Matt Roush says...
The brew is potent indeed — a cocktail of dynastic intrigue, political unrest, and violence — in Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight‘s lurid and in-your-face historical drama about the combative heirs to the Guinness brewing fortune. The eight-part first season opens amid the turbulence of 1868, when the Dublin funeral of patriarch Sir Benjamin Guinness sparks fiery protests from rebellious Fenians seeking Irish independence and anti-alcohol temperance activists. The fun really begins when the will is read, leaving four siblings — diffident eldest son Arthur (Say Anything‘s Anthony Boyle), ambitious Edward (Louis Partridge), frustrated Anne (Emily Fairn), and dissolute drunkard Ben (Fionn O’Shea) — at odds and in conflict like a 19th-century version of Succession. James Norton (Happy Valley) costars as Sean Rafferty, the factory strongman and enforcer who demands loyalty to a brand that has its sights set on conquering America.
