One of Apple’s most successful British shows, Slow Horses, returns today for season three on Apple TV+ with a two-episode premiere. The remainder of the season rolls out weekly. Based on the books by Mick Herron, Slow Horses follows a department of MI5 reject spies led by Jackson Lamb (played by Gary Oldman).
Slow Horses is a blend of action spy drama and black comedy, with Jackson Lamb pulling out some denigrating one-liners as ‘motivation’ for his reject recruits.
The third season of the series is based on the events of the book ‘Real Tigers’ and sees Catherine Standish kidnapped, and it is the responsibility of the rest of the slow horses to find her while she is still alive.
The cast is led by Gary Oldman, Jack Lowden, Kristen Scott Thomas, and more. Season three has received strongly positive critical reviews, topping the generally warm reception of the prior two seasons. Fans will also be happy to know that Slow Horses has already been renewed for a fourth season, which will likely debut sometime next year.
