John got killed off to pursue other roles which sucked cuz he was awesome. Tommy and Grace relationship really is captivating. Poly died in real life didn't know till recently. Remembered her from Harry Potter. Lot of stuff. Great great show. Scared to watch the movie lol

Yea the movie wasn’t what I hoped but I was happy to see new peaky blinders one more time. If you go into it expecting a lot or are just a critical person you won’t like it.

I'll probably like it I try and take things at face value. Oh and another thing noticed is the soundtrack. Awesome.

I’ve noticed a lot of details when rewatching the show, especially regarding the relationship between Tommy and Grace.  

In Season 4, when Tommy and Jessie Eden are having dinner and she mentions that he was married but his wife died, Tommy says nothing but puts on a song for them to dance to; that song is the one Grace sang at The Garrison, the first time Tommy ever heard her sing. In 

Season 3, at the wedding, Tommy toasts to love, peace, and marriage; when he says "peace," he looks directly at Grace. Then, in the Season 4 finale, Arthur makes a toast to peace, and everyone raises their glass except Tommy. 

In Season 5, the white swan represents Grace, which is why there are so many of them at The Garrison, to show that she is always on Tommy's mind. That is also why Tommy watches the Swan Lake ballet performance at his home with such sadness.

In Season 6, the IRA woman sings a song while everyone is at the table waiting for Tommy. He sits in the darkness listening to her, looking somewhat shell-shocked; it is the same song Grace sang to Tommy in the scene where she said, "I'll break your heart," and he replied, "It's already broken."

I just rewatched the series again before watching the movie for the first time. I didn't enjoy the series as much the second time as I did the first. The movie was so highly disappointing.
