The introductory fascist speech gets your blood boiling, but it really starts to get going after the evidence explodes. Smuggled sacks of flour, the visit to the looney bind and the fantastic scene with dad. And the reference to Mr. Solomons? Is there a flashback in store for us? Peaky Blinders on best form. ()
Great fascist feeling (and phenomenal speech) and traditionally excellent costumes and production design in a story where you gradually lose any emotional connection to almost all the characters, including the main one. So we're just waiting to see who's gonna get beaten up or whacked. ()
One thing I love about this series is the number of episodes. With just six per season, there's no room for filler, keeping the story tight and engaging. This episode was no exception — it kept me hooked throughout, with no dull moments, and even threw in a local Hitler for good measure. ()
