Peaky Blinders

Season 2 generally

Continuity mistake: The first man to die in the ploughed field "execution" scene had the back of his head blown away by a gunshot. In the replay in next episode, his head shows no such effect.

Episode #2.5 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: The camera cuts between a wide shot and a close-up of Pol and Inspector Chester Campbell undressing her. Between scenes for the next minute, Pol's shirt is on in the close-ups but taken off in the wide shots. (00:24:40)

Episode #2.3 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: The bullets on the table change positions during the scene after they stopped moving. For example, when Arthur moves the glass, you see 5 between him and the glass. In the next shot, you can't see any of the bullets, even though you see the same area. They're back when she flips the table.

Episode #2.2 - S2-E2

Question: Was there prohibition in England? If not, why was Alfie running an underground distillery using a bakery as a cover instead of just having a legit distillery?

Answer: There has never been prohibition in England. There are many reasons for running an underground distillery. It would be a way to avoid things like government regulations, safe distilling methods, alcohol content limits, taxation, fix pricing, and so on.
