Summary
Our latest guest on Soundtracking is Tom Harper, director of Netflix's Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man. Set amid the chaos and turmoil of World War II, it sees Tommy Shelby return from self-imposed exile to do some seriously anti-heroic work to foil a Nazi plot, among many other things. As you'd expect from a Peaky project, the music is sensational, and we take a deep dive with Tom.
