The relationship between Cruz and Aaliyah takes an unexpected turn, posing potential complications in their undercover operation.

Season 1, Episode 6 of the Zoe Saldana-led series, Special Ops: Lioness, dropped August 20 on Paramount+ and presented what may be Cruz's most difficult obstacle to overcome. While Joe has worked hard to ensure that Cruz is mentally and physically prepared for her mission, the emotional challenges have clearly caught Cruz off guard.

Tom Hardy's "Peaky Blinders" character has been through a lot over the course of the series' six seasons. Most notably, in the fourth season finale his character Alfie Solomons got shot in the face by on-and-off ally Tommy (Cillian Murphy), only to apparently live to reconcile with the show's antihero another day. Hardy returned in the fifth season, one eye blinded and his face scarred by the injury, yet still walking and talking and ready to knock some skulls as needed.

Except, what ever happened to the cancer that Alfie told Tommy he had just before he got shot? And what about his unexplained skin condition, which gets progressively worse throughout the series before being mostly replaced by his gunshot scars in season 5? Was his coarse and discolored skin a hint at the cancer diagnosis, or something else entirely? Surprisingly, the answer might tie in to the key "Peaky Blinders" character's ultimate fate.

The “Peaky Blinders” film spin-off will begin production in the next 18 months, according to screenwriter Steven Knight. During an interview with U.K. radio station Heart FM, Knight confirmed that he’s “nearly done” writing the script.

“We’re going to shoot it at the studios in Digbeth, and on location in Digbeth in Birmingham,” he said. “Digbeth and Small Heath [are] where the Peaky Blinders actually roamed, so it’s like ‘Peaky’s’ coming home.”

As for whether fan favorites will return for the film, Knight teased: “There’s going to be some familiar faces and new faces that will hopefully be quite surprising.”

Warning: contains plot spoilers for Peaky Blinders season six 1-6.

Peaky Blinders is a designer’s dream, says Nicole Northridge. The gangster drama’s visual style, mythological swagger and love of symbolism mean that when it comes to designing its sets, “you can absolutely go to town. You can make it abstract, almost like a graphic novel.” The period backdrops and locations aren’t only laboriously researched by production designer Northridge and her art team in collaboration with director Anthony Byrne, but also woven with symbolic story references. Gold, black, white horses, rising suns, images foreshadowing death and evoking the rot of fascism… season six’s backdrops are studded with thematic visual detail, adding extra layers of meaning if you know where to look.

Gold = Money = Death

Visually, season six is dripping with gold, a symbol of the material wealth Tommy Shelby has amassed over more than a decade of gangsterism.

Exclusive: Spoiler Alert: This post contains details about the series finale of Peaky Blinders…: Peaky Blinders, the award-winning, fan-adored period gangster epic created by Steven Knight drew to a close in its TV series form on Sunday night in the UK (it debuts in the U.S. and elsewhere via Netflix on June 10). The finale, which has been unanimously praised, also leans in to the much touted movie to come, which Knight, in our discussion below, says will take place during World War II. Here’s our post-mortem on Peaky, and a look forward.

Deadline: So, let me just start with this: Thank you for not killing Tommy

Steven Knight: You can’t kill Tommy! It’s good the fact that it’s the last episode cause people think he might actually die, whereas if there’s another series… you know what I mean? So you do have that on your side.

Warning: this Peaky Blinders review contains spoilers.

Tommy escaped. He escaped it all – the fascists and the fake diagnosis and his family and himself. He rode out of Peaky Blinders just as he rode into it, only this time (this drama loves symbolism) on a white and not a black horse. Season six had sent him to hell where he’d reckoned with his sins. Then a plot by his enemies presented him with a rare opportunity to ride for the hills and leave it all behind. And as we know, Tommy’s never one to miss an opportunity. When Arthur and Curly and Charlie rake the ashes of Tommy’s wagon for silver and gold, they’ll find his wedding ring and watch and think him gone. He’s free.

Free, that is, until the Peaky Blinders feature film comes out, when Tommy Shelby or Mr Jones or the...

The Radiohead side project the Smile debuted the studio version of their song “Pana-vision” in tonight’s episode of Peaky Blinders, with the track appearing online hours before the series finale episode.

The track was paired by an animated video directed by Sabrina Nichols featuring artwork by Radiohead’s in-house artist Stanley Donwood.

In addition to “Pana-vision,” singer Thom Yorke also recorded a new piano instrumental, “That’s How Horses Are,” in tonight’s episode; the frontman previously released his solo track “5.17” in March during Peaky Blinders’ third episode.

The finale of “Peaky Blinders” will be a feature-length episode that builds expectations for an upcoming franchise film, director Anthony Byrne says.

Byrne told RadioTimes.com the Season 6 send-off has a run time of 81 minutes.

“It’s such a Peaky thing to do for the last hurrah. It’s the 10:22 news for one night only,” Byrne said. “It feels very, very different to the rest of the season. It feels very, very different to anything we’ve done before. It’s very epic in scope. It feels like a film – it’s a kind of dry run for the feature film.”

Show creator Steven Knight also told RadioTimes.com that the upcoming movie will be an “untold story that happened in the Second World War, which the Peakys are going to be involved in”.

Byrne has previously responded to criticism about the change in the show’s tone, especially for the last season.

Already in the midst of his Radiohead side project The Smile, Thom Yorke dropped a surprise new song titled “5.17” on streaming services without warning Sunday.

While it’s unclear why the piano ballad suddenly appeared — reps for Yorke did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone’s request for comment — its arrival coincides with Sunday’s premiere of the third episode of Peaky Blinders’ sixth season, which Yorke and band mate Jonny Greenwood reportedly contributed new music to.

“Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood contributed some original stuff,” Peaky Blinders director Anthony Byrne previously told NME.

With the sixth and final season of period gangster epic Peaky Blinders currently enjoying a strong run in the UK, Netflix has set the premiere date for the rest of the world. All six episodes of Season 6 will launch on the streaming service at 12:01Am on June 10 in the U.S. and all markets where Netflix has the show’s rights.

The Cillian Murphy-led series debuted its sixth season in late February on BBC One in the UK, setting a new record for a season launch at 3.8 million overnight viewers. That was the best score for the Shelby clan in a debut episode ever and also tied the series’ overall record which was previously set by the Season 5 finale in September 2019.

Season 6 is the last run of the drama in series form. However, creator Steven Knight recently confirmed to us that a movie is definitely going to happen with the same players.

By order of the Peaky Blinders, Universal Music is issuing a blood-red vinyl edition of the official soundtrack to the popular series, which just tied its own record for viewers in the Season 6 debut.

The highly-anticipated Season 6 premiere of the period gangster epic was watched by 3.8 million viewers in the UK on Sunday, according to overnight figures. That ties the record set by the Season 5 finale.

The show is expected to return for US viewing via Netflix some time later this year. The soundtrack is available as of May 27, but can be pre-ordered.

Peaky Blinders began airing on BBC Two in 2013 and went on to win the BAFTA for Best Drama in its fourth season. It then moved to BBC One in 2019 and has continued to grow. Executive producers are Caryn Mandabach, Steven Knight, Jamie Glazebrook, David Mason, Anthony Byrne and Cillian Murphy.

The soundtrack features the haunting rendition of...

The highly-anticipated Season 6 premiere of period gangster epic Peaky Blinders was watched by 3.8 million viewers in the UK on Sunday, according to overnight figures. That makes it the biggest launch for the Shelby clan ever, coming in above the Season 5 debut’s 3.7 million overnight average. It also ties the series record previously set by the Season 5 finale in September 2019. The market share was 21.8% on Sunday with a peak of 4.1 million viewers. The episode faced strong competition from the season finale of ITV drama Trigger Point which ended up winning the 9pm slot.

Airing on the UK’s BBC One, ahead of the global Netflix release which is as-yet undated, the first episode of Peaky’s sixth and final season was dedicated to the memory of Helen McCrory who passed away last year after a battle with cancer. The episode also revealed how creator Steven Knight, director Anthony Byrne and the...

Warning: contains spoilers for Peaky Blinders series 6 episode 1 ‘Black Day’.

An intricately crafted drama that rewards digging through the details (as our exploration of the hidden messages in the season five sets shows), here’s our weekly accompaniment to every Peaky Blinders season six episode, including references, locations, real history and more. Read our spoiler-filled episode one review here.

Episode One: Black Day Charlie Chaplin, William Blake, and The Shining

– The Romani gypsy words spoken by Ruby in her fevered state appear to be “Tikno mora o beng o beng”. In this English/Romani dictionary, ‘tikno’ means child or small, ‘mora’ or ‘maura’ means to slay or kill, and ‘o beng’ means ‘the devil’. Tommy takes those words extremely seriously and instructs Lizzie to keep Ruby away from horses and water, and to have Johnny Dogs’ eldest wife Esmeralda put a Black Madonna pendant around Ruby’s neck for protection from curses.

BBC One has set the premiere date for the sixth and final season of Peaky Blinders with the award-winning period gangster saga set to return on February 27 at 9pm in the UK. The date was made official this morning in Birmingham, home to the fictional Shelby clan, via a 42-foot high mural looming over Digbeth’s Old Crown (see it in full below).

The season will run for six episodes on BBC One on Sundays. Netflix airs the hit series outside the UK, though a start date has not been confirmed. Typically, the show begins on Netflix following the original UK run.

Cillian Murphy is back as Tommy Shelby, who we saw in the trailer released last month to be seeking a means for the titular clan to finally rest. Returning as well are Tom Hardy, Paul Anderson, Finn Cole, Anya Taylor-Joy and Sophie Rundle, among others. Stephen Graham also appears.

Warning: contains Peaky Blinders Series 5 spoilers.

Since Peaky Blinders broke through on Netflix in the US, its creators have dropped hints about the Hollywood superstars lobbying for roles in the Birmingham-based gangster drama. Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Snoop Dogg, Samuel L. Jackson and more are all fans of the show, and apparently keen to come aboard. Those names don’t appear among the series six cast announced below (though who knows about the planned follow-up feature film), but it’s obvious that Peaky Blinders has no trouble attracting serious talent. Series six welcomes acclaimed This is England, Boardwalk Empire, The Virtues and Line of Duty‘s Stephen Graham, and welcomes back Tom Hardy once again as the apparently unkillable Alfie Solomons. Both will appear in Peaky Blinders’ final TV series, alongside one of the finest British regular casts around. We’ll update this list as more details are confirmed.

Peaky Blinders lost one of the family last week with the death of “Aunt Pol” Helen McCrory, but the hit BBC drama series forged on with filming on Monday while paying tribute to its former cast member.

“Forever part of the Peaky Blinders family,” the show posted across its social media accounts, alongside a clapperboard illustrated with McCrory in character and the words: “Rest in peace Helen.” The image was taken by director Anthony Byrne.

A post shared by Peaky Blinders (@peakyblindersofficial)

Peaky Blinders has been lensing since January, but there is no word yet on how the show will move forward without McCrory. It is unclear whether she shot any episodes, but her untimely death will likely change the final arc of her character.

Peaky Blinders co-star Cillian Murphy was among the many who remembered McCrory last week. “I am broken-hearted to lose such a dear friend.

The Shelby family is hanging it up, to a degree.

BAFTA-winning period gangster saga Peaky Blinders is due to conclude after the upcoming sixth season, which has begun filming, producers said today. The news that Season 6 will be the last for the Birmingham clan is likely to be met with dismay by the rabid global fanbase, especially after Season 5 drew record numbers for BBC One. Still, after a long production delay due to Covid, there is solace that the team is back.

Created by Steven Knight and starring Cillian Murphy, the beloved drama first aired on BBC Two eight years ago before making the move to BBC One in 2019 with audiences of over 7M. Outside the UK, it airs on Netflix.

Knight says, “Peaky is back and with a bang. After the enforced production delay due to the Covid pandemic, we find the family in extreme jeopardy and the stakes have never been higher.

As filming commences on the sixth season of the highly acclaimed BBC series ‘Peaky Blinders’, it has been announced that this season will be it’s last.

Having become one of the BBC’s most successful dramas after starting life on BBC 2 eight years ago after becoming a huge international phenomenon, thrilling millions of viewers worldwide with the story of Tommy Shelby and his notorious family’s rise to prominence and power, against the backdrop of working-class, post-First World War Birmingham.

Creator and writer Steven Knight said: “Peaky is back and with a bang. After the enforced production delay due to the Covid pandemic, we find the family in extreme jeopardy and the stakes have never been higher. We believe this will be the best series of all and are sure that our amazing fans will love it. While the TV series will be coming to an end, the...

“Peaky Blinders” will conclude with the British period crime drama’s upcoming sixth season, which has just begun production in the U.K., the BBC announced Monday.

“‘Peaky’ is back and with a bang,” creator and writer Steven Knight said in a statement Monday. “After the enforced production delay due to the Covid pandemic, we find the family in extreme jeopardy and the stakes have never been higher. We believe this will be the best series of all and are sure that our amazing fans will love it. While the TV series will be coming to an end, the story will continue in another form.”

Representatives for BBC did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment on what other “form” Knight was referring to.

Set in Birmingham, England, “Peaky Blinders” takes place after World War I and stars Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, a powerful member of the Shelby crime family.

Hit BBC drama “Peaky Blinders” will end after its sixth and final season, but creator and writer Steven Knight has promised the story will “continue in another form.”

Hugely popular overseas, the series follows the story of Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) and his notorious family’s rise to power against the backdrop of working class, post-wwi Birmingham. BBC confirmed the show’s terminus on Monday, when announcing that it had resumed production in the U.K. under strict Covid guidelines.

The season 6 ending is something of a surprise given Knight previously told Entertainment Weekly in 2019 that “Peaky Blinders” would live to see season 7. However, a year’s delay in production due to the pandemic is likely to have accelerated plans to wrap with season 6, which will likely air in late 2021 or possibly even early 2022 depending on how quickly production can complete filming amid the U.K.’s ongoing virus crisis.

WME partner and literary agent Melissa Myers has been tapped to lead a new joint venture between Kinetic Content founder and CEO Chris Coelen and ProZiebenSat. 1’s Red Arrow Studios.

As president and partner of the new company, Myers will oversee the venture’s focus on premium English-language scripted television series targeted at both an American and global audience.

Exclusive: Former WME Partner and literary agent Melissa Myers has been named President and Partner of a new venture between Kinetic Content founder and CEO Chris Coelen, and Red Arrow Studios, the production division of European media company ProSiebenSat.1.

This marks an expansion into scripted for Red Arrow Studios company Kinetic, a reality powerhouse behind such series as relationship mega hits Love Is Blind for Netflix and Married At First Sight for Lifetime, both created and executive produced by Coelen.

The venture is set to focus on premium high-end English-language scripted TV series with both domestic and global appeal.

English-speaking scripted content has been important to Red Arrow’s production and distribution business, as well as German TV networks like those owned by ProSieben. Germany traditionally has been one of the top markets for U.S. scripted series. The venture also will tap into Red Arrow’s resources and Coelen and Myers’ relationships internationally.

In the wave of disruption, cancellations and postponements caused by the global spread of Covid-19, the production companies behind Peaky Blinders and Line Of Duty, both currently in production on their sixth series, have halted filming.

As reported by The Guardian, a BBC spokesperson confirmed that Peaky Blinders’ Caryn Mandabach Productions and Tiger Aspect Productions had suspended filming on the new series, as had World Productions for Line Of Duty. The decisions were taken “both in consultation with and supported by the BBC” in light of the spread of Covid-19.

“We will continue to review all productions on a case-by-case basis and will continue to follow the latest news and advice from the Foreign Office, World Health Organization and Public Health England,” assured the corporation, in a statement subsequently reported by Variety and Deadline.

World Productions confirmed the news on Twitter:

Exclusive: Coming off of its highest-rated run so far, the Steven Knight-created period gangster saga Peaky Blinders will begin shooting its 6th season in March. That’s after a move to BBC One last year and a first BAFTA for Outstanding Drama in 2018. Executive Producer Caryn Mandabach is the proud owner of the series that stars Cillian Murphy, and her Caryn Mandabach Productions has managed to remain independent amid a shifting television landscape and flurry of consolidation.

When we spoke recently, Mandabach felt it was important to talk about rights. In discussions with her fellow producers who have seen success, ownership is a main topic. “Everyone is feeling the heat,” she says. “No one who has already achieved success wants to go work as a producer for hire… The meaning of rights over time is if you’re careful and you own it, you are going to do right by it.

Jehnny Beth has released a music video for her recent solo track “I’m the Man,” which comes off the soundtrack to the fifth season of Peaky Blinders. The video features a spoken word intro from the show’s star Cillian Murphy and was directed by series writer-director Anthony Byrne.

The video is set in a glowing alleyway at night, with Murphy reciting a piece called “A Place Above” as the camera moves in on Beth. She performs the hard-hitting song as she makes her way down the alley, spitting...

Jehnny Beth, lead singer of Savages, has released a new track “I’m the Man,” which appears on the soundtrack to Peaky Blinders.

The aggressive, industrial song is one of three previously unreleased tracks on the soundtrack and was selected by series director-writer Anthony Byrne.

“‘I’m The Man’ is an attempted study on humankind, what we define as evil and the inner conflict of morality,” Beth said in a statement. “Because it is much easier to label the people who are clearly tormented by obsessions as monsters than to...

Season five of Peaky Blinders - which hit Netflix in the Us on Oct. 4 - is a wild ride, and the good news for fans is that season six of the show is definitely happening. The show's creator, Steven Knight, confirmed that at least one, if not two new seasons are on their way, and scripts for season six have already been written. Speaking to the Birmingham Press Club, he said, "We are definitely doing six, and we will probably do seven. After series four, it went mad." So what can we expect from the Shelby family in the future?

Who's In the Cast for Peaky Blinders Season 6?

Don't worry - Tommy Shelby isn't going anywhere. According to Knight, "We've talked to Cillian Murphy, and he's all for it, and the rest of the principal cast are in for it." That means we can safely expect the return of Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby,...

Peaky Blinders fans in the U.S. still have to wait until Netflix drops Season 5 of the epic gangster drama on October 4, but in the UK last night, the season drew to a close on BBC One with a series high 3.8M overnight viewers. The figures edged the record previously set by this season’s episode 3, and come with a higher share at 22.6% of the audience. Overall, the Cillian Murphy-starrer has been blowing away numbers from Seasons 1-4 which aired on BBC Two. The first four episodes of this season have averaged 5.9M in 7-day consolidated viewing across all screens.

When the season debuted in late August, Peaky blazed back onto UK television with its best-ever launch at an average 3.7M viewers in the overnights (6.2M consolidated). Before the move to BBC One this year, Peaky’s highest overnight was the Season 4 finale at 2.4M. The Steven Knight-created...

Netflix is bringing back Peaky Blinders for a fifth season and we’ve got a fantastic new trailer to share with you for it that is sure to get the fans pumped up for what this next season will entail. In the next chapter of the story, the Shelbys grapple with the 1929 stock market crash, and Tommy “confronts new threats to his power from younger family members and fascist rivals.”

It’s been two freakin’ years since Peaky Blinders Season 4 was released on Netflix and I’m so happy that we’ve got six more episodes coming our way soon! It’s been promised by series creator Steven Knight that this season will be filled with “shocks and surprises.”

Here’s the synopsis:

Cinematographer Si Bell was thrilled to learn he and director Anthony Byrne had been tapped to shoot the fifth season of BBC’s “Peaky Blinders,” but surprised to find out how free a hand executive producers Caryn Mandabach and Jamie Glazebrook were giving them to determine the scheme of their six-episode run.

“I expected to meet the execs and talk about the set look and all the rules and how they liked things done, but it wasn’t like that at all,” Bell says.

The series stars Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, head of the Shelby organized crime family in 1920s Birmingham, England. Loosely based on a real-life urban youth gang that was active in the nation from the 1890s into the early 20th century, the series jumps forward several years each season from the previous one to deliver a fresh narrative. For U.S. viewers, Season 5 drops Oct. 4 on Netflix.

If you've still not immersed yourself in the dark but beautiful world of the Peaky Blinders, it's about time you did. The British show, which follows the lives of a gangster family in Birmingham, England, after WWI, is available to Us fans via Netflix, and it didn't take long for it to develop a strong following. Season 5 will premiere on Oct. 4, and here's everything we know to expect.

The Cast

Cillian Murphy will continue to lead the cast as the charismatic Tommy Shelby, along with the return of key characters like Aunt Pol (Helen McCrory) and Arthur Shelby (Paul Anderson), too. As for guest stars, the last four seasons of the show have welcomed big names like Tom Hardy, Adrian Brody, and Game of Thrones alum Aidan Gillen, and this new season is no different, with Sam Claflin, Anya Taylor-Joy, Brian Gleeson, and Emmett Scanlan joining the cast.

The Director...

Nostalgia is at the center of Liam Gallagher’s new video for his single “One of Us.” The concept for the black and white clip was written by Stephen Knight, creator of Peaky Blinders, while the show’s season five director Anthony Byrne stepped into the director’s chair.

In the video, Gallagher can be seen walking through a sweeping field in the English countryside, where he comes across an array of childhood photographs at the top of a hill. The singer appears at several ages throughout the clip, finding...

Peaky Blinders blazed back onto UK television on Sunday night, scoring its best-ever debut with an average 3.7M viewers in the overnights. The Cillian Murphy-led series, now airing on BBC One, comfortably won the 9Pm slot with a 22.8 share, and peaked at 4M viewers.

The six-episode 5th season marks a move to Sundays and to BBC One from Peaky’s previous home on BBC Two, after it took the Best TV Drama BAFTA for Season 4. That run was Peaky’s most-watched, and the show the top drama of 2017 on BBC Two at a consolidated 3.3M viewers.

Because the Steven Knight-created series shifted networks this year, comparisons are not apples-to-apples. However, the 5th season premiere blasted past previous overnight launches which were led by Season 1 (2.4M average viewers), Season 4 (2.3M), Season 3 (2M) and Season 2 (1.7M).

Knight has told me this is the best season yet, and reaction out of...

It’s been nearly two years since Peaky Blinders Season 4 was released on Netflix. Well, after that long wait, Season 5 has finally been given a U.S. release date! The six-episode Birmingham, UK set crime saga will be released in the UK on August 25th and in the U.S. on October 4th.

I love this show and it’s about damn time Season 5 gets a release date! Series creator Steven Knight talked about the upcoming chapter of the story saying that it begins with the Wall Street crash of 1929 and the Shelby family “seriously affected because they’ve invested their legitimate money and are going to have to fall back on the illegitimate money.” He also promised “shocks and surprises to come.”

Netflix has revealed the release date for the fifth season of “Peaky Blinders,” announcing that the Shelby family’s crime saga will launch Oct. 4 on the streaming service. This is after the BBC One drama first airs across the pond, of course.

Here’s the official description for the Steven Knight-created series’ fifth season:

An epic, gangster family series set in the lawless streets of Birmingham, UK and beyond, Peaky Blinders follows the evolution of leader Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) from backstreet crime lord to legitimate businessman and member of parliament. It explores the notions that violence destroys lives, empires rise and fall over time, and class divisions are corrosive. Season 5, returning Friday, October 4th, finds the world thrown into turmoil by the financial crash of 1929. When Tommy Shelby MP is approached by a charismatic politician with a bold vision for Britain, he realizes that his response will impact...

Following last week’s news that Season 5 of epic BAFTA-winning crime saga Peaky Blinders will debut August 25 in the UK, Netflix has set its premiere date for the U.S. and beyond. All six episodes of the Cillian Murphy-led series will launch on the streaming service at 12:01Am Pt on Friday October 4 in the States and all markets where Netflix has the show’s rights.

Anticipation for S5 has been ramping up as the global fanbase eagerly awaits Peaky’s return, nearly two years after Season 4 which was its highest-rated yet — the trailer for the upcoming run has garnered more than 3.5M views since its unveiling at the end of July. The Steven Knight-created series is also coming back after it scored its first Best TV Drama BAFTA, for Season 4, in 2018 — a rarity for a show that many years along.

Season 5 begins with the Wall Street crash...

Few shows get the opportunity for its characters to invoke the series’ title in serious, hushed tones. Then again, few shows are “Peaky Blinders.”

The BBC released the first look at the historical drama’s Season 5, complete with plenty of the trademark simmering violence that’s powered the show to date. For this upcoming batch of episodes, that rage seems to be spilling over, as the fieriness within the show’s central group begins to bubble over into an ever-shifting early 20th century England.

Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy), fresh off a surprise win at the end of the previous season, now faces the opportunity to shape things from inside Parliament as opposed to the streets of Birmingham. It’s the late 1920s and the rest of the Shelbys still seem pretty content to do whatever it takes to assert themselves and their family in the face of an uncertain world.
