Cillian, 44, who plays leader of the Peaky Blinders Tommy Shelby, looked cooler than ever in long black coat, brown trousers and a pair of smart shoes.

He completed the look with a white shirt, waistcoat and some cool shades.

Amber - whose alter-ego on the show is yet to revealed - also donned some pretty stylish 1930s attire.

The actress, 29, who has also starred in Black Mirror, Maigret's Dead Man and Strike, wore a tweed fitted jacket, matching midi skirt and green knitted jumper.

She completed the look with a small brown leather bag and some stunning pearl earrings.

At times the star was seen walking around with no shoes and a net over her hair, but she soon put on a stunning vintage hat to complete it.

The two were pictured in a deep conversation sitting whilst sitting in a canal located in the northern city.

And Cillian was seen being chivalrous helping his co-star get on and off the boat a number of times.

It comes after the programme had to halt filming when a crew member received a "false positive" Covid test result late last month.

Weeks later the reported that the show is being investigated for putting its crew at risk after reportedly allowing a member of staff to continue working on set after testing positive for the deadly bug.

Filming was paused due to “a false positive test for a member of the crew,” but other crew members said that filming continued for a few hours after the positive result.

The Guardian reports the delay in pausing filming left some crew members angry.

A spokesman for the show said: “Filming was stopped on Peaky Blinders because of a false positive test result for a member of the crew. 

“In line with protocol, this person took an NHS test and anyone who came into contact with them self-isolated – the safety of our team on Peaky Blinders is of paramount importance.

"The NHS test came back negative and filming resumed on Thursday.”

The cast had recently just returned from a break after former co-star Helen McCrory passed away from cancer aged 52.
