'Peaky Blinders' Season 5: Five times Tom Hardy's Alfie Solomons slayed it on the show

A fan-favorite character, Alfie was killed at the end of season 4 by Thomas and since then fans have been heartbroken over the character's fate in the show
UPDATED FEB 27, 2019

'Peaky Blinders' is set for another season premiere in 2019 and the show will not see the return of actor Tom Hardy as Jewish gang leader Alfie Solomons. The show, which is set in the aftermath of World War I, is inspired by the real-life criminal gangster of the same name. The show stars Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby Jr and Helen McCrory as Polly among others. One of the fan-favorite characters, Alfie, was killed at the end of season 4 by Thomas and since then fans have been heartbroken over the character's fate in the show. Many had hoped that Solomons would return in some form in the upcoming season, but show creator Steven Knight recently confirmed to Radiotimes that 'Peaky Blinders' will move forward without Alfie.
