Peaky Blinders: Series 1-5 Episode Guide (English Edition)

In the year of Our Lord 1929, who can stop Thomas Shelby MP, OBE, KRO? Could it be his lackwit coked up cousin Michael, pissing the family fortune up the wall in Wall Street? Or perhaps his knuckle dragging brother Arthur slicing up love rivals like O.J. Simpson? Maybe it’s his new seig heiling buddy Sir Oswald Mosley, mobilising a dark army of far right goons to take over the country. It may even be razor gang boss Mad Dog Jimmy McCavern, crucifying plebs like the Roman Empire and murdering accents like Ocean’s Eleven-era Don Cheadle.

Most likely of all though it is Tommy himself who will be his downfall. Because this depressed bitch contemplates popping his own cork more than a Nick Drake fan on Suicide Sunday after a particularly messy breakup. Struggling manfully to get his crime family back on the rails, Tommy must battle fascists, sectarian jocks, Chinese pimps, paedo judges and the inane dribblings of his shit dead wife Grace. All the threads are brought together in a stunning series that left viewers unanimously asking “why is Polly still a thing?”

TV critic James Donaghy guides you through the first five series – 30 episodes of heartbreak, bloodshed, mutilation and questionable lifestyle choices from the Birmingham gang who just don’t know how to take no for an answer. Every killing, doublecross and Tommy masterplan is recapped and analysed here for your reading pleasure.
