As we found out in The Gentlemen season two finale, Bobby couldn\u2019t have been the one who ordered the attack on Halstead Manor as he bought Eddie\u2019s \u00a3100 million debt. Although it\u2019s not explicitly explained why, there are some big clues – including from Ray Winstone himself.<\/p>\n

Earlier on in the Netflix<\/a> series, Eddie (Theo James) experiences a devastating loss when his new wife Bella (Benedetta Porcaroli) is killed<\/a> before his very eyes. Then, a team of mercenaries attack Halstead Manor and attempt to kidnap his nephew Tarquin.<\/p>\n

Eddie interrogates one of the surviving attackers, who appears to confirm his suspicions: Bobby (Winstone) was behind it all. Eddie orders a hit on Bobby in prison, only for Susie (Kaya Scodelario)<\/a> to deliver the truth.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven I thought it could have been my father,\u201d she says, to which Eddie insists it was. But Susie points out, \u201cHe bought your contract. The 100 million you owe to Uncle Stan, the morning of your wedding. He owns your debt.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, I don’t like that. It means he has more faith in you than he does in me. But my father is not interested in killing you, and he\u2019s not interested in losing \u00a3100 million.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eddie wants to know why he\u2019d do that, but Susie has no idea either. \u201cBut whatever history there might be between you and my father, there are a hundred million reasons why he needs to keep you alive right now,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re able to confirm it wasn\u2019t Bobby through some more torture, followed by a quick call to Uncle Stan (Giancarlo Esposito). Eddie then races to put a stop on the assissation. Not that Bobby needs help – he kills the hitman with a shiv.<\/p>\n

Gospel John (Pearce Quigley)<\/a> is ultimately revealed as the man behind the attacks, with Eddie\u2019s own brother Freddy (Daniel Ings)<\/a> involved in his wider plan. But that still doesn\u2019t explain the deal with the debt and Bobby\u2019s bigger picture.<\/p>\n

Why did Bobby buy Eddie’s \u00a3100 million debt?<\/h2>\n
\"Bobby

Well, the short answer is that Bobby appears to see Eddie as an investment – and one he thinks could become incredibly valuable to his wider criminal empire.<\/p>\n

After Eddie helps to save Bobby from the assassination attempt, he makes one thing very clear before walking away, saying, \u201cJust to be clear, you don’t own me.\u201d Bobby simply laughs, which is pretty interesting given he has quite literally just bought Eddie’s huge debt.<\/p>\n

But we get an even bigger clue moments later, when Susie confronts her dad about exactly why he\u2019s spent such a huge amount of money on Eddie.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat are you like, eh?\u201d she asks him. \u201cShivving fellow inmates, bribing prison officials, sinking a small fortune into a man who just hired someone to try and kill you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bobby insists Eddie has \u201cgot principles\u201d and admits he might have underestimated him. When Susie points out that Eddie is a pretty \u201cunstable stock\u201d to invest in, Bobby responds, \u201cNo, I’m buying low, babe.\u201d<\/p>\n

He then explains that Eddie is \u201cevolving as a human being\u201d and that he feels he\u2019s \u201cgot something\u201d. Susie questions whether he might actually be evolving into something much more volatile<\/a>, but Bobby doesn\u2019t seem particularly concerned.<\/p>\n

\"Eddie

\u201cWe need him,\u201d he tells her. \u201cAnd he f**king needs us.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, while Bobby never explicitly says exactly what he hopes to get out of buying Eddie\u2019s debt, he clearly sees the Duke as an investment.<\/p>\n

Eddie has spent The Gentlemen<\/a> season two becoming increasingly powerful and ruthless, and Bobby seems convinced that whatever he\u2019s turning into is something he wants on his side.<\/p>\n

And there could be another reason Bobby wants to keep Eddie so close.<\/p>\n

Ray Winstone\u2019s comments tease Bobby\u2019s real motive<\/h2>\n

In a conversation with Lifejacket<\/a>, Winstone explained that despite all the complicated power plays going on around him, Bobby\u2019s own motivations are actually pretty simple: he wants to make money and build his empire.<\/p>\n

The actor compared Bobby to the gentry, in terms of the \u201cskullduggary\u201d that must have taken place for them to have obtained their wealth all those years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy running his company the way he’s doing, he can’t have the emotion of love. His honour is the pound note really and building this incredible empire,\u201d Winstone explained. \u201cAnd whoever gets in the way, whether it\u2019s his daughter, whether it\u2019s family\u2026 I think personally anyone who gets in his way is out.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Susie,
Credit: Netflix<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As for the Duke, Winstone said, \u201cI think there\u2019s something about Eddie he likes. They\u2019re monsters he\u2019s created\u2026 His daughter, he\u2019s created his own monster. He\u2019s Dr. Frankenstein. But he sees something in Eddie that he likes, but it\u2019s also dangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n

That lines up pretty perfectly with what we see in the finale. Bobby clearly believes Eddie has the potential to become an incredibly valuable part of his empire, but he\u2019s also well aware that the Duke is becoming powerful enough to pose a threat of his own.<\/p>\n

So, buying his \u00a3100 million debt could also be a way of keeping Eddie close and maintaining some power over him as he becomes increasingly difficult to control. Eddie\u2019s \u201cyou don\u2019t own me\u201d certainly suggests the question of who ultimately has the power isn\u2019t going away anytime soon.<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s the small matter of Bobby\u2019s mysterious \u201cbig picture\u201d. Earlier in season two, Bobby makes reference to a bigger plan he\u2019ll reveal when the time is right, but by the end of the finale we\u2019re still none the wiser about exactly what that involves.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing to explicitly confirm that buying Eddie\u2019s debt is part of this plan, but considering Bobby has just invested \u00a3100 million in him and is determined to keep expanding his criminal empire, it certainly feels like Eddie could have a pretty important role to play in whatever comes next.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, we should eventually get some answers. The Gentlemen has already been renewed for season three<\/a>, and the power struggle between Eddie and Bobby looks far from over.<\/p>\n

After all, Bobby might think he\u2019s just bought low on a very promising investment. But if Eddie keeps evolving at this rate, he may have just spent \u00a3100 million helping to create his biggest competition.<\/p>\n

If it\u2019s dark, disturbing or dominating Netflix, Daisy is probably already writing about it.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/DaisyWebb77"],"jobTitle":"Editor at Film Shrine","url":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/author\/daisythetab-com\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/filmshrine.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/09\/the-gentlemen-season-2-netflix-why-bobby-bought-eddies-debt-ray-winstone-teases-motive\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Why Bobby bought Eddie’s debt in The Gentlemen finale as Ray Winstone teases his real motive","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/09\/the-gentlemen-season-2-netflix-why-bobby-bought-eddies-debt-ray-winstone-teases-motive\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/2026\/09\/09\/the-gentlemen-season-2-netflix-why-bobby-bought-eddies-debt-ray-winstone-teases-motive\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/09\/16-1-150x150.jpg","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/09\/16-1.jpg"},"articleSection":"Explained","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Daisy Phillipson"}],"creator":["Daisy Phillipson"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Film Shrine","logo":"https:\/\/cdn.filmshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png"},"keywords":["netflix","now showing","the gentlemen","tv"],"dateCreated":"2026-09-09T15:01:13Z","datePublished":"2026-09-09T15:01:13Z","dateModified":"2026-09-09T21:53:17Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"wp-parsely-metadata\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Why Bobby bought Eddie’s debt in The Gentlemen finale as Ray Winstone teases his real motive\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/09\\\/the-gentlemen-season-2-netflix-why-bobby-bought-eddies-debt-ray-winstone-teases-motive\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/thetab.com\\\/filmshrine\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/09\\\/the-gentlemen-season-2-netflix-why-bobby-bought-eddies-debt-ray-winstone-teases-motive\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/16-1-150x150.jpg\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/09\\\/16-1.jpg\"},\"articleSection\":\"Explained\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Daisy Phillipson\"}],\"creator\":[\"Daisy Phillipson\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"Film Shrine\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/cdn.filmshrine.com\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/04\\\/cropped-The-Tab_Film-Shrine_Favicon.png\"},\"keywords\":[\"netflix\",\"now showing\",\"the gentlemen\",\"tv\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2026-09-09T15:01:13Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-09-09T15:01:13Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-09-09T21:53:17Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/filmshrine.com\/p.js"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8808","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8808"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8808\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8847,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8808\/revisions\/8847"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8819"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8808"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8808"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8808"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thetab.com\/filmshrine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=8808"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
