They say that blood is thicker than water – well, that is unless your surname is Shelby of course.
As Peaky Blinders season 4 heads past the halfway point, a dangerous new alliance was formed in the last episode.
After failing to protect those closest to him from an attack by the Italian mafia, some were still left reeling by the departure of Joe Cole as John.
However, things seemed to be slowly getting back to "normal" for Arthur Shelby in particular.
The Hollywood talent of Adrien Brody was once more the star of the show, as the former King Kong actor settled in among Blinders alumni like Cillian Murphy and Helen McCrory.
However, it was yet again that final scene that left jaws on the floor, while McCrory's Polly quite literally put the crosshairs on Tommy.
Thomas Shelby and his aunt have always had a rocky relationship, but was anyone ready to see Polly willingly offer him up to Brody's Luca Changretta on a plate?
With the rest of the family now seemingly safe but Tommy in more danger than ever, will next week's episode reveal it is all some elaborate double cross, or is Polly really lost to the enemy?
Either way, expect someone else to be sleeping with the fishes before season 4 comes to a close.
