In the bleak midwinter, amongst horse manure and backhanded business deals, lies the lawless town of Small Heath, Birmingham. Thomas Shelby and his gang of razorblade-wielding peaked-cap-wearing gentlemen, take on all manner of dastardly deeds as he strives to climb the political ladder; proving to be a compelling watch.

    Love me some Peaky! Great review, I love that nod to the poem/Christmas Carol as well 😁

  • I've heard a lot of good things about this show! Loved your review!

    I found little in the shorts to draw me into the show, but you are the second person in 3 days to recommend it. I may have to watch an episode and see how I feel afterwards. An effective use of the 50 word limit 😀

    I watched an episode or two, but didn't stick with it. I don't really remember why. You nailed what I know of the plot!

    Literally only watch it for the outfits and newsboy hats
