If you’re eager to meet hapless River, irritating Rody, depressed Catherine and loathsome Jackson Lamb again, we’ve got good news: the Slough House spy team returns in September.
Slow Horses, the spy series based on Mick Herron’s novel series, is one of the most exciting productions on Apple TV+. The British show offers a real treat for spy fans, very different from the bombastic adventures of James Bond or Ethan Hunt.
