Apple TV+ renews Slow Horses for fifth season

January 2, 2024 by Gary Collinson

Following the conclusion of its third season, Apple TV+ has announced that its BAFTA-nominated espionage drama Slow Horses for a fifth season, which will adapt author Mick Herron’s fifth Slough House book London Rules.

In season five of Slow Horses, “everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Jackson Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, ‘London Rules’ should always apply.”

Premiering in 2002, Slow Horses sees Oscar-winner Gary Oldman leading the cast of the series as Jackson Lamb, the leader of a MI5 dumping ground department known un-affectionately as Slough House, and also stars Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Christopher Chung, Samuel West, Sophie Okonedo, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Kadiff Kirwan and Jonathan Pryce.
