Slow Horses is Apple TV+’s highly-anticipated spy thriller drama revolving around a dysfunctional group of MI5 spies. The series stars Gary Oldman as the fractious yet brilliant Jackson Lamb—the leader of the dysfunctional group. His department, harshly named Slough House, is the dumping ground for spies who found themselves making career-ending mistakes. One particular member of the group, River Cartwright, was sent down to the unfortunate department after an embarrassing training mission. He and his fellow slow horses endure mind-numbing administrative duties and a miserable boss who expects them to quit out of boredom. The series follows the group’s efforts—and lack thereof—on navigating the espionage world especially after getting entangled with a high-class mission.
