PEAKY Blinders star Cillian Murphy teased worrying signs for his character Tommy Shelby as he threw up on the street in new season six scenes.
The actor, 44, could be seen dressed in a sharp black waistcoat and suit trousers, along with a crisp white shirt, as he strolled outside a courthouse.

Yet perhaps with impending legal worries on his mind, the mob leader pulled off his dark long-line coat and flat cap and proceeded to unceremoniously vomit on the steps of the building.
He was seen clutching to a black metal handrail as he recovered, with black sunglasses covering his eyes.
Later, Tommy was seen wiping his mouth before he headed up the steps.
Once there, actor Cillian reunited with co-star Natasha O’Keeffe, who plays Lizzie, at the top.
It is unclear what Tommy is heading to court for – and whether he is involved in legal action, or one of the other Shelbys is.
Other shots saw the Irish actor rehearsing his lines outside of the cream-coloured building, clutching a script in his left hand.
It was confirmed last month that production on series six of the hit BBC drama had begun, after being delayed by the coronavirus pandemic.
Images released in February showed Cillian on set in Scotland as Tommy, engaging in a tense altercation with Michael (Finn Cole).
Portsoy Harbour in Aberdeenshire appeared to be doubling up as a prison, with Michael dressed in an inmate uniform.
Meanwhile Tommy wore his trademark Peaky Blinders hat and a black winter coat as he approached Michael and a number of prison guards.
Previously, Peaky Blinders’ director has hinted Tommy could come face to face with Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, in what will be the final season of the show.
The BBC series protagonist was captured standing in an eerie red cell in Germany, wearing his iconic flat cap and staring at a spot on the floor.
Peaky Blinders‘ official Twitter page, as well as director Anthony Byrne, uploaded the shot to Twitter with the telling caption: “On a gathering storm
comes a tall handsome man in a dusty black coat with a red right hand.”
Then follows: “Tommy goes to Berghain..!”
Berghain is a nightclub in Berlin, found near the border between Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain.
Previously, the Peaky Blinders Twitter page uploaded an image of the actor dressed as Tommy next to the crime boss’ favourite horse.
He’s looking down at his script as the horse cosies up next to him.
However, the page didn’t give anything away, with the account tagging director Anthony Byrne and captioning the pic: “#PeakyBlinders series 6.”
Previously, show bosses confirmed the final Season Six Peaky Blinders instalment will see the Shelby family fight for their lives.
The drama had to delay production due to the coronavirus pandemic, but it was been revealed in January that filming had begun.
Creator and writer Steven Knight said: “Peaky is back and with a bang. After the enforced production delay due to the Covid pandemic, we find the family in extreme jeopardy and the stakes have never been higher.
“We believe this will be the best series of all and are sure that our amazing fans will love it.”
However, Steven teased there would be more from Peaky Blinders despite the show ending, adding: “While the TV series will be coming to an end, the story will continue in another form.”
A release date is yet to be confirmed by the BBC for the next instalment of Peaky Blinders yet once the series has aired on the BBC, it will be available on Netflix six months later.
