Late arrival to the Peaky Blinders party

[EvenPhilip]

Finally got round to watching this, quite enjoying so far although I struggled with the accents initially.
However Tom Hardy who I usually like is driving me mad, he seems so hammy and channelling his Bronson character mated with the Krays a bit too much.
Does he get better?

Loving the spoilers folks.

oops - thought this was a general peaky blinders discussion thread. Maybe ask mn to edit the title to say no spoilers.

I think that horse may have bolted
I'll not return until I'm a bit further in perhaps.

Tommy’s married Lizzie because they have ruby and he’s now an MP . Thinking back , was it Lizzie that almost married John ? Can’t wait for tonight’s

An MP married to an ex prostitute.

Yes Lizzie almost married John until Thomas stopped it.

Lizzie and Linda are going to annoy me a lot this series.

how can it be a spoiler? the show has aired. I thought a spoiler was when it was something that hadn't aired??

CAN WE STOP WITH SPOILERS PLEASE ?

That was my understanding too Samcro but the PP shouted so . . .

They're not spoilers when it's already been on

Samcro think some people on the thread are a few series behind. If you aren't up to date I'm not sure how you avoid spoilers on an online thread when you are all at different stages . Even if you set up a no spoiler thread I'm not sure what you can discuss when none of you are at the same stage .
Can this be the thread for the current series airing on bbc now?

if I am behind on something, i just hide the thread untill I catch up.
I like Lizzie, I couldn't stand Grace.
now arthurs wife is annoying.

I loathed Grace. I just think Lizzie wants more from Thomas than he will ever give her.

Didn't Lizzie have other kids ? Where are they ?

I didn't think Lizzie had other children.

When she was going to marry John there was some mention of them

I think they were nephews/siblings - it was John who had 4 children.

wasn't john going to marry her so she could be mum to his kids

Yeap Samcro. I re-watched all the previous seasons in the past two weeks

Yes - re Lizzie. That was the only downer for me in the finale of the last series. I was all buoyed up with the election and a Dylan cover on the soundtrack, then Lizzie appeared and the camera panned to Jess(?) in the crowd of supporters. She was a real person, btw, well-known in Birmingham for her Trade Union activism.

I think TS has a connection with Lizzie as an old pal and a debt, because he stopped John marrying her. But I don't think the relationship will last.

Agree @Thymeout he will bin her off.
I want him to be with May there chemistry on scream is something else

I loved Tommy and May. I’d love for them to end up together. Lizzie has always annoyed me.

I wonder how much longer Linda is going to last if she keeps shooting her mouth off at Tommy?

Also a late arrival. Currently binge watching with dh (a fan from the off) to get up to speed for the latest series.

@Yaflamingalah not long ha think she was pushing it in their meeting she doesnt fit in with their family

Tommy and May would be perfect.

Lizzie will drive Tommy away with all her 'oooh you told Polly but not me' rubbish.

Umm Lizzie, Polly was running the business whilst you were doing another type of business.

Fuck I love Cilian Murphy
