A newspaper clipping from the charred remains of a fire confirms that he is not due to die anytime soon, although many believe he is already dead.
The doctor that informed him of his fate, is in fact, a Nazi who runs circles with Sir Oswald Mosley and Diana Mitford.
His tuberculoma is in fact a falsification.
Tommy ends up confronting the doc, but after an exchange of words, the expected death battle doesn't happen with both men walking away.
The episode finishes with Tommy's caravan set on fire as instructed, signalling a new chapter for his life as he goes off into the distance.

Will Tommy Shelby return to the Peaky Blinders franchise?
Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy who plays Tommy will be making a return for the franchise.
Show creator Steven Knight has confirmed that a film will be made once series six ends.
While it's far too early to know when the film will arrive, the likely prediction will be towards the start of 2024 for it to hit cinemas.
Filming will begin in 2023 with details currently being kept under wraps.
However, as the final season of the TV series takes place in the mid 1930s, it is expected that a film would be set during the start of the Second World War.
Knight has already confirmed that both Murphy and Paul Anderson will reprise their roles as Shelby brothers Tommy and Arthur.
