I love how they walked in sync to the nuns. The sound of their shoes against the hard floors, you can hear their fury in the thunder of every footfall.
fun little fact, in the late 1910s (when this show is set) hat pins women used to secure their hair to their hats were made of metal and often times sharpened and used as weapons. Which is what I believe aunt polly is using to threaten the nun
My gran stabbed me in the backside lightly to prove they were not to be messed about with. Anyone that messed with a woman with any hatpins were absolute idiots, those hurt!
They are still available Ladies!! Any decent Bead Store, not Michaels, will carry hat pin blanks that you can put your own choice of beads upon. Very stylish, if done right.
Which is why,in New York City in the 20’s, women,s hat pins were not allowed to be over six inches. Women were using them as self-defense and men didn’t like it
It means that she doesn’t let kids(people who are smaller than her) experience her rage. She saves it for people are grown and can actually defend themselves.
@@boragone Charles II: The Power and The Passion, it was a four part miniseries when last I saw it. I think it's available on UA-cam but if it is, it will be heavily cut up. There was an incredible amount of sex scenes, lots were cut but not all of them!!
That's right. He respected her. She was a surrogate mom to him, Arthur, John Ada, & Finn. I figure Polly and Tom were more kindred spirits, which is why they relied on each other at different times, even though they were at odds many times.
My mum was born in liverpool and made a Catholic. She told us kids that nuns were the most evil people she had ever met, and priests not much better. She hated the catholic church with all her might, and after having dealings with that church myself, so do I
@@Taospark I was just responding to the person who was glad to have never entered a church. Yes sadly these places existed which has nothing to do with nowadays churches thankfully.
@@Mysticgirl2412Have you never heard of children being abused even today in the Catholic, Jehovah's Witness, Mormon, Protestant, Evangelical and many other institutions connected with these religious organizations? Still happening.
At 3:54, when Tommy looks away, he's almost bored. Like you're watching a child who's not listening, and you have to raise your voice. It's not even anger, it's just an expression of "why don't these idiots just listen?"
Uh, dunno how familiar your are with Bonnie, but yeah..... little bitty woman notorious for how well she could handle a machine gun. They where ambushed because they where more afraid of her...
Yes, the scene is so strong with Kate Dickie's performance. Not enough credit goes to her as she is the perfect antagonist with the perfect amount /blend of superciliousness and final surrender vs the the fabulous PB protoagonists. Love this scene.
If it was ANYTHING that the Shelby family didn’t stand for, it was definitely crimes against babies. Ngl the Shelby family had their problems of power tripping, and being on the wrong side as well but, this was my FAVORITE scene.
I had the same experience but i finally realized that we are humans and we are sinners. I devoted my self for the weakest by the grace of God. A big hug ❤
Aunt Pol only had to speak one sentence at the beginning of the conversation and was immediately more terrifying and dominant than everyone combined. I would've loved to have seen her come back to pay them a visit lol. RIP ❤️
@@dkuhs They thought being a nun was their salvation & they had the right to mistreat people, especially children, with cruelty. They knew. nothing of the love & heart of Jesus Christ. These people were not saved, they were evil.
She’s very good at playing these holier than though characters that are justified in their own minds but fall apart due to their own flaws and arrogance. She does a fantastic job in the VVitch as well
Iam watching Small things like these which is a book but they made a film staring Cilian Murphy ! I was watching that film and immediately thought about this scene because Cilians character like like in that film and this scene witnesses the corruption of the Nuns that manage the church. In the film and book they show how women were kept there and mistreated poorly. Cillians character is a working class man with little hope in contrast to this scene where he dominates the church.
The true face of people of religion (not God). They can’t hear their own lies and hypocrisy or smell the stink from their own BS. Firm yet fair, compassionate but disciplined. Children need both but the nuns only cared about their status and funding. They were too used to the power they wielded within their own walls and church; they forgot that others wield more authority than the nuns did and held no reverence for their status.
That was a most amazing scene!!! Those sick nuns which none of us would ever question....it boggles the mind...were actually beating and trying to wash the black off of a child??? I know one thing Polly and Tommy were NOT and that was racist!!!!❤❤❤❤
I could only wish someone like the Peaky Blinders come for the man that beat me. He beat me, a tiny crippled girl, age 12 years. He beat me with no shame.
When Pol and Tommy worked together as a dedicated team they were an unstoppable force
facts
"You listen for my footsteps." Said like a BOSS!
Like everything she said
It's gonna haunt her😂😂😂
Was that coke he blew in her face??
Helen McCrory, working till the end. She’s a true legend. 😢
She was....😢
Aunt Polly was more of a gangster than the rest of the family combined
You've got to that right my friend. Recall how she killed Campbell
Right rip Polly
Yea she was. She's the one who ran the family. She was the true enforcer of the family.
I think I was scared of Tommy but I know I was scared of Polly
@roxyortiz8819 awesome way to put it mate 😬
I love how they walked in sync to the nuns. The sound of their shoes against the hard floors, you can hear their fury in the thunder of every footfall.
the sound of cold retribution approaches
fun little fact, in the late 1910s (when this show is set) hat pins women used to secure their hair to their hats were made of metal and often times sharpened and used as weapons. Which is what I believe aunt polly is using to threaten the nun
She used it to threaten Grace in season 1. So yeah, I believe it.
My grandmother did exactly that for defence & she wasn't a gangster
My gran stabbed me in the backside lightly to prove they were not to be messed about with. Anyone that messed with a woman with any hatpins were absolute idiots, those hurt!

"Yet unlike you, i wait until i'm matched in size." Woof! What a line.
What ever that means
means she doesn't fight people smaller than her, in this case children
dipshit
She only beats up adults, not children.
It means they wait until people are adults that can defend themselves instead of beating on children. You can't be this stupid IRL right?😂
It means that she doesn’t let kids(people who are smaller than her) experience her rage. She saves it for people are grown and can actually defend themselves.
That brought the hairs up on my arms. She was one fabulous actor. Effing cancer.
All of this was magnificently done.
FUCKING CANCER TOMMY
RIP Helen McCrory.
I fucking hate cancer so fucking much....
Narcissa Malfoy
One of THE best scenes in the whole series.
This scene. That part.
Masterclass.
That is SO well written, produced, filmed and acted!
These nuns never heard "f around and find out"
FUCK AROUND
'Well I fucking do'
Cold
From Narcissa Malfoy to Polly Shelby there was no doubt of Helen McCrorys talent
She was magnificent in the mini-series about Charles III!!
@@Phlowermomwhich mini serie? I’d love to watch it, she was a phenomenal actress
@@boragone Charles II: The Power and The Passion, it was a four part miniseries when last I saw it. I think it's available on UA-cam but if it is, it will be heavily cut up. There was an incredible amount of sex scenes, lots were cut but not all of them!!
Superb acting, doesn't get better than this
The fact Tommy was terrified of Aunt Polly!!
He wasn't scared of anyone😂
That's right. He respected her. She was a surrogate mom to him, Arthur, John Ada, & Finn. I figure Polly and Tom were more kindred spirits, which is why they relied on each other at different times, even though they were at odds many times.
Pol was nothing short of a complete badass 😂
Aunt polly had more balls than any man of this century can ever dream of .
My mum was born in liverpool and made a Catholic. She told us kids that nuns were the most evil people she had ever met, and priests not much better. She hated the catholic church with all her might, and after having dealings with that church myself, so do I
I'm glad my parents never took me to church.
That is just sad assuming that all nuns are bad people. It is not because I have met one bad person that everybody is the same…
@@Mysticgirl2412 The issue is how systemic and unpunished any abuse is within an institution like this when it was given power over children.

There is God and they're Peaky Blinders 🔥🙌❤️
The coldest line ever! Gahhh love Pol!
I think it was the best series I've ever watched. Helen McCrory was amazing!
Asserting dominance from the moment they mention the cigarette. Nice move.
I thought it was interesting that the nun didn't call this out until Pol lit up. Men smoking, acceptable. Women smoking? Scandalous!
YOU LISTEN FOR MY FOOTSTEPS!! BOOOMMMM!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
At 3:54, when Tommy looks away, he's almost bored. Like you're watching a child who's not listening, and you have to raise your voice. It's not even anger, it's just an expression of "why don't these idiots just listen?"
looking at that nun's reaction after tommy broke her glasses, i think that she was more scared of pol than tommy
Aunt Pol is scary as hell! :-O
She really was..
She helped raise the Shelby kids when their dad ran off on them, and the fully once their mother died.
Far and away my favorite scene in the whole series.
Just realized I am watching this at 6:30 in the morning
Bonnie and Clyde ain’t got nothin’ on Aunt Polly..
Uh, dunno how familiar your are with Bonnie, but yeah..... little bitty woman notorious for how well she could handle a machine gun. They where ambushed because they where more afraid of her...
Bonnie and Clyde were children on the way to death. These are grown-ups who put their problems in the earth when needed.
Probably THE most intense scene ever.
Pollys cheekbones are everthing
I’m a big fan of Kate Dickie. She’s a great actor. My favourite performance from her though, is in the video for the Sleaford Mods track-Second.
Such a sad loss when she passed away
@@paulhalforc1889Helen McCrory (Aunt Polly) is the one who passed. Or is that what you meant?
Thanks I'm going to go watch now 😊
First rule when being in a mob
Women and children are HANDS OFF
Yes, the scene is so strong with Kate Dickie's performance. Not enough credit goes to her as she is the perfect antagonist with the perfect amount /blend of superciliousness and final surrender vs the the fabulous PB protoagonists. Love this scene.
This was one of the coolest "Quentin Tarantino like" scenes ever!😊
More classy than QT's movies
God bless yuh,Moll. You are sorely missed.
If it was ANYTHING that the Shelby family didn’t stand for, it was definitely crimes against babies. Ngl the Shelby family had their problems of power tripping, and being on the wrong side as well but, this was my FAVORITE scene.
The most brilliant scene ever!
Best show ever ...
Best scene ever... Just ever
I love this part of the episode
Listen for my heels.....she dilivered that line as if it was a threat and a promise
My God, the fact that I've been abused by "christians" and this scene, just sent shivers down my spine...
I had the same experience but i finally realized that we are humans and we are sinners. I devoted my self for the weakest by the grace of God. A big hug ❤
thank you for distinguishing "christians" from christians. very strong of you to have the clarity of mind to see that there's a difference.
Love this music!😀
I fucking love Aunt Polly!!!
Aunt Pol only had to speak one sentence at the beginning of the conversation and was immediately more terrifying and dominant than everyone combined. I would've loved to have seen her come back to pay them a visit lol. RIP ❤️
There's god, then there's the Peaky Blinders.
This is done to good ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥♾️
Alternate universe where Aunt Polly and Tommy rescue Margaret, Rose, Bernadette and Crispina from evil Sister Bridget #iykyk
I was just thinking about that movie. Horrible stuff! The reality was probably even worse.
Survivors mentioned that, reality was so much worse, which is so telling. Poor women. That scene where Una is dragged back by her dad still haunts me
Literally haunted me as a child
What movie ?
@@mayhemmayhemmayhem The Magdalene Sisters
What a beautiful scene!!!
Absolutely brilliant.
Love this !! Those nuns were rotten !
Unfortunately in real life so very many were. Documented fact.
@@brendafuller907 True I went to Catholic School for three years as a child in the 60’s very mean and cruel the things they said and did . 😢
@@dkuhs They thought being a nun was their salvation & they had the right to mistreat people, especially children, with cruelty. They knew. nothing of the love & heart of Jesus Christ. These people were not saved, they were evil.
Ngl I'm more scared of the lady with the ice pick...
that was a hat needle
@@onetwothree9Perfect for poking eyes out, doncha just know!
Polly has always been my favourite since the start. She’s strong, wise, badass & sexy as they come. Incredible acting
The fact that she played polly and her real life husband was bobby axelrod on billions shows you what a real power couple looks like!
I just read that Helen was married to Damien Lewis (aka Dick Winters on Band of Brothers).
Wow😲
It would be really nice if he plays a role in the Peaky Blinders movie in homage to his wife 😢
I can never understand why this and other programmes are so badly lit.
Song Name: THE PEARL HARTS BLACK BLOOD
Aunt Polly final sentence is a top 3 gangster bars in cinema, no doubt 👌
Lysa Tully was always a bit mad
OH CRAP LYSA TULLY!!!! I SEENT IT NOW
She’s very good at playing these holier than though characters that are justified in their own minds but fall apart due to their own flaws and arrogance.
She does a fantastic job in the VVitch as well
Is that nun lyssa aryn from GOT
"Now put 'em on."
damn good show!
The lady with the knife is a verified GANGSTER, I literally had chills
Helen was a brilliant beautiful actress, taken far too soon
Polly scares me more than Tommy!
Hell with the Blinders, don’t fuck with Aunt Pollu
Polly*
Aunt Polly keeps The Pale Horseman in check so nuns aren't shit for her OG ways.
The Coldest Scene ever.
Yeah well Tommy and polly do, lucky to have Middlesbrough liveforever 🎉
What season was this? I can't remember!!!!
Name of the song please!!!!
Song name?
Good lord those two had an incredible ability to intimidate.

Polly is a BOSS!
the channel will grow soon, quality videos without shitty music
The best
She didn't learn anything from her time at The Eyrie.
Whats that songs name
the girl hung herself in fear of the nun. That is sad.
polly was a fu(king beast
Am I right in saying that the reason he blew the coke was to convey the message of ‘whats worse, a bit of powder or beating children?’
Eposide?
That was a most amazing scene!!! Those sick nuns which none of us would ever question....it boggles the mind...were actually beating and trying to wash the black off of a child??? I know one thing Polly and Tommy were NOT and that was racist!!!!❤❤❤❤
Our Sins 😢
What did he blow in her face? Was it the ashes of the child?
I thought it was drugs because during the series they keep them in those flasks
probably cocaine
It was cocaine
but who cocaine? what effect would it have?
@d.ch.9305 its probably the same as the cigarette, its something that they will feel uncomfortable and shy away from, establishing control
These nuns were horrible. Unfortunately in real life so very many were. Documented fact.
Aunt polly was badassed
There is God and there is the peaky blinders plus the stone fukin roses and oasis happy Mondays Rkid lucky boro fc liveforever 🎉
Awake speed save me save you therorys
❤❤❤😅😊
Fucking Gangster as it could get!
Thomas Shelby is the Boss ❤
What is the dust he blows in the nuns face
Cocaine
Cocaine
Cocaine
Angel Dust (Cocaine)
It's time the church pay for their sins, wouldn't you say?
Our Sins!!!!!!!
I could only wish someone like the Peaky Blinders come for the man that beat me. He beat me, a tiny crippled girl, age 12 years. He beat me with no shame.
