[TV] Peaky Blinders

Why hasn’t this thread been bounced yet?


Solid start to season 6.

A sober Tommy, quoting William Blake.

A translation of the Romany words spoken by Tommy’s daughter ( who’s name escapes me) is

“A small child with a Devils heart”

Everyone who wears one of those hats looks like a massive BELLEND.

Oi!!
My Grandad wore one for about 80 years.

Brilliant series - loved being back in his world. It was Ruby I think

Heads up: last ever episode tonight

Heads up: last ever episode tonight

Me and Mrs Wz have just watched the first 2 episodes of series 1 this week and quite enjoyed them.

Down with the kids

First two series were great, fun to watch and dealing with some rare historical stuff the Beeb usually hates to touch, bravo. Then series 3-4 started to get very sketchy on the credibility front but still fun to watch. Since then, it's been a bit laboured and going through the motions. But I'll finish it as I've invested so much time in it, although obviously with the film we won't get any closure alas tonight, it's a cash cow for the production company and won't be given a dignified burial, gypsy or otherwise

Indeed was a very clever programme but became a cash cow. Its also gone rather over the top ( excuse WW1pun ) over the Moseley Black Shirt stuff and the nutty American Nelson ( Always handy to have an American character for US sales ). Last weeks scene round the dinner table where almost everyone had shagged everyone else at one point or other some time was seriously weird ....Poor old Arthur is a shadow of his former self and they are rapidly running out of World Class Shelby's to carry the family business.... Curly and Jonny Dogs are about all that's left.

Its a bit like Killing Eve, find something good, different or breakthrough and milk it to death for global sales....

Yeh. I assume Nelson is meant to be Joe Kennedy but even they baulked at using his real name, so we have a total mish-mash of totally made up characters like Tommy, real figures like Mosely and real figures they had to rename like Nelson otherwise some yanks might have got uppity about it

Yes, Nelson was meant to be Joe Kennedy and he certainly wasn't a Nazi in real life..so things all got a bit mixed up. Just seen the ending , reasonably all ties up fairly neatley...could have done with Nelson, Gina and Mitford meeting stickies though.

Pretty much binged-watched from S1 over the last 2-3 weeks, happily coinciding with the end tonight. Decent entertainment, although thought the earlier series were better and less contrived. In any event, better than Strictly or whatever other shite Mrs D would have been watching in the other room

Specialist questions round tonight in Mastermind for those in need of a light distraction.

How well do YOU know Tommy and the Boys?

 

[Miximate]

I got 5 but wasn’t quick enough. That was some knowledge!
