The release of Peaky Blinders‘ creator Steven Knight‘s new crime drama, A Thousand Blows, has been greatly anticipated since its announcement over two years ago, with hype only growing as we learned that the show would include the fantastic Stephen Graham as Sugar Goodson in one of the leading roles. While there has not been much shared with the public, we do know A Thousand Blows will follow the Queen of the Forty Elephants gang, Mary Carr (Erin Doherty), and her plans to use the success of bare-knuckle boxer Hezekiah Moscow (Malachi Kirby) to further her criminal enterprises. Stepping into the role of the antagonist is a rival boxer and gangster, the aforementioned Sugar Goodson, who tries to destroy Moscow.
