Taboo

Taboo, a new series on BBC One, from the creator of Peaky Blinders and its star Tom Hardy, about a man returning from a decade supposed dead to claim a politically problematic inheritance in 1814 London, setting him on a collision course with the East India Trading Company.

He may also have come back from the dead, or he may just be traumatised and seeing things. From the atmosphere so far, could go either way.

He’s bad news for all concerned either way, not just the villainous Company, having abandoned his own son and having some ominous secret with his sister, and stalking around the city in a Bill The Butcher hat and Nosferatu coat...
