    Tommy: sad
    Grace: okay, but I warn you, I'll break your heart.

    I think the not eating is great, even if by accident. When you're eating you're kind of vulnerable, you don't eat when you are in a dangerous position. So, it makes sense that his character would not want to be in any form vulnerable as he is generally dealing with conflict, taking meetings with powerful enemies or enemies of enemies.

    It's another series where no season falls flat, This first episode of season 6 has been just as amazing and I suspect the rest of the season will be. The problem with most shows is that they don't stop at the right time, that's why you find all these great shows have a great first few seasons before dropping in quality. It's because the story has hit most of its beats already and is generally being dragged out. If a show is written with an ending in mind its generally going to be good throughout because it can be paced like a film with multiple steps. It can set up the climax and ending of the show a lot smoother than a cash cow show that decides one year that this is the last season. Love this show

    The entire cast, from primary to secondary characters and beyond, were top rate fantastic. Everyone knew the assignment. One of the best shows of all time.

    I love Cillian 👑❤️ He was born to play Thomas Shelby. He immortalized the character.

    He’s one of the greats, an absolutely amazing actor, every part he has played he totally nailed it, can’t wait to see him as Oppenheimer. From Thomas Shelby to a nerdy physicist, no problems at all!

    Love Cillian, such a gifted actor and yet seems so unspoilt and genuine. I like the way he doesn't seek the spotlight, but lets his work speak for him.

    I love hearing about Tommy’s lack of eating! There’s a family story of my father attending dinners in the late 70s with an actor, who was a family friend of his at-the-time girlfriend. My father mentioned how they would never eat if a photographer was around to protect his image, and this feels almost reminiscent of that.

      Ooh good one! And the time he did eat on the show he was with his son so he let his guard down. Alright this is canon for me now

    This guy fought against batmam in batman begins, Zombies in 28 days and two times against Nazis in Anthropois and Dunkirk. Nevertheless his most badass character is a smooth talking Birmimghan boy. Tommy Shelby was for Cillian what Tyler Durden was for Brad Pitt. From babyface actors who most men hardly knew, to icons most men want to be.
