BBC Two series Peaky Blinders is filming in Falkner Square, off Canning Street, today and tomorrow.

There is expected to be a controlled explosion in the park as the dramatic scenes are filmed.

This afternoon passers-by spotted characters in period dress and a vintage car at the city park as scenes for the series were filmed.

The programme is set in 1920s Birmingham but producers have chosen locations across Liverpool to film.
