To think Peaky Blinders is shite but Cillian Murphy is a God

Late to the Peaky Blinders party but everyone raves about it.

It’s shite, slow and could be over in half the time.

But the music is good and Cillian Murphy is mesmerising.

How can a man be that attractive?

I think he's a bit feminine looking but YABU as Peaky Blinders is brilliant.

Cheeserton · 18/08/2019 21:57

YABVVU. It's definitely not shite.

Babooshkar · 18/08/2019 21:58

I HATE the constant OTT music that bakers out randomly all the time!

Cillian Murphy is a god though 😜

Moondancer73 · 18/08/2019 21:58

Shite? How long did you watch? It's most certainly not shite

Babooshkar · 18/08/2019 21:59

blares 🤪

MrsZlatan · 18/08/2019 21:59

He is absolutely beautiful 🥰

Bearbehind · 18/08/2019 21:59

The general premise is ok but is just so fucking slow.

And don’t start me on Polly’s accent - it’s set in Birmingham not
Liverpool!

Love the soundtrack. Effortlessly cool and moody. Perfectly chosen for the series I think.

And by god tommy Shelby 😍😍😍

I also love Ada she's so stylish

Milicentbystander72 · 18/08/2019 22:01

I was also late to the Peaky Blinders Party.

It's most definitely NOT shite. Yabvvvvvvu

I went to see him in a play in a tiny theatre a couple of years ago. 2 hours just staring at him amazing eyes.
He jumped in to the audience at one stage and got in DHs face. I was a bit jealous.

But actually YABU because I love Peaky Blinders

LauraKsWhiteCoat · 18/08/2019 22:02

The accents are appalling. But if you look past that... Cilian Murphy is exquisitely beautiful so he makes up for it.

I also love Ada and her style. She's ace.

New series on Sunday!!!!!

user1497997754 · 18/08/2019 22:05

Love everything about it x

That’s my point - the accents are dreadful, the story is beyond slow, yet I’m still watching just to see him.

Cillian is BEAUTIFUL but I can't bring myself to watch it

BananasAreTheSourceOfEvil · 18/08/2019 22:13

Sorry to compound it, but he's actually the loveliest chap to work with. My mother works on film crews and she was on Breakfast on Pluto with him. Said he was not only gorgeous but lovely.

Damn you, Cillian.

Bezalelle · 18/08/2019 22:20

I would have sex with literally every one of the (adult!) characters in PB.

AlrightBabby · 18/08/2019 22:23

Oh my god the accents are dire, I'm from round those parts (ish) and they are hilarious! But that being said, Cillian Murphy with a side order of Tom Hardy is worth the watch 😍

StoneofDestiny · 18/08/2019 22:49

Love the programme - couldn't care less about the accents.

Cassilis · 18/08/2019 22:50

It looks shite and I agree CM is fab.

TheVanguardSix · 18/08/2019 22:55

Haters gonna hate. Nothing can kill my love for Peaky Blinders.

cheeseislife8 · 18/08/2019 22:56

I just don't see it with Cilian Murphy... the show is fab though!

Blutopia · 18/08/2019 22:58

We are just rewatching the first few series in readiness for the new one. I have to keep reminding myself that the way Cillian Murphy OMG that bone structure just take me right here right now over this dining table gratuitously clears his throat when delivering some lines is profoundly irritating.

It doesn't need clearing, it's for dramatic effect but I see through you, you strange, beautiful man.

ScrambledSmegs · 18/08/2019 22:59

I saw him in an Indian restaurant. He's even more beautiful in the flesh - but kind of otherworldly. Even when eating curry.

Isittheend · 18/08/2019 23:03

YABU.
I have only just discovered the joys of PB and Cillian Murphy is stunningly beautiful.

Squashpocket · 18/08/2019 23:07

Being from the midlands and having Irish family, the accents made me want to die a little. Couldn't make it through the first episode.
