'Peaky Blinders' Season 5 preview: The show can totally do without these characters when it returns in the spring

Hoping Tommy will lead a better if not easier life in season 5, here are the characters the show can totally do away with
PUBLISHED FEB 22, 2019

BBC One's cult classic, 'Peaky Blinders', is set to return this summer for a Season 5, and there already is quite a lot of speculation over who will return and whom we won't see on the show anymore. Created by Steven Knight, the show saw an influx of characters over the course of the last four seasons, and every character's storyline was entwined with Thomas Shelby's (played by Cillian Murphy) plight to legitimize his family's business of stolen automobiles. 

As Season 4 saw Thomas (a.k.a Tommy) take the pedestal of the Communist Party as a Member of the Parliament, we all know the journey from being an underworld gangster to a high-profile government official wasn't quite the cakewalk for Tommy. He lost his wife, his youngest brother was murdered, he lost a considerable amount of profit in his business, but most of all there was always some fellow who either created hurdles for Tommy, or was absolutely useless for his family's affairs. Hoping Tommy will lead a better if not easier life in season 5, here are the characters the show can totally do away with without hesitation:
