Peaky Blinders season 6 finale explained and how it sets up the movie

The final ever episode of Peaky Blinders aired last night but fans are dying for more of Tommy Shelby.

After a series of twists including Cillian Murphy's character being diagnosed with a terminal illness, shocking family revelations and more violence than you can shake a fist at, Peaky Blinders went out with a bang. Earlier in the season, Tommy was diagnosed with a terminal tuberculoma and in light of this, tied up all of his loose ends with his family and setting his illegitimate son up as his successor.

Following a trail of revelations, Tommy found out his diagnosis was a ruse, setting the show's final moments in place. Whilst viewers originally thought his son Arthur would carry his legacy forward, it appears this won't be the last time we see Tommy.
