Shes still off her head though, "I can see dead people "
Love the series but if Tommy knew they planned to hit him and that was his trap then why wasn't everyone else ready to blast them as soon as they got out of the cars in the block of flats, it would have actually made a great final episode.

Spoiler

perhaps he didn't want anyone else involved, he didn't want to risk losing anyone close to him? Also interesting development towards the end of the episode with the whole communist revolution

[Flaccid Bobby Fowler]

just finished season 2. It's pretty fucking good isnt it! It's up there with the best series I've ever watched.

[Ziltoid]

Add another ton onto your bill for being a c*nt, mate.

That tickled me 

And another ton as Thomas is a good friend of mine

Still laughing about this.

Loving Adrien Brody in this series. Proper actor, and probably one of my favourites. Looking forward to tonight.

Season 4 is released on Netflix over here tomorrow, been re-watching all three seasons in anticipation.

One of many favorite moments:

Season 3 Episode 1, when Tommy has all the boys in the kitchen, screaming at them about how to behave at the wedding.

Going round one by one, shaking his finger and yelling "no fighting."

Comes to Arthur, who has a mouthful of food and merely raises both hands in innocent reply and acknowledgement...

[oldfordie]

The scene were Tom Hardy is winding up Arthur on becoming religious takes some beating.
right in his face telling him "Hows does that work considering your line of work mate.oh come on mate. it's fanciful innit mate." on and on winding him up. Arthur trembling with rage clutching a glass. superb.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Hard to remember a better 20 minutes of tele this year.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Absolutely brilliant episode.

[Igor Tripod Biscan]

Nice lead into the next series (not season) - Glad Bad Brando died

[So… Howard Philips]

Tommy Shelby a Labour MP.

Does Trada approve?

[oldfordie]

Brilliant end to the series.

Spoiler

Fuming when poor Arfur got bumped off, glad to see him make a full recovery, poor Changretta got it worked up him good style, Tommys a Labour MP in league with Churchill, business partner Al Capone, not long before the series is called, Yes Prime minister.

Holy shit fuck balls what an episode

does anyone know or have an idea what ''illness' Tom has that Polly was sugesting

Don't think I can add anything to those two comments - one of the best shows on television

I assumed she just meant the PTSD from the war. He only seems to have episodes when he is calm and relaxed. So needs constant battle to keep him occupied and it at bay. He looked miserable when Albert was making a toast to "peace".

Just what I assumed tho, could be wrong.

Yes, I was thinking that. Polly mentioned the drink and he went along with it just to shut her up so it wasn't the drink, probably been living off Adrenalin while the vendettas being going on. he may have had a breakdown when peace came.

[Flaccid Bobby Fowler]

Have absolutely no clue what going on in Season three. Literally haven't a breeze. Im up to episode 4. Someone help me understand what's going on, plot wise, because its the weakest season for me so far and going off on a mad tangent to whats gone before.

[Phil M]

Brilliant.

Spoiler

When Arthur was lying prone and Tommy wasn't trying to resuscitate him I was saying 'Oh ffs he's still bloody warm, you're army trained (etc) at least try and save your brother, this is really poor...'

So was thrilled with how the story materialised.

said exactly the same thing to the missus lastnight..still not sure what season three was about.

[BER]

Assumed they were wrapping it up after this season, just had that stale feeling about it all this season.

[S.Red please]

Assumed they were wrapping it up after this season, just had that stale feeling about it all this season.

Personally thought they rejuvenated it this season after a stale 3rd season that dragged. Every episode this year I was there 9pm eyes firmly fixed to the tele for the whole hour. Can't wait for the next one.

Some strong stories about the next series being the last series.

You may want to put some spoiler tags mate

Spoiler

The priest is connected to the IRA, remember the issue back in series 1 and 2, when Tom had the stolen guns, and the members of the IRA approached him and tried to get him to give it to them? One of them he killed and so the priest working for the IRA is there to use Tom to get him to do whatever they need him to do. That's the basic gist of it

Couldn't disagree more with this, really. I thought this season was great. Probably not quite up there with the first (which was the pinnacle), but great television none-the-less, and probably the best around right now.

Can't wait for season five.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Fucking hell series/season 5 wont be out until Spring of 2019!!!!!! Fackkkkkk

I agree, but I wouldn't have blamed the writers for wrapping it up this series.

[jillcwhomever]

I was disappointed with the last series ending, but I thought this was much better. I watched five episodes on the bounce and really enjoyed it. So glad Arthur wasn't dead, great to see him at the end. Stinks we have to wait until 2019 for that and GOT though.

The PFB have firmly fixed quite a few pair of eyes in their time.

Only came into this at the start of Series 4 and what a treat I've missed.

On the plus side I'm now watching the first 3 series and enjoying every minute.

Such a great script, excellent actors in every scene and so many have their characters examined for us.

The soundtrack bites seemed to get better with every series as well.

I loved Boardwalk Empire but this tops it for me. Roll on the next series and some new opponents out to get them.

[markedasred]

the BBC have started an obsessed with Peaky Blinders podcast. That structure of show suggests that the new series is about to drop, in the next few weeks or so, based on the Line of Duty one.

edit, just had a listen and it's decent, as the main writer is the guest.

[jillcwhomever]

They are saying the new series starts on Sunday August the 25th at 9pm on BBC1. Need to get the recorder on.

[Livbes]

Binged the lot over the last couple of weeks. Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to get round to it but I hate waiting so I’m kind of glad with series 5 starting later this month.

Excellent TV.

[Titi Camara]

Didn't realise we were so close to the new season, might need a wee catch up

We started our binge last night,it's one of only a handful of programs that I look forward too and get excited about.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Can't believe it's been 2 years!

[WhereAngelsPlay]

Can't believe it's been 2 years!

We're not even close to it but I'm already gutted that the story is coming to an end.

Looking forward to seeing how he handles the blackshirts.
