the finest talents in the industry, who have worked on amazing projects including Game of Thrones, The Hobbit, and of course, Peaky Blinders. Based on a 1991 novella of the same name, Damage is said to have great potential.

What is Netflix show Damage about?

Well, Damage is based on late author Josephine Hart’s successful novella of the same name. The novel tells the story of a rather dangerous affair of a politician and the love triangle that follows it. The fact that the show is about a British politician, and also pictures the downfall of the man, can probably give off a similar vibe to Peaky Blinders.

The show has been described as a “thrilling and seductive limited series about erotic obsession and forbidden desire”.

Along with them, the series will also feature Strangers’ Rish Shah and Chloe’s Pippa Bennett-Warner.
