We're only one episode into the sixth and final series of Peaky Blinders and fans are already posting their theories and predictions about what's in store for their favourite characters.
One scene in the first episode of series 6 has set tongues wagging on social media, with lots of Peaky Blinders viewers believing that the flirty tension between Tommy Shelby and Gina Gray is 'proof' the pair will get together in the near future.
Wait, what?!
If you don't believe it, watch the scene below:

One fan was left reeling after watching the intense rendezvous between Tommy and Gina and took to Reddit to air their grievances.
They said: "Am I the only one who felt a slight sexual tension between Tommy and Gina in the scene when he visits her?
"Just to be clear, I really DON'T want that to happen. I just noticed it while watching."
It seems lots of people agreed and took the original post as an opportunity to figure out what Gina's motivations are as well as what they think will happen next.
Gina is married to Michael Gray who has a very messy relationship with Tommy.
Throughout series five, Gina manipulates Michael into taking control of the Shelby Company away from Tommy. When Tommy rejected Michael’s proposal for the business, the pair were ousted from the family.
This makes Gina and Tommy's meeting, which is actually about Tommy's proposition for Gina's Uncle Jack who is an Irish-American businessman about drug shipments, even juicier.
One fan compared Gina to another popular Peaky Blinders character and reacted to the scene with: “She was clearly teasing him. She has that crazy Tatiana Petrovna vibe.”
Another fan agreed with the theory, writing: “Yeah I had the same thought. She’s definitely pretty wild but she does seem a bit more sensible than Tatiana- she definitely cares for Michael”.
A third Reddit user made a link between the scene and another scene at the end of the episode in which Tommy teases Michael about the fact Gina is travelling to London. “Haha isn't that how Tommy teased Michael at the end of the episode?” they wrote.
Other fans on Reddit supported the theory. One person wrote: “100 per cent it gets even more intense if you watch it a second time then you really notice”.
While someone else added: “That’s what I said lol I said that on another post l totally got the vibe that they were kinda into each other and tommy does cheat on Lizzie and he teased Michael about it so I think it’s gonna happen later into the season”.
There's only one way to find out...
Peaky Blinders continues on Sunday, 6th March on BBC iPlayer and BBC One.
