'Slow Horses' renewed for 7th season

Apple TV+ confirms Season 7 of the Emmy-winning spy drama Slow Horses starring Gary Oldman as Jackson Lamb.

"The misfits on the run find themselves in a high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge. – Variety"

Los Angeles, July 8

Apple TV+ has greenlit the seventh season of the darkly comedic spy drama 'Slow Horses'.

As per Variety, the Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning series, based on Mick Herron's hit novels, stars Gary Oldman as the intractable and slovenly Jackson Lamb, who leads a band of MI5 rejects nicknamed the "slow horses" including River Cartwright (Jack Lowden), Roddy Ho (Christopher Chung), Louisa Guy (Rosalind Eleazar) and Catherine Standish (Saskia Reeves).

The pack ends up in Slough House where they frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world.

The premiere of season 5 is slated for September 24. The sixth season, announced last year, sees the misfits on the run as they find themselves embroiled in a high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge thanks to frenemy Taverner.

The seventh season is adapted for television and executive produced by Ben Vanstone, with Robert McKillop set to direct.

The third season earned nine Primetime Emmy Award nominations, with a win for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series. ANI)

So happy to hear this news! Slow Horses is one of the few Western shows that actually understands subtle humor. The characters feel so real - not like those typical perfect spy dramas. Though I wish they'd release all episodes at once like Netflix does.

Season 7 already? That's amazing! But I hope they maintain the quality. Some shows start strong but lose their charm after so many seasons (looking at you, Money Heist). The writing needs to stay sharp - no lazy plots please!

As someone who's read all the books, I'm impressed with how faithful the adaptation is. The casting is perfect - especially Rosalind Eleazar as Louisa. Wish more Indian streaming platforms would make shows with this level of writing quality.

Good show but Apple TV+ is too expensive for Indian audiences. ₹99 per month would be reasonable, not ₹299. They should consider regional pricing like other platforms. Content is great but accessibility matters too!

The chemistry between the cast members is what makes this show special. It's not just about the spies - it's about this dysfunctional family they've created. Reminds me of my own crazy office colleagues! 😅
