Peaky Blinders fans could own Cillian Murphy’s cap and coat from his role as a mob boss in the hit TV series.

The Irish star, 42, who plays Tommy Shelby in the gangster drama, is donating items from his on-set wardrobe to a charity auction.

It will raise money for The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, for cancer care, based in Manchester.

The Inception and Dunkirk star donned the overcoat in the third series of the drama and the cap in the fifth instalment, which is due to air on BBC One.

The show boasts celebrity fans such as David Beckham, Samuel L Jackson and Snoop Dog.

The auction will also feature other items from Steven Knight’s crime family saga, set in Birmingham before the Second World War, including the fleece Murphy wore when he was not on camera.
