'Peaky Blinders': Top 3 times Thomas cold-bloodedly murdered for the Shelby family
He never murders anyone for his own entertainment but he kills in order to let the rest of the Shelbys lead a peaceful life
BBC One's 'Peaky Blinders' is well known for its explicit content and one of the many factors which have contributed largely towards attracting a cult-like fan-following is the show's violence. Steven Knight has created the show based on the memories of his grandparents' youth, as they were part of the Peaky Blinders, notoriously known for slashing their enemies' eyes with blades.
While this signature move is carried out by almost every member of the gang on the show, their leader Thomas Shelby (Cillian Murphy) takes things a step ahead when he begins to act like a hired assassin, unlike the other Peaky Blinders.
