Understanding Finn Shelby’s Betrayal in &#8216;Peaky Blinders&#8217; Season 6 and a Possible Hint for the Movie

Peaky Blinders season 6 has ended, and with it, the whole series. The finale is
going to be in the talks for ages to come. A lot went down in the finale that
needs to be covered in depth. But probably the most shocking thing in the last
and final episode of Peaky Blinders was Finn Shelby’s betrayal of the family.

Yes! You heard it right the little Finn we all adored in the first season grows
up to betray the family. While the episode does show his betrayal, it leaves the
reasons unrevealed. Let us try to find out why he did what he did.


PEAKY BLINDERS SEASON 6: WHY DID FINN BETRAY?

The last episode was the best one in the whole season. Everything from the
beginning of the first episode till the last was just to make way for this epic
conclusion. After seeing Finn’s betrayal, we also understand why he was not seen
in the whole season. But the question still remains why did he betray the
family?

We all have our own theories as to why Finn betrayed the Peaky Blinders
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/peaky-blinders/], but since the show doesn’t
reveal much, we cannot say anything for sure. Many feel that Finn felt
intimidated by the entry of Tommy’s illegitimate son Duke.

Seeing all the importance Duke was getting might be a reason why Finn felt
unimportant in the family. This point can especially be highlighted by the fact
that Finn says, “I will come for you.” Pay attention to how he only wants to
come for Duke, not for Isiah (who was also present there) or Tommy, or any other
member of the family.

While some say Finn was taken aback by all the proceedings and he might now have
believed Duke. Isiah, his best friend, was there, who clearly was shocked to see
Finn betray the family. So his betrayal might be deep-rooted than we think.


FINN AND DUKE SHOWDOWN IN THE FILM?

We all know by now that a movie
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-the-film-i-know-exactly-what-its-about-peaky-blinders-creator-steven-knight-spills-some-beans-about-the-upcoming-movie/]
will conclude the whole series. That’s why a lot of things felt unfinished in
the series.

We all do not know the actual plot of the film but Finn and Dukes‘ new rivalry
will for sure make it to the screen. In the final moments, when Tommy is bidding
farewell to the family, he goes and whispered something to Duke. Now Tommy is
not the kind of man to waste his words.

Surely Tommy must’ve said him something that’ll help him in the future. We all
just have to wait and see.
