With Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight's newest period piece, House of Guinness, set to hit screens this Thursday, September 25th, Netflix is sharing a sneak peek at the epic story inspired by one of Europe's most famous and enduring dynasties – the Guinness Family. Set in 19th-century Dublin and New York, the series begins immediately after the death of Sir Benjamin Guinness, the man responsible for the extraordinary success of the Guinness brewery, and the far-reaching impact of his will on the fate of his four adult children, Arthur (Anthony Boyle), Edward (Louis Partridge), Anne (Emily Fairn), and Ben (Fionn O'Shea), as well as on a group of Dublin characters who work and interact with the phenomenon that is Guinness. In the clip below, the family prepares for their father's funeral – and begins preparing for what the future might hold.
