    How far will you go?

    This episode prety much kicked off with a bang, as we are thriwn right into an intense situation with an uncertain outcome!

    Now we are reaching the point where there is consequences for the things Thomas has done so far, and where his enemies are ready to make a move on him!

    This about how far you are willing to go, to get what you want! How much of yourself sre you willing to sacrifice?

    This episode really reminded me of what a disgusting and disturbingly evil individual inspector Campbell is! Its really has managed to become person i hope will get what he deserves!

    Now.. the stage is set for an epic conclusion!

    Oh Polly

    This episode was mainly dedicated to getting ready for the battle royale of the season finale, but still some good things going on. Tommy surprisingly finds himself in a love triangle and Polly goes off the rails.

    Not that good but correct

    Overated episode , 8.8/10 guys ?

    No in this episode not a lot happened except Grace come back ( it was a very dissapointed come back) This episode really set up the finale, but so nothing really happen, just a solid acting and directing no doubt about it, thats why I give it 7/10 ( Best episode of Season 2 so far is number 3 ) PS: John just look like a tenn , i cannot take him seriously , he look like a 16 years old.

    Exceptional casting and story lines

    Character Character Character .. This is what makes a series in my opinion. Many thanks to BBC productions first and foremost .Anyone who took an instant liking to the Sopranos for more than gratuitous violence will agree, it's the contributions of the best and colourful personalities that makes a series memorable. Historically rich and at once intriguing, I found each episode more and more captivating, bringing the boldest of each sect in post WW1 England to a head, including and at most the Shelby clan. Again Netflix has grasped what it's customers value in entertainment essentially beyond the juvenile flare of Hollywood and its endless gusts of flash and hoopla best suited to teenage audiences. In this case I label PB Completely fearless and primitive, leaps beyond anything else I couldn't get enough.

      Thomas gets jerrycans for his trip. Jerrycans were designed in 1930. The word "jerrycan" originated during WWII when the British found German fuel containers in the North-African desert. So there were no jerrycans in 1921.
