Default "Peaky Blinders" Season 5

Since I recall a few threads about this on occasion of earlier seasons, and several members were watching, just a heads-up if you missed it:

"Peaky Blinders", the British 1920s gangster series which a friend of mine has called "Downton Abbey's Evil Twin", had its 5th season released on Netflix last week.

I just found out and have only watched the first episode, but it appears to keep up the dark standards of previous seasons. So don't expect comic relief

If you're not familiar with it, you might give the earlier seasons a try, especially if you like old British revolvers:

Season 5 made us quit the series. It was heading downhill in our opinion and this confirmed it.

Couldn't get through the first episode. Sad...since it used to be a pretty decent show. Too much style and not enough substance.

Just our opinion. Others may feel differently.

I watched all six episodes of season five. It becomes interesting. Lots of historical tidbits thrown in as well.
