Peaky Blinders - Season 1 Edit

A black star? What does that mean?

A black star? What does that mean?

A certain purpose.

A connection with what, Sergeant?

A cut throat gangster with a secretary.

A few cuts and bruises.

A few months ago a man named Ryan came to this place with

A girl who needs a husband. A man who needs a wife.

A licence.

A lot of money.

A man who cuts off ears and cuts out tongues.

A Mr William Kimber has been found dead with a gunshot wound.

A precise man, your brother.

A residue of sympathy.

A ship sails Friday. Meet me at the boxing ring.

A surprise? Where is she?

A terrible consequence has been avoided.

A third, a third, a third.

A toast, to Shelby Limited!

A toast...

A truly loyal servant of the crown.

A very important detail about my reasons for employing you.

A view to buying some goods from you.

A week after the robbery there was a burial at St Andrews' churchyard.

A whisky and a smoke.

A woman, sir. I was wondering if there was a connection.

A woman.

Aargh!

According to the rules,

Actually, tea it is.

Ada and Freddie Thorne were married today.

ADA SCREAMS

Ada, can you do my back?

Ada, move away.

Ada, that's enough. And now he won't even let me have a fucking dance!

Ada, think of the little one.

Ada, wake up.

Ada, what the hell?

Ada!

Ada! Freddie!

Ada! Right, boys, let's wet this baby's head.

Ada?

Ada... Shut up and listen.

After he's said his piece

After Karl Marx.

After today, there'll be no need for prayers.

After you.

After you.

Against that wall there.

Agghh!

Ah sorry, gentlemen, I didn't hear you come in.

Ah, not a single man came back the same.

Ah!

Ah. Well. Speak of the devil.

Ah... Fuck.

All are welcome here, Mr Byrne...

All guns and no balls, right, Billy boy?

All of it!

All of Kimber's men were busy here,

All of them.

All over, son, all over.

All right, Ada, come on, have a rest, sit down. Come and look, Esme.

All right, are they...? Are they making the lady uncomfortable?

All right, Freddie, time to go.

All right, John. There's only one right... No.

All right, lads, listen up.

All right, look.

All right, men...

All right, the kids need someone.

All right!

All right?

All right?

All right? Because, I need someone.

All right.

All right. All right, mate?

All right. Jeremiah.

All right. We've about ten minutes. Make your peace with whoever.

All that stuff you said about...the Shelby Casino...

All the Lees are on their way to Worcester. We're outnumbered.

All the time.

All we found was stolen tobacco and whisky. Which you left in place.

All you've done is sign the death warrant of a good man.

All, but one gun accounted for.

Already broken.

Already invited.

Also, the communist agitator Freddie Thorne

Am I delivering bait for a trap?

Am I forgiven?

Am I laughing?

Am I making myself clear?

Amen.

Amen.

America, Freddie.

America.

An attache from the Russian embassy.

An Irish pub.

An old corporal of mine said he recognised some of the men.

An operative has provided intelligence

And a neighbour said she saw a young woman

And a woman from round here told the police about the sheets

And again.

And all my family is here to celebrate.

And all you need to know is, it's us that has the machine guns now.

And all you'll need is a shovel.

And another thing.

And anything before is nothing.

And as far as I'm concerned, you're a snitch from the Parish.

And as for my heart...

And as I told you before, I know the Lee brothers.

And barmaids don't count? No. Barmaids don't count.

And bid a fond adieu to your dear brothers, would you?

And do not make the mistake of being too gentle.

And don't speak a word of English.

And don't tell Tommy I took this.

And dumped into that part of the adult prison...

And enough belts of ammunition to hold up God's trousers.

And fear us.

And fight if you want to, but that baby ain't moving anywhere.

And for that...

And forget to make the sign of the cross.

And he actually heard me and listened,

And he can fight any one of yous in here.

And he says the police are letting them through.

And he tries to kill his own brother in law!

And his lovely new wife Esme, the Lees are now our kin.

And how come all our police have disappeared?

And how we get our booze and where we keep it.

And I am sure she provides a fine service for her customers.

And I fear that...

And I know they're going to be at the Cheltenham races as well.

And I know we wish to keep this matter confidential.

And I like what I see.

And I pray the sun will come up at the curtains

And I told him I had none.

And I want word put out in Ireland that I was not involved.

And I want you to see that as my wedding gift to you.

And I would be winning you that medal.

And I'm going to close down some of that other stuff.

And I'm not talking about marriage.

And I'm pretty sure he gave me a half smile.

And I've starved for so very long.

And if you're not gone from this city by tomorrow...

And in the same breath you ask me to trust you.

And it belongs to us, right?

And it grows by the day.

And it's me who runs the business of the heart in this family.

And it's them that's in the mud.

And it's written on the paperwork in black and white.

And Kimber's men. And his coppers.

And know this...

And lady.

And make them that do not Shelbys.

And me. And...this.

And my admiration for you...

And neither am I.

And no doubt he intends to congratulate me

And now I'm going to take over this shithole. Oh?

And now the coppers are saying if we don't turn Freddie in,

And only to you.

And our farewell to pleasures gone by.

And protection and you...

And put in his thieving, whore groping hands.

And put that in the cupboard until I say.

And returned to you with a request for a fair hearing.

And scare them all into hiding?

And she loves me the same.

And she needs marrying her off. Fuck!

And she's got some body, that one.

And Shelby money is Shelby money.

And since we are celebrating...

And sometimes it's the whisky talking.

And Stanly Chapman gets the money?

And that bloke we met in London who you said was a Frenchman.

And that is what the record should state.

And that's for you.

And that's good. Change is good.

And the grave that was dug was far deeper than your average

And the register of book keepers on the track?

And the vehicles approaching the city should not be impeded.

And the women there!

And then we shall pick the bones.

And there it goes, Grace.

And there were no officers there to witness, so...

And there's no changing their minds.

And therefore my reasons for joining the service.

And therefore...

And they did it cos they could. And cos I was weak.

And they in turn hate us.

And they never told me where they took them.

And they said some porter at the hotel had been coshed.

And they're not called spies.

And this war will be over. It's up to you John.

And three legal betting pitches

And was lined with lead...

And we can leave the city as we found it.

And we don't want any trouble.

And we have men who work in the police station.

And we'd leave wire cutters as part of the joke.

And we'll have no help from the law today.

And we'll search them one by one.

And what did my countrymen want?

And what love we get...

And what of the men who actually stole the guns?

And when he does he calls me a fucking Shelby

And when I get back here tonight...

And when the police came,

And who the bloody hell do you think you are?

And who told the police?

And yet, it's funny.

And yet, you'd still be willing to work for me?

And you are your own woman.

And you found me.

And you just point. Right?

And you know who I am.

And you still don't know how we found them, do you?

And you talk about revolution.

And you think this copper will keep his word.

And you're going to need your ears to listen.

And you've seen me...

And your sister too.

And, as a pilgrim, I come to visit the New World...

And, er... What about Kimber himself?

And, finally, we will rid this city of his kind.

And, John, she said "yes".

And, of course, we bring our own protection.

And...this.

Anonymous tip off.

Any other questions?

Any trouble, sir?

Anyone with money and good intentions

Anyway, I didn't come here to lie.

Anyway...

Anyway... we're more honest.

Are now the third largest legal race track operation in the country.

Are they not?

Are you armed?

Are you expecting trouble? Yeah.

Are you laughing at me, Tommy?

Are you mad? Yeah. Mad as hell with all of them.

Are you offering me the job?

Are you OK?

Are you suggesting that you and I could work together as a team?

Are you sure we're allowed in here?

Are you trying to... do a deal with me?

Argh! Ugh!

ARRGGHH!

Arrrggghhh!

Arrrggghhh!

Arthur is quite transparent.

Arthur Shelby never stays where he is not welcome.

Arthur Shelby.

Arthur tells me you have ideas. I'm not an accountant. Nor a lawyer.

Arthur tells me you've been asking questions...

Arthur, after your beating, I thought you needed a break...

Arthur, I was going to tell you. You were going to tell me.

Arthur, listen to me.

Arthur, Scudboat. You take the flanks.

Arthur, there are some things in the books that I don't understand.

ARTHUR: Not now, Ada. Bloody hell, you do pick your times!

Arthur? Arthur, wake up.

As a matter of fact, he's doing me today.

As a sweetener, you can try your luck with mine.

As a teetotal man I find it amusing.

As everyone in the city knows.

As I recall, you wrote to me several times about an undercover operative.

As someone who's had a hard life.

As well as my own.

As you know, to even gather like this today is illegal.

As you might know,

Ask about the welfare of his mistress in Saltley.

Asking for Tommy Shelby by name.

Associate bookmaker.

At ease.

At every race meeting north of the River Severn,

At this hour? Midnight is as good an hour as any.

Attention!

Augh!

Away and shite!

Away it goes.

Babies don't have principles.

BACKGROUND MUSIC DROWNS SPEECH

Be careful, Danny.

Be ready for anything.

Because he's as likely to hurt himself as anyone else.

Because if you are, you must be explicit.

Because it was the police who told Kimber about our plan.

Because the past is the past.

Because this is the day we replace Billy Kimber.

Become a legitimate businessman.

Been stuck in that little basement for weeks. What do we expect?

Before the day is over, your heart will be broken...

Before the devil knows you're dead.

Before the race even starts.

Before they break through.

Before you set the odds. Your information is very much appreciated.

Believe me.

Big old place like that, rumours get started.

Bravo!

Breaking out here that's going to make the Somme...

Brigade commander of the South Armagh IRA.

Business is good.

But also just the same.

But can you ask him from me if you can help us today?

But first...

But Freddie's so good at getting away.

But he does what he does for us.

But he will have the facts.

But he's set it up just for me.

But I can assure you,

But I can still drink it, right?

But I don't need you to be my father.

But I don't want to cause any discord between the brothers.

But I hope to God that my dismissal

But I should tell you something.

But I wanted to hear it from your own lips.

But I'm not.

But I'm turning things around.

But I've seen his grave. He was shot.

But if you marry her,

But it's us, boys. It's us. The Small Heath Rifles.

But lies travel faster than the truth.

But not rats? All the wharves have rats, Grace.

But of all the people in the world...

But on a more pressing matter...

But thanks to the efforts of our John,

But the police came and took his father away!

But the Shelbys really are doing an excellent job for us.

But the thing is...

But then I spoke to her sister and her cousin.

But then you changed your mind.

But they will never take your baby away from you.

But today, we're going to stop them.

But today...

But we still have to look out for each other, right?

But you can't swear on that, can you?

But you have to know...

But you're a liar.

But you've all got somebody waiting for you.

But, er, no one will have seen anything.

Buy something red.

Buy the boys a drink. Anybody hurt?

By membership and blood. He was my cousin.

By postal order to a "Daniel Owen" in London.

By the end, I was a whore with the clap.

Bye, son.

Call it all off!

Call it my better nature.

Call it off.

Calm down, Ada. Ada, calm down.

Came up on the next boat to warn you.

Can we shake hands and forget this ever happened?

Can you answer me a question?

Can you deliver him?

Comrades

Congratulations.

Congratulations. There you go.

Contract of employment.

Cordial and water would be grand, Mr Shelby.

Correct.

Cos he has so many depending on him.

Cos he knows...

Cos Tommy won't let them walk all over us.

Cos Tommy wouldn't let them.

Could you put me through to Mr Churchill, please?

Count it and leave a receipt.

Cousins, nephews, even the bastards.

Curly, if any Shelby man dies here today, you bury us side by side.

Dad, I don't want to fight you, Dad.

Did I?

Did our friends give us what we asked for?

Did you buy a dress?

Did you fall for Tommy?

Did you have something to do with this?

Did you hear me?

Did you speak to her?

Did you think we'd let you live?

Didn't you get enough minutes over there?

Dig holes and dig them deep.

Dig out a nice dress.

DISTANT SHOUTING

DISTORTED SOUND

Do it properly. These cigarettes are not fit to sell.

Do it, or else.

Do people still talk about such things this idiotic century?

Do we have a deal?

Do what, son?

Do you care?

Do you dance?

Do you have names?

Do you have the enclosure tickets?

Do you John Michael Shelby take Esme Martha Lee

Do you know why?

Do you reckon we could still do it?

Do you remember we used to jump in here,

Do you resign?

Do you still love me even though I am fat? No. Not at all?

Do you understand?

Do you want to sit?

Do you want to take off your boots?

Does he! Ain't he heard nobody in Smallheath craps in a pot

Does she deserve some kind of commendation?

Does this poor girl know you're going to marry her

Does Tommy know?

Doesn't come before your decision to hand back those guns.

Don't ask. They smell because you keep them on a boat.

Don't boats get searched?

Don't do this in here.

Don't flatter yourself. For Ada.

Don't hurt him. Freddie!

Don't move any chairs or open any doors.

Don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Everybody round here, they want you to win this battle.

Everybody's a whore, Grace.

For a fee. From those in charge.

For all I think I'm the smart one...

For both of us, Inspector.

For the right price.

For the suits.

For us. For a honeymoon that goes on for ever.

For what?

For what?

For who do you speak?

For who do you speak?

Four cash boxes.

Give me a bottle of whiskey and three glasses please.

Give me the cash.

Given to the Communist party by the Russian Government.

Go easy, John boy. Easy.

Go home to your families.

Go home, lad. Before you catch yourself a spanking.

Go home.

Go on, Tommy, go out the back,

God knows you have.

God says he don't deal with Small Heath, sir.

God takes the best first.

God, he's getting big now.

God's honest truth?

Going for good?

Good boy.

Good man.

Good.

Good.

Good. Let's go.

Grace said there's a truce.

Grace, can I have this dance?

Grace, I know you weren't born to be with a man like me...

Grace, the death of a base Fenian doesn't concern me.

Grace!

Grace. Bring some water and cordial to the snug.

Grace...

Grace...

Grace...

Grace...

Grace...will you marry me?

Guns, Mr Shelby. A serious amount of guns.

Guns, Mr Shelby. We'd pay good money.

GUNSHOT

Had the name of a hotel on them.

Hallowed be thy name....

Harry said the police are already in Digbeth.

Have a drink.

Have another.

Have you lost your mind? I said shut up!

Have you seen Freddie Thorne?

Have your heads stoved in with mallets and spades.

He boasts about a stack of Lewis machine guns.

HE CHUCKLES

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

HE COUGHS AND SOBS

HE GASPS AND BREATHES

He had some kind of seizure.

He has a place a couple of miles away.

He has an imagination.

He has obviously fallen quite heavily for you.

He has promoted me.

He has proved himself a deadly menace to the King's peace.

HE IMITATES HIS GRANDDAD: "Honest bloody money? Eh?"

He is currently holding £200 in cash.

He is obviously not stupid.

He keeps his ears open for business.

He laughed, a lot.

HE LAUGHS

He left with Grace.

He left...

He managed to escape easily and is now at large.

He might take you in.

He needs himself a licence.

He never usually smiles unless a political opponent dies.

HE RETCHES

He said a lot, but the only bit I heard... was that their high command

He said it's Kimber boys, and they're heading this way.

He said that when he entered the room, you were embracing.

He said there's been trouble. An IRA man shot.

He says he wants a meeting about a family matter.

He says only the brothers know where the guns are kept.

He says the Peaky Blinders do have the guns.

HE SCOFFS You think she'll listen to me?

He settles quicker with me cos he can't smell the milk.

HE SIGHS

HE SLAMS THE GUN DOWN

HE SOBS

He still refuses to say where it came from.

He talks well.

He thinks he's a ladies' man. He thinks he can seduce you.

He trusts me. I told you that.

He trusts me. I told you that.

He wanted to work with horses.

He wants me to be his book keeper and secretary.

He was killed by one of his own.

He was Russian. I'm not an idiot, Freddie.

He won medals.

He would however be lifted as a juvenile

He'd be turning in his grave.

He'll come back and take his place with Scudboat.

He'll do.

He's a good man.

He's a selfish bastard.

He's a Shelby.

He's changed the oil and greased her up.

He's good with motors, but it pains him.

He's got sons. Should we find work for them?

He's got the Flanders blues again.

He's like a fish.

He's not speaking to me.

He's off the bloody rails, is what he is.

He's our dad.

He's set a trap all right.

He's too soft. Soft?

Heading towards the city.

Hello, Raz. How's business?

Hello, son.

Help you with what?

Her brother and her husband, fighting over the same thing.

Her dad is giving you a car.

Her what?

Here it comes, Tommy.

Here she is.

Hey, Grace, I was joking.

Hit him! Hit him! That's it! Hit him!

Hm?

Hold 'em up in the air so as they can see what we've got.

Hold him still. That's it, lad.

Hold your guns up!

Holy shit!

Holy shit.

How about I keep my money, and you shove a licence up your arsecrack?

How about that one?

How are you, son?

How can I?

How dare you do something like that without talking to Thomas or me?

How do I look?

How do we know it's for sale?

How do you know? Police don't spill that information.

How does it look?

How hard can it be to find the only girl in Birmingham

How is it you take all the risks

How many are there?

How many men can you put in the field at one time?

How much did you pay for the suit you'll be wearing?

How much, how much to get started?

How much? £200.

How should I know?

How the bloody hell do you know? I know a lot of things, Mr Kimber.

How...how could you do this to us?

Hullo, son. May I ask who gave my whereabouts?

Hungry for work, are you? Yeah.

I always wondered, how do you fix a race?

I am a man of influence there.

I am an agent of the crown.

I am from South Armagh.

I am going to be sitting there.

I am going to make a success of it.

I am going to make a success of this.

I am judge, jury and executioner.

I am just trying to help.

I am looking directly at the events of the day.

I am not looking the other way, Sergeant Moss.

I am planning an expansion. Onto the racetracks.

I am so old?

I am sorry about this, comrade.

I am taking five pounds from petty cash all right?

I am taking you in for interrogation on behalf of the Irish Free State.

I am told she goes to a bathhouse on Montague Street

I am unarmed.

I am. I know. I know.

I am...I am a simple man, but a good man.

I asked an acquaintance for an address.

I believe last night something inside me changed.

I believe you boys call this "no man's land."
