Seconded. Superb drama and if you haven’t seen the first two series then I can highly recommend them.

You'll know in 2 episodes if slow horses is for you or not, it doesn't change much as it progresses

Well… I’m on to season 3 now.

It’s incredibly easy to watch, but more in a ‘so bad it’s good’ sort of way. Over-produced and under-written seems to be a real Apple TV hallmark.

I’m having fun watching it, which is a big thumbs up, but I’m sort of confused at the plaudits this show has received. I do feel for the actors though, this dialogue would take some real magic to turn around.

I don’t think the subsequent series were as good as the first one. There are some great bits to it involving the main characters but it’s more watchable in an easy viewing kind of way than really brilliant.

Absolutely agree

I haven't seen the latest season but it's certainly a good show up to that point.

Agreed that there's a drop in quality as it goes on. There is an inescapable problem that these are crap spies and yet, since they are the heroes, they must also be the best spies.

From the trailer it looks like there's a massive budget increase for season 6 which is needed as 5 was quite dull

And yet it seems to me that Slow Horses should be a low budget show, or at least a show that doesn't need anything other than good writers, actors and directors.

Maybe they could spend more on writing a good script if they didn’t have to rent every single landmark location in London. I assume even for the BBC that can’t be cheap.
