Sneaky Peaky Blinders

[Prudie]

I just can't get my head round the name of this new drama but I'm looking forward to it starting this week. Anyone want to join me in watching?

I read the review, I can't say it grabbed me....

Whats it about ?.

Never heard of it, what's it about?

[Prudie]

I believe it's based on some truth, there's an article about it in the mail today. Basically a Birmingham mobster group from between the wars.

I like the look of that, Prudie close to my neck of the woods, I will watch or record that.

LOL hc, that had crossed my mind, they don't seem like they were a nice bunch!

[tonyav]

They ruled the industrialised areas of Bordesley and Small Heath from the 1880s through to the early 1900s,

That explains it all now !, Birmingham City fans lol.
