If you watched the first season of Slow Horses – the hit Apple TV+ Original based on author Mick Herron’s award-winning crime novels – you'll know two things.
1. It follows a team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department after making career-ending mistakes. 2. It is an absolute triumph (currently rated 97% on Rotten Tomatoes).
Season 2 sees lank-haired insulter-in-chief Jackson Lamb welcome two new agents to the boozy fold: compulsive gambler Marcus Longridge (Kadiff Kirwan) and Shirley Dander (Aimee-Ffion Edwards), who is on her second stint at Slough House after punching her case officer... again. As ever, the ensemble cast is spectacular, with Samuel West as a repugnant right-wing MP Peter Judd, Kristin Scott-Thomas as MI5 DDG Diana Taverner and Jonathan Pryce as Cartwright’s despairing grandfather, David.
