It's not a bad watch, Cillian Murphy is good, but Tom Hardy steals every scene he is in.

Total dirge this series. I am also so done with the silly dramatic set piece walks. Seriously, seriously lost its way.

Have to agree with the above comments, I’ve found this series very boring so far.

It really isn't what it was is it?

They could develop the Moseley storyline a bit more, perhaps they will, but the last episode was Tommy wandering around a mountain while his daughter died of TB. And Arthur behaving like a child. What happened to his ruthless streak?

This isn't Peaky Blinders, it's more Downton Abbey with Brummies.

Slow one but I liked the scene with Arthur and Hayden, knew how to get under his skin.

Bonus use of Idles 'killing with kindness' too!

I'll stick with it but its not grabbing me just yet.

It's as if the have toned down the violence and raised the PC.

I assumed it must have been when some noise and random shouting “music” came on wink

Agreed it’s earned my loyalty but my god we need some fighting / shooting / Tom Hardy and quick

Not enjoying it at all so far.

Another big grip is the sound levels as you have to crank up the volume to hear some scenes then next scene you get deafened.

I thought the bit with Arthur was brilliant, maybe a turning point in the series?

Nah, I prefer the old Arthur that would have had a decent ruck and left blood everywhere. That's what Peaky Blinders is all about. Not Arthur being a suddenly woke druggie.

Is there any way of fixing that? A sound setting maybe?
