Genres: Drama
Factual error: It's Christmas Eve 1925. Tommy and his son leave a mince pie for 'Santa and Rudolph', but there was no reindeer called Rudolph until the 1930s. The character's author hadn't even graduated by 1925, and only began writing a book about a red-nosed reindeer in 1939.
Grace Burgess: You think I am a whore?
Tommy Shelby: Everyone's a whore, Grace. We just sell different parts of ourselves.

Correction: Italians did fight in France and British soldiers did fight in Italy and in the Balkans alongside Italians, so many places where they could have met. Solomon never said he was killing an enemy, just an Italian.
