Storyline
‘Rambert… an independent dance company, dedicated to bringing dance to the people. I’m a patron, we share a philosophy.’ - Tommy Shelby, S5 ep4

Taking place in post-war industrial Birmingham, a personal drama develops in the battlefields of Flanders. The Shelby family faces fate-determining choices, and Tommy is captivated by the enigmatic Grace. Grace is sneaking up on Tommy's gang as an undercover agent for Special Branch, all the while he's busy expanding his empire.
