Jessie Eden is an important historical figure for her trade union leadership and activism.
ThePeaky Blindersfilm could feature a fictionalized version of this event, with the gangs financial interests at stake.
The overall treatment of Edens character throughout the show comes across as patronizing and misogynistic.
She certainly didnt need a man to save her, much less a gangster like Tommy Shelby.
1939 just happened to be Jessie Edens finest hour.
However, therell still be plenty of other surprise characters in the movie to get excited about.
