Peaky Blinders

They're so macho. And that includes the women.

Was anyone ever so self-assured and hard-faced and ready with the verbals as all these people are?  In real life never. In art always- ever since Achilles and Agamemnon traded sulks on the plains of windy Troy. 

But it's fun, innit! Who knew life in Brummagen was so baroque!

That's neat.

I'm a great believer in synchronicity.

Do you happen to know which house they're using as Tommy's stately home?

'Fraid not.
