Sundays are for finally getting around to starting Peaky Blinders on your never-ending odyssey through all of the west’s most laddish crime dramas. World War 1’s just ended and every bloke’s got PTSD from the trenches. Tommy Shelby and his brothers have returned to Birmingham, which probably hasn’t helped their spirits. Cue lots of running around in flat caps and suits punching other blokes in flat caps and suits. Hours of fun so far, though I’m only a few episodes into the first series, so anyone who posts spoilers in the comments is getting slapped by a hat adorned with razor blades.<\/p>\n
