Britain in 1919 is a tumultuous mix of despair and hedonism, a nation cleaned out by the extravagances of the Great War. Returning soldiers, newly-minted revolutionaries and criminal gangs all fight for survival in an industrial landscape gripped by economic upheaval. Thomas Shelby and his family run the most feared and powerful local gang, the Peaky Blinders. Named for their practice of sewing razor blades into the peaks of their caps, they make money from illegal betting, protection and the black market. But Tommy’s ambitions go beyond running the streets, and when a crate of guns goes missing from an arms factory, he recognises an opportunity to move up in the world. As rival gangs, Communist revolutionaries and IRA Fenians descend on Small Heath in pursuit of the weapons; Winston Churchill dispatches a ruthless police chief from Belfast to impose order on an increasingly lawless city and recover the guns.

Versailles, 1672-1678. The Franco-Dutch war wages on, Louis XIV confronts his bitter rival, Guillaume d'Orange. But danger threatens the kingdom, even so far as the court of Versailles into which a deadly poison seeps.

Louis has completed the first stage of his plan: to build the most beautiful palace in Europe far away from Paris, locking the nobility inside it and exercising absolute control. But the King has created a new and dangerous civilisation where courtiers are ready to do anything to get to the Sun. Behind a veneer of etiquette, they dream of ascending the social ladder to a world of wealth and power. Morality is waning, the poison spreads... Versailles is crumbling faster than it is being built.

Blinded by his affection for Madame de Montespan, Louis is deaf to the Church's injunctions. The greatest enemy standing before him is no longer the nobility, nor is it Guillaume d'Orange. The palace that he himself designed could become his worst enemy.

Wavering between mysticism and obscurity, diving into the dark side of power, will the king's downward spiral yet see his return to the light?
