The House Of Guinness FIRST LOOK: James Norton looks every inch the villain as he is seen in character for the first time on the set of Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight's new series


James Norton got into character as he viciously kicked a co-star as he was seen filming The House Of Guinness for the first time on Monday in Liverpool.

The series from Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight will chronicle the extraordinary success of the family behind the famous Irish brewery, which was founded back in 1759 by Arthur Guinness. From Tara Browne, who died following a car crash in South Kensington, to scandalous affairs and divorces and the tragic drowning of Honor Uloth aged just 19 in 2020, the family seems to have been dealt a series of devastating blows. Creator Steven Knight commented: 'The Guinness dynasty is known the world over – wealth, poverty, power, influence, and great tragedy are all intertwined to create a rich tapestry of material to draw from.
