So did Johnny Dogs and Isiah.įan favourite Alfie Solomons (Tom Hardy) arrived for one last spot of scenery-chewing, announcing himself with “I smell the smell of roasting Irishmen”. Like a frontman introducing the band, writer Steven Knight ensured this legacy tour gave much-loved characters their moment in the spotlight. We last saw Duke, now with proper Peaky haircut, having instructions whispered in his ear by Tommy. Duke executed Billy and banished Finn from the family. Except Tommy had deduced that Billy Grade (Emmett J Scanlan) was the “black cat” traitor and that youngest brother Finn (Harry Kirton) was equally untrustworthy. He dispatched a crew led by Isiah Jesus (Daryl McCormack) to drink the wine cellar dry, dig up the bodies buried in the grounds and send them to “Mr Patches to put in the furnace” (this unseen figure is surely a spin-off show waiting to happen).īy candlelight, the “gardeners” arrived. Too many bad memories and a desire to burn down his ill-gotten gains meant Tommy wanted his country pile Arrow House emptied, razed to the ground and replaced by social housing. The fact that he was showing the young buck around the gang’s well-stocked armoury gave a clue what was to come. “Can you keep a secret?” Charlie asked Tommy’s illegitimate son, Erasmus “Duke” Shelby (Conrad Khan).

It’s always the quiet onesĪ proper Peaky now … Conrad Khan as Duke. Rest in peace, Poll.” Welcome back, Arthur. “Vengeance is for the Lord,” she gasped, to which he replied: “Not in Small Heath it ain’t. The Peakys released mustard gas into the mist-shrouded alley and emerged in gas masks to gun down their opponents.Īrthur gave McKee a gulp of filtered air to ensure she was conscious when he extracted payback for Aunt Polly. The coup de grâce was “an old keepsake from Passchendaele”. In a slowburn shootout reminiscent of Battleship Potemkin’s Odessa Steps sequence, complete with crying baby, the IRA trio played cat-and-mouse with Arthur, Charlie and Jeremiah Jesus (Benjamin Zephaniah). Charlie Strong (Ned Dennehy) acted as a decoy, luring Laura “Captain Swing” McKee (Charlene McKenna) and her soldiers into a trap. The South Boston mob dispatched the IRA to assassinate him at the Garrison. After a touching scene of brokenhearted brotherly love with Tommy, he had work to do.

We’ve missed you … Photograph: Robert Viglasky/BBC/Caryn Mandabach Productions Ltd.Īfter a series on the periphery and on heroin, big brother Arthur (Paul Anderson) got clean, aided by the return of his wife Linda (Kate Phillips). “Look after your mother and tell her I’m sorry,” said Tommy. Charles (Billy Jenkins) opted to go with her, pointing out “you’re more my mum than he is my dad”. Yet it was heartbreaking when Lizzie removed her rings, packed her bags and walked out. The final straw was sleeping with the enemy, Diana Mitford (Amber Anderson). He’d grown increasingly distant, not even telling her about his terminal tumour. Young Charles, remember, is the son of Tommy’s late first wife Grace. With their daughter Ruby dead, there’s an argument to say that Tommy didn’t need her any more. “You are cursed, Tommy,” wept his wife Lizzie (Natasha O’Keeffe). Getting a bullet through the eye for his trouble, Michael went to meet his maker and his mother.

Except it was the car behind, full of Boston mobsters, which blew to smithereens.Ĭue cheers from sofas as good ole Johnny Dogs (Packy Lee) popped up to tell Tommy: “I switched the ticker like you said, Tom.” Always one step ahead. When Michael made his excuses to leave the motor, there was a window-shattering kaboom. Well, his mother, Polly, (flashbacks of the mighty Helen McCrory) foresaw that Tommy wouldn’t be killed by a bullet. Michael placed a briefcase bomb in his car. Tommy flew (how new-fangled) to the smugglers’ haven of Miquelon Island to collect the $5m payment for his opium shipment. Now moustachioed Mikey (don’t call him that) put his plan into action. His intentions to kill his cousin had been stated all series. Which I cannot tell.” This barrelling episode began with vengeful Michael Gray (Finn Cole) finally getting out of jail, where he’d been simmering all series after being set up by Tommy (Cillian Murphy).
