7 Strict Rules The Cast Of Peaky Blinders Has To Follow |⭐ OSSA

- Peaky Blinders cast had to follow a set of strict rules to bring us the authentic story of a gangster family in between the wars.
And most of those rules were created by a showrunner Steven Knight.
Birmingham accent was one of the most important skills required from the cast, and some actors failed to land the role because of it. Cillian Murphy aka Tommy Shelby got some help from Steven Knight himself, while his co-star Helen McCrory watched endless videos of Ozzy Osbourne to master the brogue.
Peaky Blinders set was filled with smoke as for the characters cigarettes were part of the lifestyle. But none of the Peaky Blinders cast ruined their lungs as they used nicotine-free cigs.
Peaky Blinders haircut became almost as popular as Rachel Green's one, but Cillian Murphy initially hated it.
Peaky Blinders cast is a group of method actors who live in the skin of their characters for the entire filming, and that is emotionally exhausting.
The show is so violent that Helen McCrory aka Polly Gray can't watch it.
To prepare for his role in Peaky Blinders, Murphy worked out, learned to ride a horse and lower his voice, while McCrory consulted David Blaine and got used to walking with a gun in her stocking.
While Peaky Blinders has many famous admirers who'd like to join the cast, Steven Knight did not want huge celebs to appear in the show. However, he changed his opinion, so we might see star cameos in Peaky Blinders season 6.
And here's our video about the Peaky Blinders cast's love life: • Peaky Blinders: Real-L...

Ok
The fact you pinned your own comment, just proves how tragic this channel is
02/06/2023: Guys on set at his request counted 3000 per episode. He stated that he personally disliked cigarettes and that those were not the real deal.
“DOUU this, John.... DOUUU that, John... KILL YOUR FOKKING TEACHER, JOHN”
Still one of the best lines in the show for me
facts
his acting was on point in that scene
yeah. its john himself made a mistake.
Question, do any British people actually watch this show apart from me or is it just Americans making fun of the accents
Douu this, Jowhn.... DOUUU that, jowhn... KILL YOU FOKKIN TEACHER, JOWN..
Without Cillian Murphy it's not peakyblinders believe me.
So true. He’s just goated 🐐
Agree
Bro, he is the peaky blinders he built it in the movie as well as the fame of the movie. HE'S SO GOOD
If Thomas dies or they put another actor to play him , I'm not watching it nomo6
@CLAP TRAPP yeah it is
and they said they will make a movie too
Rest in Peace Aunt Polly. Helen McCrory has sadly died.
omg I'm heartbroken. At first I thought it's not true
RIP beautiful soul
In the bleak midwinter
@@DubHead69420 just because you hated the character doesn't mean the woman deserved to die due to cancer.
Wtf!! I had no idea
For everyone who is mad at Joe Cole (John's actor) - don't be. He didn't leave because he was salty. His words are getting twisted and misunderstood. He is just pointing out the obvious, that Peaky Blinders is Cillian Murphy's show, not really anyone else's. It's hard to break out as an actor when you are starring in a show known for only one person in particular of which they will always play a more prominent role than you. Then imagine having to stay with a show for years playing a character that gets no development. John barely changed or grew in 3 seasons and was nowhere near focused on to the extent Arthur, Polly, or Tommy were. It makes sense as an actor with a lot of talent to give Joe would want to go somewhere else, where he could showcase his talents and get paid better for them too. As much as we all miss John, sometimes actors have to cut ties and take risks in their career. It's clear he has no hard feelings towards the show or actors.
caitlin b Well observed, I also felt 'John' got a bit of a raw deal in character development, with less interesting (and likeable) cousin 'Michael' upon his arrival receiving far more profile. That said, young Joe Cole will be hard pressed finding a tv (or even film) project as quality controlled, in terms of both script and production, as ol' Peaky Blinders. Personally think creator Knight would do a great service in focusing more on some of the serial's other key characters, esp. 'Arthur'; the drama's #1 scene stealer / sartorial meister, and how 'bout Benjamin Zephaniah's 'Jeremiah' gettin' some better input!?
+1
i agree. Even Finn Shelby is getting more development as the seasons go on. I think it was a good call for Joe though as John's death definitely helped the other characters to develop more too.
This is tragic since I thoroughly enjoyed Johns nuanced persona, he was such a cool character and it was really a gut punch seeing him go *(literally and figuratively I guess).
Really well said! Rest in peace Helen McCrory..
I wish I knew how many times in the script it says ‘Tom lights a cigarette’
Problably more times than the name "Harry Potter" is in the books of Harry Potter. Why does everybody has to call him by his Full name?
@@hermanoguimaraes6343 They don't, they call him Potter more often than Harry though.
I swear.. season 3-4 I was like.. this man is gonna die from throat cancer... He was always clearing his throat and what not... The enemy won't kill him but those damn cigarettes will 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@averyprice9422 I noticed that, he didn't clear his throat I all I dont in the first seasons

Theres a lot of people who reckon Cillian Murphy is the central guy that carries the series.Yes,he's the main character,but my God, Tom Hardy's Alfie Solomon is an equal,and brings so much dark fun to it.
Arthur and Alfie made me laugh alot. When Arthur said he heard a blackbird just after Tommy was super intense I couldnt help laughing .😆
yes this kind of characters can easily become the fan favorite, but Thomas still the goat of the show, Cillian really play it brilliantly with depth
@@lililee911 absolutely as I do love Tom Hardy’s character with Alfie but their 100% not equal to tommy
Alfie doesn't even have the same screen time or even closer. Show is Cillian murphy and others.
Arfa, Arfa, shalom Arfa.
Cillian Murphy was actually casted in a lot of lead roles but at the same time he also played tons of side characters yet he still able to portray them with heart and made them become memorable and outstanding. This makes me respect him even more as he proves me that there's no big role or small role in acting but good or bad. Apparently, he is not a celebrity, he is a REAL ACTOR.
Cillian is in 'Girl with a Pearl Earring' with Colin Firth and Scarlett Johansson. 2003. Made in Luxembourg.
Tom Hardy was in 'Minotaur' possibly the worst film ever made, in Luxembourg. 2006.
That guy can truly slip into different characters/roles. He‘s no longer himself. I find that he‘s talented to the point where I have a hard time recognizing him, when he switches roles. Simply incredible. I think I don’t know of any other actor who can actually do it that impressively. Such a talented man.
Right, guy played in Dunkirk as "shivering soldier", and he said like what, 4 words? But he was nevertheless successful in bringing that role alive.
Scarecrow
Favorite line by John as he walks into the Garrison to find Arthur clearly distraught after the woman who's son Arthur killed shot at him "Who broke the mirror? 7 Years bad luck that is." And strolls past without a care, brilliant!
My favorite line by John is every time he goes "Fff fooks saake"
They said what Cillian is not huge star , c'mon he is becoming it now
He was
He is ♥️
he has always been

The chikins are hungry
John's character was more appealing to me and more badass than anyone else. He portrayed John perfectly and I loved the character so much. He was much cooler than others
His death scene was pretty badass
Me too 😭😭
Agree, "and we are peaky fookin blinders"
I agree and disagree. He was REALLY cool; gun slinging, pretty-boy, cool guy all around. However, he didn't get much character development, which is probably why Joe left the role. I wish I could have seen some traces of his WWI trauma, but in a way, the character John seemed to ENJOY the war.
He was portrayed too one dimensionally. Hell, the character who joined the show later in the season (Michael) got more development and screen time than him
Anyways it is the one of the best shows on Netflix
Best show by the bbc
It's not a netflix programme it's a BBC netflix bought viewing rights
@@ShallowApple22 they said on netflix not by netflix
@@ShallowApple22 And what does it matter why do you care. He clearly enjoyed the show and I doubt it would of changer his mind if he had to watch it on bbc iPlayer
I agree and same with Babylon Berlin. There’s a parallel between the two.
They didn't make it quite clear how awkward the language mistake was in season 1. Confusing Romani for Romanian is like confusing Austria for Australia.
Maybe they mistaken it because most of the romani populatian lives in romania and also most of them speak Romanian .
and also the romanian accent was awfull.
That actually happened to me. I told someone I was an Ausie and they thought it meant i was from Austria.
@@maxverstappennonofficial Actually, although Romania has the largest population, most Romani live in other places.
It’s actually quite amusing to us, all in all. Especially the Lee’s…because yes, they’re still very much around and real. I know plenty of them myself, despite being from a different clan. Lee’s are some of the most common romani there is. And they all get a kick out of how they portray them because it’s as accurate as an outsider can get to understanding romani tradition, while the language is just funny. It’s hilarious for us to watch them try to imitate our accents, while using the wrong dialect. But in a good way, not a mocking way.
@@gogo8302 do you know the words Tommy's daughter told her mum Lizzy when she was sick? Do you know what they translate to in English? And also is it just coincidence that Jonny Dogs is Irish and Romani gypsy? I heard they aren't historically related.
RIP Helen McCrory, no one will bring polly gray to life as well as you did, thank you for making this show infinitely more enjoyable to watch with your amazing performances
@TheManagement you're pathetic.
Wow I just found out this news reading your comment now I'm going to see the show differently 😢
Hardy and Brody fit the roles brilliantly. It's easy to forget who is in the role and just see Alfie Solomons or Luca Changretta. Kind of like how both take a bullet in the face in season 4 too.
Spoilers lol
I didnt like Luca at all. Overacted, too mafioso, not believable. My least liked dude on the series. The voice, the way he do things, was just too much.
@@castronator29 I dunno though- it takes a helluva lot of acting to REALLY Get that Italian right. Honestly- while I thought the character was somewhat underwhelmed. I enjoyed his odd presence.
@@averagesteel9666 The italian is alright, for me, what was the problem was the rest. It was too overacted, too Vito Corleone, the broken voice and stuff..
@@castronator29 completely agree the accent was terrible
Without Cillian Murphy, there is no Peaky Blinders. Period.
Rest in peace Helen McCrory
Omg. Didn't know until your comment.
@@sgdrn574 its so sad...
rest in peace the bleak midwinter, aunt pol 😔
@@fun51124 in the bleak midwinter.
Of course is Cillians show, he's the main character. How could anybody be mad at that? Imagine leaving that opportunity.
Spoliers*
To be fair though, that character death was so impactful that it was almost needed to the story.
@@Phoenixheart77 i agree one of the brothers dying early on was a good first impression to Luca but then he didnt do anything of that nature later on. he organizes a meeting with him, and even managed to have his gun unloaded. then 3 episodes later he trusts Polly for some reason and almost dies. fun season, but probably the worst one
Aspiring actors don't have the luxury of sticking with a show that is known for one person only. Joe was missing opportunities and wasting his talents by staying with a character that plays third or fourth fiddle to many others and does not get a high quality of development. It's not so much he was mad about that but he needed to leave and take a risk to get better roles. It seems it's paid off so far.
He didn’t seem salty just pointing out he was looking for other opportunities
Yeah but it’s not really fair if the character doesn’t grow in 3 seasons, it’s sad
Arthur is very underrated.. he is sooo good.. one of the best characters of the series..
Sucks that Joe felt like that i loved him in the show im still not over what happened to John ....
Watch Gangs of London if you want to see him in more of a prominent role. Prepare for a step up on the violence though.
And he went to "star" in Gangs of London and got killed off in S1. Meanwhile Finn Cole has a pretty plum role on Peaky...
Ikr, i love how he smirk
Cillian for Peaky Blinders is what Travis FImmel was for Vikings! Bullseye casting
You have good taste. Cillian is the same as ludwig and fimmel for their respective shows.
One of the best series ever made. And RIP Helen McCrory. Rest in power Aunt Pol! 🖤
On the bleak midwinter
Cole got it so wrong! This show's uniqueness is that eventhough it revolves around Tommy, everyone else is as memorable and important as the story the add to. Arthur....what a Rollercoaster, Polly what a Dame! Ada kills it...you want more of everyone. The younger brother, the kids...Johnny Dogs...I can't list them. This shows is densely amazing! Can't wait for season 6. Helen McCorey RIP. Gone too soon Lady!
I think Joe (John) underestimated how many fans love his character and how impressed we were by his performance.
Tommy was the main focus obviously, but almost every show/movie made always has a main character.
I thought he played the part so well, sad he left, but understandable.
Helen McCrory, you were an incredibly charismatic actress, your role as (Aunt) Polly Gray, which was a major and essential part of Peaky Blinders, proved it.
Rest In Peace ♥
What happened to her??
She was fabulous! Absolutely fabous❤
I have never had any problems with the accent of the show. Maybe it is the advantage of living in Ireland, where the dialect changes every 20km or by the amount of pints consumed.
😂😂😂😂
I struggled to understand them in the first episode, but after that I got every word.
I hate my prejudices! I hate that I feel like everything spoken in irish or higlands schottish ...
Celtic accent english...is so deep, profund...so true...even if I know every god damn country has it's pricks.
I'm German and sometimes the accents in the show are easier to understand than certain dialects here. I'm looking at you Bayern and your accent no one outside of it understands.
Honestly watching this show has improved my ability to understand strong accents ten fold
you’re telling me the accent is diluted?? 💀💀 and i still BARELY understand them
How? Where are u from? I am from Croatia and 90+% of the time i dont need subtitles ...
@@denisla3546 the accent is hard to understand sometimes so i need to have the subtitles on and im from the us
@@denisla3546 hahah same
Bet £££ that you’re American
@@denisla3546 nisu pametni ko mi
It's a little dumbfounding to learn that Joe Cole partly left the show because he felt that his role wasn't big enough. John was my favorite character in the show. I loved how he was the perfect middle ground between Tommy's boldness and Arthur's carelessness. He had control of his dark side. A very cool character in a very cool show. And Joe Cole played the part better than any actor I can think of.
Joe Cole's(John) words were misunderstood. In 3 seasons, his character didn't develop at all. He's so good in "Gangs Of London" and the "A Prayer Before Dawn" movie. He seems to be someone with versatile interests which he wouldn't pursue, if he'd stayed any longer in PB.
"Its Cillian`s show..."
Thank God it is.
Cillian murphy should get an oscar for his wonderful acting wt a wonderful actor..
Arthur. Just the best acting - period!
Incredible!
"Lift things up and put them down again"....Yup, you've pretty much nailed it, Cillian
when cillian said to the director “remember i’m an actor” proves that they made the right decision to hire him
they had to chill on the accent for the americans 💀💀
I'm suprised there's also many English people who don't understand it.

I'm actually really surprised he learned to ride horses for the show within weeks. When I watched season 1 he made it seem like he's been doing that for years!
Cillian was definitely made for this show or should I say this show was made for Cillian!!! Either way I love it!!
John was my favorite character in the show... 😐
Me too. Broke me heart when he died
Always
I did the mistake to try and quit smoking while watching Peaky Blinders 😅
Lool tell me about it
Read . borstal boy. by brendan behan . But I warn you the book is a masterpiece and on true events . But you better have plenty of tobacco because you will smoke 🚬 like a chimney I'm 57 now but the cravi g it gave e me readi g this book and how the joy and everything else that comes with being in jail and not having any
Personally, I find the violence in Peaky Blinders to be one of the purest froms of love for family put on screen in recent years. If a man isnt atleast willing and able to take it to that level to defend his Famiglia, what good is he. Its part of loyalty, which is to rare these days.
Il sangue non ti rende famiglia, la lealtà sì.
Alfie solomons was ✨genius✨
As a high end barber, the hair is one of the best parts of the show. Every single person has a 🔥🔥 cut.
RIP Helen, what a legend
John was one of my favourite characters, petty he left for feeling like "He never got out of the gates" I teared up when he died and got goosebumps every time he had a badass scene.
"He'll wake up. Granted he won't have any teeth left, but he will be a wiser man for it."
Alfie Solomons
I miss john so much. I get really attached to characters and John’s death was really one of the most heartbreaking for me.
Also even more heartbreaking is Helen… She was such an amazing actress and made Polly a truly iconic character, probably as much as Tommy! R.I.P Helen, Polly and John.
Cmon no one missed John
@@noway9426you’re dumb hard of the peaky blinders fandom misses John and has said that the show went down hill when he did end so 😂
I had been cigarette free for almost 2 years and when I binge watched this show in 4 days by day 3 I ended buying a pack a cigarettes lmao proud to say I finished that pack and haven’t smoked since😅
The undercut is one of the best cuts of all time
Alfies scene where he was arguing with Tommy is legendary to me.
@@ElPajaroMeaPrietas Who's ur fav character?
Other than Tommy. Bc he's charismatic af
Sad, John Shelby was my absolute favorite character of the show.
@TheManagement and so are you
Why? How?
Each and everyone in the cast are Masters of their craft! Without each of them, the show would not be what it is! This is the Greatest movie of all times! I stopped counting after 6 times watching it! Way to Go!❤
I LOVED LOVED LOVED mad men tv show! And I hated scarecrow! Now, for me, there are three big tv shows I keep in my heart after 2000: supernatural, mad men, peaky blinders. Photography, soundtracs, acting...plot....I just love it.
Narcos too, but a bit less.
Going to be sad to see this one go. Such an incredible show.
Seriously, my current fave series...I watch each episode. RIP Helen McCrory😢😢😢
Mom: What are you doing?
Me: Im watching the Peaky fookin Blinders
Best show ever, fantastic actors, actresses ... R.I.P Helen ❤️
I just can’t accept Helen McCrory, our beloved Gypsy Queen, isn’t with us anymore.
Farewell, wonderful woman. Thank you for everything, including this legendary character.
Did she say smoking was the "alleged lifestyle in between the wars" - is there any doubt that among the lower classes in middle-England, especially among veterans, that MOST people puffed like chimneys? Where does the 'alleged' come from?
literally one of the best shows omg
After I have watched this rules, I just realized that they worked harder than I thought it would be, and their hard works were paid of
"The brutal murder of a horse" topped the list of violent scenes in Peaky Blinders? I don't remember horses being gratuitously killed, I remember two sick horses being put down, much to the character's despair in seasons 1 and 5.
And - it was off screen. Not like the attempted suicides, Peaky Blinding, shooting, rape, and blood of many other scenes. BUT THE POOR HORSE REALLY TAKES THE CAKE.
hahaha you got a good point
So you haven't noticed the extremely loud and obnoxious part of society that believes animal lives are more important than human ones? I see those folks all the time and just shake my head.
@@The0ne7777 Right? Humanity and empathy are great and all but people need to see the line between human life and animal life.

I loved Peaky Blinders. Great show, loved every member. Was so upset to hear Polly had passed away in real life.
I was on the set and they say that the actor of Mr bean (i forgot his name) might be hitler in the next seasons and also bonus info: mikel grey and jhon shelby are brothers in real life
Is he not dead??
This has been leaked info forever now
Both of the things you just said have been around since season 5 for the first one and since season two for the second plus we all know full well that rowan Atkinson won't be hitler plus it's almost a certainty hitler won't appear as the show is set inbetween world war one and world war two . With your hitler theory , if it was true, it would be official already , we've already been told Charlie murphy isn't coming back and we've been told about one or more actors who have joined the cast .
Was totally devastated to learn Helen McCrory had died. Am just into season 4. You can get drunk just watching this show. There's a movie that I discovered that treats with gangsterism in London: "Legend".
RIP Helen McCrory
Honestly believe this is the best show on TV right now
Just finished all seasons, WHAT A CLIFF HANGER
Covid: Do you want to die.
Peaky Blinders: Hold my Cigarette.

John's character deserves to have more depth, freedom, the way Arthur's character had been developed. Still made the brave decision to cut the ties with the show and moved on.
Steven Knight is a genius
Obsessed with this show!
Luv the show every actors fit their role...RIP Polly you are free
quite surprised by joe cole's comment. i thought hr loved being a part of the brothers (as he said so himself in dozens of interviews).
I just finished watching the entire series again, as I anxiously awaits the final season. I truly do not want to see anymore "celebrities" in the final season. I enjoy good acting, not features from famous people, that can never get out of the character of their celebrity. Tom and Adrian worked because they are incredible actors.
I loved how badass Polly was and her attitude
Just got put onto this show a few months ago. As an American, I had turn the sub on because man, I couldn't understand some of their conversations lol. Had me scratching my head out of confusion lol.

best show I've ever watch love love love love it ,they have to keep making these shows I love them best ever......
Cillian was also in Dunkirk a great actor
As in Joe Cole felt that he lived in the shadow of Cillian - I reckon he did a great job
I watched an interview where he said he left because it's thr Thomas Shelby show and he knew his character would not grow. His brother who plays Michael has stayed on.
Stephen Knight must love walking shoulder to shoulder scenes
