Dark and raw, aesthetically pleasing. Good writing with a fantastic Stephen Graham.

Whomever did the music/score for this series should never be let near a production again.

Overall, it was more like a stage play than a television series. It felt like it was a few choreographed lamppost swings away from being a west end musical.

A couple of good performances can't save this Disney-esque experience

It is just not very good or compelling. It also doesn’t help that it’s been marketed as Peaky Blinder eske show, but lacks all the edge and polish. It is just a period drama.

Also, the music score is awful.

If its half as good as peaky blinders then its gonna be a cracking show
