Since 2013, Peaky Blinders has proven to be one of the most masterful crafted dramas on television. Not only does it have a phenomenal script and spectral production, every actor gives a career-defining performance. Whether it's the late Helen McCrory as the acidic-tongued treasurer, Polly, or Tom Hardy's pontificating racketeer, Alfie Solomons, it's clear everyone is giving 100%.

But no one shines brighter than Thomas Shelby, portrayed perfectly by Cillian Murphy. Disillusioned and traumatised by his time in World War I, Shelby vowed to make something of himself and so, turned his family into the biggest criminal gang in Birmingham, the Peaky Blinders. The razor-capped gypsies may have started off as a group of thugs but it wasn't long before the gang was turned into a criminal empire and the name "Shelby" became synonymous with power.

But power comes with a price. With Shelby working alongside psychotic assassins, infamous mobsters, and unscrupulous MPs, his enemies outnumber his allies ten-to-one. With police, politicians, and rival gangs being conned and outmanoeuvred by Shelby time and time again, everyone is out for the charismatic gang leader's head.

With the much revered show reaching its final season, now looks like a perfect time to look at the series' protagonist. By the order of the Peaky 'bleeping' Blinders, you must take this Thomas Shelby quiz.
