The main actress is no Tommy Shelby that's for sure and the dialogue didn't do the cast any favours.
Maybe some of the cast are familiar to British TV fans? I'm sure I'll give it a watch when the next 6 episodes come out but this doesn't seem like a series that's headed for a long life.

Stephen Graham (Sugar) is very well known
(Snatch, Gangs of NY, Pirates of the Caribbean, Boardwalk empire, Peaky blinders ect.)
It not perfect but I enjoyed the show
