We have also previously enjoyed first-look images, which introduced A Thousand Blows' main characters, including Stephen Graham as Sugar Goodson, described as a seasoned and deadly boxer.
Small Axe's Malachi Kirby, who will play a new opponent of Sugar's called Hezekiah Moscow, was also seen, along with the character of Mary Carr (The Crown's Erin Doherty), leader of a notorious all-female London gang called The Forty Elephants.

Set in the brutal world of the East End of London in the 1880s, A Thousand Blows centres on Hezekiah Moscow and Alec Munroe, two best friends from Jamaica, as they find themselves thrust into the bare-knuckle boxing scene.
The synopsis adds that "the menacing and self-declared emperor of the East End boxing world, Sugar Goodson, determines to destroy Hezekiah whose ambitions to fight in the West End threaten everything he has built..."
Ashley Walters is also on board as one of the directors, alongside Nick Murphy (who previously worked with Graham and Knight on the BBC's 2019 adaptation of A Christmas Carol), Coky Giedroyc (Save Me) and Tinge Krishnan.
