I'm confused why the subtitles? Is it an american thing to not understand english spoken with an accent? Or was it the particular accent he just didn't like? That is so odd.
I love how excited he is about the women in this series lol
Couldnt watch without subtitles ? Fucking meatball
Maybe there was no Italian mob there…but there in Albanian mafia now.
Finally 🔥
Yes loved Tom Hardy in Taboo. Too bad it had a short run.
“Couldn’t get into it bc of the accent”!! WHAT ! 🤦🏼♀️
Finally wine in the uk
Sub titles???? It's the English language, not Japanese. That's hilarious that Americans use the English language and need subtitles. 😂
They were called peaky blinders because they had razor blades stitched in the peak of their caps and would take the cap off and slash the faces
Why you never mention jonny
The peaky's were running before the war, as you mentioned women are Prodomanet one of the scenes Polly mentioned having to run the show when the men went of fighting, for some who didn't know this knowledge the hats sort of nickname is a peaky, hence peaky blinders because of the Blades thew sew into the peakys, the real gang genuinely blinded people, the show depicts it think only once I believe 😂
It's so funny hearing Americans having to put subtitles on to understand people from my home town. I feel like they're oftentimes clearer in the show than they would be in real life, although it's extremely fucking obvious that none of the cast are real Brummies. At least they're not from the Black Country.
you couldnt get into it cos of the accents?? oh!! u couldnt understand them……thats what all us europeans think of u yanks. ur accents are like nails on a chalkboard
im from ireland and cillian is a national treasure. pronounce his name with a K.."killian" not with the C
It’s ooz that has the machine goons now & it’s them in the mood
Couldent get into the accent.. Watch with subtitles.. Americans never cease to amaze me.
But as a non native english speaker i get it, english is hard..
I REALLY want to hear you review season 4 of the series where the peaky blinders war with the mob and get your take hahah
"Watch with sub titles!" Only a F-cking Yank would need subtitles to watch a quality British TV Show! Lol
Helen passed from cancer if many didn’t know it’s why she wasn’t in the last season
With the subtitles it’s one of the best shows ever made. Up there with snowfall and breaking bad
The movie is so bad… Was so upset they did this and ruined how the series was for us
Did you actually watch season 4? That season is all about the Sicilian mafia coming to England to kill Tommy Shelby, The "Capo" Luca Changretta is played by New York actor Adrien Brody and he knocks it out of the park with his portrayal 👌
Cillian is killian. He hated filming because he hated the haircut.
Tom hardy steals every scene he’s in. A brilliant series
The subtitles are necedsary lol.
You didn’t watch Peaky Blinders because you’re nothing like Tommy Shelby. Let’s be honest you flipped you’re a clown. You’re a poser and you are literally just a slimeball 😊
Great show, the women really make it a rough watch at times but outside of that its great
