5x01 Black Tuesday

Uhh.. not really sure how I felt about this episode. Some thoughts:
1. Didn't really have any idea what was going on during the first quarter of the episode (mainly unclear as to why Linda was so mad and why that chairman business upset her so much?)
2. Gotta second Aid45's comment about that guy dying at the end... seemed uncharacteristic of Tommy, I feel like usually he'd just make the threat and leave it at that. (But I guess the journalist touched upon an extremely sensitive topic so.. I guess it makes sense).
3. It just feels so weird to see Tommy making speeches representing working class people when his family is the one profiting off of them in the first place and probably a large cause behind many of the grievances they're having (but I guess this is what many politicians in the real world are like, eh).
4. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised about Tommy marrying Lizzie following the end of season 4 but at the same time I'm disappointed because I still think May should've wound up with him </33 yes my heart is still stuck in season 2 lol
5. Didn't know that Sam Claflin was in this season! I love Sam Claflin! I also just finished The Queen's Gambit so now I love Anya Taylor-Joy as well!
6. Cool to see that Aberama is still working with the Peaky Blinders; I remember at the beginning of the last season they were wary of him cuz the Golds were alleged to be crazy but it's good that he hasn't wronged them in an extreme way (yet).
7. Wow Finn and Karl really grew up so much :pleading_face:
To be honest this was a meh episode for me and I felt like it was all over the place, but of course I'm still looking forward to watching the rest of the series.
