Actor pleaded guilty to drug possession

Prosecutor Kevin Kendridge said Anderson was caught with illegal substances on Boxing Day. Police were called to a north London pub after a customer smelled crack fumes coming from a toilet the actor had just left. He was taken to a police station where they found crack cocaine, a packet of brown powder suspected to be amphetamines, diazepam and pregabalin.

Anderson pleaded guilty at Highbury Corner Magistrates Court in London on January 25 to four counts: possession of Class A crack cocaine, Class B amphetamines and two Class C prescription substances. The actor’s lawyer told the court: “You will know the defendant from a very intense role he recently played in a television show. He is often recognized and does his best to please the fans of the show by stepping into the role.”

“Peaky Blinders” was canceled in 2022 after six seasons. However, creator Steven Knight revealed in December that filming for the theatrical version of the series would begin this year.
