But as an actor, it\u2019s just a really fun role to play someone so shocking and unafraid to do whatever she wants. I\u2019d just done a few jobs in a row where I played these quite anxious parts and it felt like a gift to have an opportunity to play someone who just has so much fun in everything that she does, even if what she\u2019s doing is obviously extremely problematic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In episode 3, Diana speaks of \u201cthe great cleansing\u201d to Ada who, like us, is visibly disturbed by her vision for Britain and the rest of the world.<\/p> <p>Anderson went on to tease what else viewers can expect from Diana in the second half of the show\u2019s sixth and final season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"&quot;x_xmsonormal&quot;\">\u201cShe\u2019s just there to disrupt and to make everyone\u2019s lives just a little bit harder,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd there\u2019s some really interesting scenes with Diana. I think people are going to be quite shocked. I don\u2019t think that the show has seen a character like her before because she\u2019s not using violence or force to get what she wants. And I think it\u2019s that ability to sit in situations and say these extremely problematic things, but so calmly and so casually, and I think that\u2019s what makes people very uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"&quot;x_xmsonormal&quot;\">\u201cThere\u2019s just going to be a lot more of that, and I hope some things that actually shock people because then it means we\u2019ve done our jobs properly in terms of the show. I think she\u2019s going to be a pretty hated woman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Peaky Blinders airs on BBC One on Sundays at 9pm and is available to catch up on iPlayer right now. <\/strong><span class=\"&quot;s1&quot;\"><strong>Check out our\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/&quot;\">Drama<\/a> hub for more news, interviews and features or find something else to watch with <\/strong><\/span><strong>our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\">TV guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The latest issue of Radio Times is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" data-auth=\"&quot;NotApplicable&quot;\" data-linkindex=\"&quot;0&quot;\">subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0to get each issue delivered to your door.
