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.
