KIERAN TIERNEY has explained how THAT Peaky Blinders viral video came about a few months back with actor and Celtic fan Paul Anderson.

The video showed Paul in full Peaky Blinders character with a Celtic shirt and he declares Glasgow Celtic are number one by order of the Peaky Blinders.

The show is massive and when Kieran posted the video it went nuts. It has now been watched over 1.7million times just on his feed alone.

Taking part in a Q&A for the Celtic View, Kieran divulged some more information about how it all came about and it started with UFC fighter Conor McGregor.

“Paul Anderson from Peaky Blinders is a Celtic fan. The video on Twiter came about after I gave Conor McGregor one of my shirts and he’d put it on his Instagram.” Tierney told the Celtic View.

“Paul messaged me saying that he’d love a shirt and he’d be grateful if I could send him one, so I did.

“He then sent that video, which I didn’t expect at all, I hadn’t asked for it – It was brilliant”

“Will I ever be an extra on Peaky Blinders? – Watch This space.”

Kieran has always been accommodating to fans whenever he can be and has a real connection with them.

It was great to see such a high profile actor sport a Celtic jersey proudly and even doing it in character.

Celtic have a long list of talented celebrity fans and Paul is right up there now after that video!
