I was stunned the first time I saw her in Peaky Blinders. I just was sad when she got a nose job during filming, because she looked more unique before :)
Favourite part is when Arthur pulls his pants down in front of the princess and says “ _Here you go ladies, made in fookin Birmingham_ “ and you see John piss himself laughing next to him.
I’m going to have to *respectfully* disagree, I’m not to much of a fan of Cillian’s cut, maybe it’s because I had a crush on him when I first saw him in a movie where his hair was a little longer. 🤷🏽♀️
Growing up in a working class family in Birmingham, in the 60's, my Grandfather told me many stories about the Peaky Blinders, but I never thought to see a tv series. And such a great one. Yes, its fictionalised and you could get too analytical about what they got wrong, but it's a wonderful show.
@@hackedaccount1523 I will give you a personal story. There is a huge square building in Birmingham called Fort Dunlop. It was originally used to manufacture Dunlop tyres. My grandfather worked there and so did a man called Bert Kirby, who was a real hard case with a wicked reputation and a member of the Peaky Blinders. The original Peaky blinders had been a youth gang before the Great War but they still existed in men who came back from France, although not as influential or powerful as portrayed in the series. In 1923 Bert and my grandfather had some sort of falling out and the animosity went on for some time, until Bert threatened to bring the Peaky blinders down on my Grandfather's family. My grandfather received a visit from the gang and was told he had to fight. He acceded but got an agreement that if he won a fair fight, it would all be over and done. They fought on the roof of the fort, supposedly for half an hour, until neither of them could stand and both were taken to hospital. My grandfather received the assurance that the feud was done. In 1980, some 57 years later, I was invited to a house party by a girl I worked with. She was a Kirby but the name didn't immediately ring any bells for me.. When the people at the party learned my name they told the story of "the only man who ever stopped our Bert". I told them I knew the story and it was my grandfather and they treated me like royalty and one of the family. There are other stories but this is the only one I know to be true and not just legends.
It’s always so strange to be so obsessed with fictional characters and then see the actors behaving as themselves, I get all conflicted on the inside 😂
Its phenomenal how these guys are such clean cut gentlemen who transform into these hardcore gangsters. That takes serious talent, let alone the taking on a mixture of accents. This to me is one of the greatest series ever. Can't wait for season 6. Much respect to all the actors and actresses.
It's funny how girls from Top Model are always being judged for crying during their makeovers, and now, here we are, watching grown man doing the same 😆
Ever since I started watching this show during lockdown (its only been a few days I discovered it on netflix and am binge watching back to back eps) I walk around the house with a smug look on my face while repeating in my head: We're the peaky fookin ble'indurs, eh! 😄 Absolutely love the show. And who knew Polly had such comedic timing in real life. She's great!
I JUST started watching this series & it is EVERYTHING. I really hope Alfie or the older bro don’t die bc they’re my fave characters. Which prob mean they will.
I'm embarrassed to admit that I completely missed Peaky Blinders the first time around, but I am currently binging the five series (just started series 4). I am glad I saw this video to remind myself that these are extremely talented and believable actors, and not to hate some of them because of the people they play... but you cant help it when you are sucked in to the stories, which are so beautifully written. Incredible show very powerful, they have done more to make the Brummy accent cool than anyone could have thought possible lol
I did too i only found out cause im obsessed with a webtoon called purple hyacinth which has a similar vibe and same time period kind of thing about a strong assassin for criminal organization and a cop who can hear lies and everytime i looked up pictures on pinterest for it peaky blinders kept showing up for me i guess because of the looks and time period they are both in and i was like i should check this out i love stuff like this and i definitely did and did not regret it
I’m addicted to this show and I love the peaky haircut! I don’t know why they hate it so much. It looks good on all of them but on Cillian, it hits different 😍
It's so lovely to see some of the actors be so excited about their work and show that they are that excited as excited as the fans. They're not ashamed of being like emotional happy joyful about the fans and their work. All of it. It makes the fans I think feel less self-conscious about being fans. If you think the cast of the show think you're being ridiculous by being invested in their characters I think you're less likely to want to invest in their characters, in the end. Bravo to them all cast and crew.
Peaky blinders so so amazing. Love all the cast in their own ways but especially love the complexity of Arthur well done Paul your amazing. Thank you guys xxx 💝
I just started watching this show and really do love it so so much. It has everything: great acting, sets and charismatic relationships that you can't wait to watch unfolding rooting for this person or that cause.
Cillian’s haircut is the best ever, not only the best on the show, it is the best ever, cillian looks extra hot with that haircut, but he is absolutely the perfection
Honestly when I first watched the show I was a little bit weirder out by the show. Then I started to get used to it. I’m glad they did it. It’s very unique
Maybe you're gay, Just kidding.... Or not lol I'm straight and I have no problem in say he's very atracctive as Tommy, I kinda understand why women like so much this gangsta style. Nowadays he's one of my inspirations.

Back in Birmingham in the days Peaky Blinders was set the air was that filthy you kept everything under you're cap, the rest was shaved off to save it being covered in soot. For some hairdresser in the present to take any credit is a bit rich, it was born out of environmental necessity.
It's really interesting, thanks for sharing! I remember seeing some interviews with the hair and makeup departament of the show in which they talk about the inspiration behind the looks. So I'm not entirely sure if they claim the rights to those haircuts. I need to watch the interviews again if I find them 😊
Pat Gallagher I think it also had to do with protection against lice? I vaguely remember Cillian mentioning that in an interview but I’m not 100% sure.
@@jennmelo87 lice nowadays shouldn't matter, studies shown testosterone is a natural repellent to lice. I understand then not knowing back in the day but its pretty common to know these days
I believe the soldiers in WW1 started to sport that style, particularly after 1916 amongst the mass volunteer Kitchener armies (the working classes who volunteered en mass in 1914). It was short back and sides to meet army regulations, since an officer would only see the short cut under the helmet or cap but soldiers would start growing it longer on top to give a bit of individuality back to oneself. Even a bit of protest against regulations. That ties in to the Peaky Blinders being WWI veterans. A similar thing happen in the Second World War, as it dragged on, especially amongst German troops and to a degree British troops. You look at some of the images of German troops from about 1944 and 1945 and they had proper long hair. Again, a bit of a protest thing...together with a lack of chance to go for a hair cut!

he actually has a lot of mental troubles too in real life

I know! It looks SO good on him 🔥😊

Ijust did it last sunday
His natural haircut fits him better tbh

And on his wedding day

😊🔥😊
😂
I finished the whole series and I can't really recall if I've ever seen someone drink water in this show
Me neither, haha 🥃🥃🥃😊😊😊
I've seen them drink tea but never water. The closest to water was when the irish guy drank some cordial. I think that was squash back in those days.
Actually, I don't think Thommas has ever even eaten in the show. That may be something to think about.
Probably because drinking water wouldn't fit with the theme of the show but also historically back then whiskey was safer than drinking water
@@geralt8394 That's actually a very good point:)

True! 😊
Arthur's haircut is the best one.
👍😊
Amogh Thorave tommy...
I think it looks best but I’m not quite bold enough to wear it.
I wore it and you need to have a certain type of hair and face didn’t suit me at all
For men to pull those styles off, you need razor sharp cheekbones and jawline like Cillian and even Paul. Otherwise, good luck.
