Slow Horses (Apple TV)

Surprised there isn’t a thread on this. Series about the screw ups of MI5 led by Gary Oldman’s character. Pretty entertaining spy/drama show. Three seasons, with the fourth coming out next month.

Looking forward to season 4. Season 3 ended with a ridiculously stupid set piece--I mean, writing of the worst order--but normally the writing is top-notch. And Gary Oldman puts in one of his best performances ever in this show.

Started watching it on @Stout's recommendation. Almost done with S1 and really liking it. I wasn't sure about it after the first episode but I'm fully hooked now.

Just an Oldman tour-de-force. As a former actor, that's the kind of role that really lets you chew the scenery.

Took a couple episodes to get me into it but ended up watching all seasons to date. Looking forward to new episodes hopefully soon

My favorite series in the last year. I took a train from London to Edinburgh over the summer and Jack Lowden, the actor who plays River, was on it. Sweet guy.

Neat! Was he hurrying to address an emergency that was entirely made up?

Enjoyable although sometimes ridiculous.

Haha! Didn't look like it. He was on the train with his now wife, Saoirse Ronan. They couldn't get seats next to each other, they were sitting in different rows. We were close to Saoirse, but you could tell she didn't want to be noticed/talk to anyone. Had her sunglasses on and wouldn't make eye contact with anyone. He was the exact opposite. They were both reading scripts on the train. Turns out they were on their way to Scotland for their wedding, as we read in the papers several weeks later.

I didn't know those two were together.
