Two and a half years have passed since we last watched the Peaky Blinders blackmail, racketeer and murder their way to respectability in interwar England and now they’re back - albeit at their weakest ever.
The last episode of series five saw an assassination on fascist leader Oswald Mosley foiled, multiple Blinders taken out in the fray, and Tommy and Arthur beating a hasty retreat back to the house to regroup. Mad with rage, Tommy puts a pistol to his head to end it all.
