Peaky Blinders - BBC

JP Liz V1

http://www.endemoldistribution.com/content/titles.aspx?productid=83090

An epic gangster family saga boasting a distinguished cast that includes Cillian Murphy (Inception, The Wind That Shakes The Barley, 28 Days Later), Sam Neill (The Tudors, The Piano, Jurassic Park), Helen McCrory (Hugo, Harry Potter, The Queen), Annabelle Wallis (Snow White and the Huntsman, The Tudors), Paul Anderson (The Firm), Iddo Goldberg (Secret Diary of a Call Girl) and Charlie Creed- Miles (Nil By Mouth, Wild Bill). Writer and dub poet Benjamin Zephaniah also joins the cast.

Created by Steven Knight (Dirty Pretty Things and Eastern Promises), the story begins in 1919 in the lawless slum neighbourhoods of post war Birmingham. Returning soldiers, newlyminted revolutionaries and criminal gangs all fight for survival in an industrial landscape gripped by economic upheaval. Guns smuggled home from the trenches find their way onto the streets and become lethal currency. As Churchill mobilises his Special Branch forces, illegal bookmakers make fortunes in speak-easy betting shops and traumatised infantrymen drink away their shell-shock in riotous ale houses.

There is still a gentler city at the fringes, where gypsies and canal boatmen deal horses and tell fortunes but sitting at the top of this industrial jungle are the extended Shelby family, whose many brothers and sisters, cousins and uncles, make up the fiercest gang of all, the ‘Peaky Blinders’. Named for their practise of sewing razor blades into the peaks of their caps, the Peaky Blinders make their money from off track betting, protection and robbery.

Trailer also can be view at the above link, looks good

Adrien Brody and Tom Hardy in for season 4 as filming kicks off in Liverpool this week

Why does the BBC add spoilers for the following episodes in all their shows?

I think most networks do it, on a lot of American shows you'll hear "Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode"

Tom Hardy and now Adrien Brody, both in supporting/walk on parts. The budget for this must be huge as I doubt either of those would do anything on the cheap.
Not that I`m complaining.

I don't think RTÉ have ever done it - do Channel 4 and ITV?

Yes, the Yanks do it a lot, and I know of a lot of times where they've completely ruined an upcoming episode by releasing clips important moments.

However, none of that explains why the BBC do it.

Love/Hate co stars Aidan Gillen and Charlie Murphy also joining

RTE2 is showing the second series on Wednesday nights at 11.15pm (starting this week).

The RTE Guide calls it a "new" series. Have RTE not shown the second series before now.

Season 4 trailer.

Last season had more sex than stories. Almost turned pointlessly pornographic.

Hope this season gets back to the level of the first 2 seasons, otherwise they should just knock it on the head.

Polly looks like she's about to be hanged in it.

Anyway can't be any worse than last season.

Season 4 starts on November 15th at 9pm on BBC 2.

Back tonight! Let’s hope it’s better than the messy last season.

LuckyGent88

Well I enjoyed that anyway.

Get him a sewing machine so he can sew his balls back together

Clareman

Good return, I'm going to have to watch it again though as I had to have the sound really low cause the kids were still awake, f3cking kids :pac:

Soulsun

Where can I get season 3?

De Bhál

Great start to the season as it usually takes a few episodes to pick up a bit.

Christmas day out on John's farm looked like the middle of summer. Trees in full leaf.
I'm being picky though it was a promising start and I was fairly apprehensive after last season.

Almost finished season 2. Can I skip season 3 and go straight to 4?

Unfortunately I was out and forgot to record it, is it repeated any night.

No, as it's a continuous story you wouldn't want to miss a whole season. Anyway you might like it.

johnpatrick81

Big improvement already, getting back to basics.

Charlie Murphy in her most non Charlie Murphy role yet

impressive!

It probably on player (BBC) but not sure if repeated

Very dramatic 7/10

DvB

Excellent start & brings it back on track after the muddled offering that was season 3. The dramatic ending leaves it nicely poised for next week.
The beauty of each season having just the 6 episodes means they have to get right into the thick of it & this episode did that superbly IMO.

marvin80

I thought the hanging scene at the start was complete bullsh*t - you knew they were going to be saved at the very last minute.

The rest of the episode was very good, especially the closing scene.

DrPhilG

I set this to record on Sky and it didn't happen. Now I've searched it on the planner and it's not to be found.

No repeats or on demand etc? The planner isn't even finding next week's episode.

I'm confused...

They'd said that someone dies so I thought

that maybe one of them got hung before they were released.

Thought it was a very very good episode.
The hour flew in, felt like 15 minutes. I've recorded it but will watch it again I found the accents not so clear this year.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Strong episode. I like the direction they've taken with the story.

However as the above poster mentioned I also found myself having a bit of trouble with the accents last night. Particularly Tommy, he tends to speak in a low mumble at times.

His irish accent came out last night and few times
