  - Hello, I'm Olivia.
• 0:08
  - And I'm Shauna.
• 0:10
  - And this is your PCJ Pop for the Week.
• 0:13
  So over the last few weeks,
• 0:16
  I have been absolutely sucked into the world
• 0:19
  of 1919 Birmingham, England,
• 0:22
  watching Peaky Blinders.
• 0:25
  - Peaky Blinders.
• 0:26
  The Peaky Blinders.
• 0:28
  - Is Blinders that a Peaky?
• 0:31
  - Peaky little blinders.
• 0:33
  Yeah, I can't stop doing that.
• 0:35
  It is a gangster family epic set
• 0:38
  in Birmingham, England in 1919.
• 0:41
  It's centered on a gang who sow razor blades
• 0:45
  into the peaks of their caps
• 0:47
  and it follows the gang boss Tommy Shelby.
• 0:52
  It has the ever iconic Cillian Murphy in it.
• 0:56
  - He's so hot in the show.
• 0:57
  - Oh, God, I know.
• 0:59
  I really missed the wave of Peaky Blinders
• 1:03
  when it was coming out.
• 1:04
  One thing about me is I hate those fuck ass hats so much.
• 1:08
  (laughing)
• 1:09
  I'm like, if you wear a newsboy cap in front of me today,
• 1:14
  - No, fuck the fuck is wrong with you.
• 1:15
  - You're done.
• 1:16
  - I used to love a newsboy cap in like the 2000s though.
• 1:20
  - Oh, I'm not.
• 1:20
  - 2005 Shona looked great in a newsboy's cap.
• 1:24
  - Okay, maybe you did, but on a man.
• 1:27
  - Absolutely not.
• 1:28
  - Yeah, no, not a man.
• 1:30
  - Cillian Murphy in 1919 could get it.
• 1:33
  Let me tell you, I know he wasn't born,
• 1:36
  but this version of him.
• 1:37
  (laughing)
• 1:39
  So yeah, he is so good looking in this.
• 1:43
  He's so hot.
• 1:44
  Like he's a little bit evil.
• 1:47
  Definitely a morally gray character here.
• 1:50
  - And a bad boy.
• 1:52
  - Honestly, I am sad because I'm watching it with Blake
• 1:56
  and I can't, like if he's not here,
• 1:57
  I can't go ahead and watch it.
• 1:59
  - God damn it.
• 2:00
  See, that's the way we don't get boyfriends.
• 2:02
  - And we don't get husbands.
• 2:04
  - Yeah, and what's your husband?
• 2:05
  So, but it is absolutely enthralled me
• 2:09
  and I haven't really had a show that has captured,
• 2:13
  captured my attention like this in a long time.
• 2:16
  And so I would say watch it.
• 2:18
  It is six seasons, but each season is like six episodes.
• 2:23
  - I'm gonna have to start from the beginning.
• 2:25
  - Andrew watched it, so I'm catching it over his shoulder
• 2:27
  every once in a while, but maybe all.
• 2:29
  - It's so good at the start of the beginning.
• 2:31
  - Have to watch it.
• 2:32
  It's on Netflix and a new movie just came out.
• 2:36
  Obviously I haven't seen it
• 2:37
  'cause I haven't finished the show yet,
• 2:39
  but I am quite excited to see that.
• 2:42
  So yeah, I'm gonna pop Peaky Blinders on Netflix.
• 2:46
  And that's it for PCJ Pop.
