We love a good spy thriller. Especially a show about Britain's MI5.
Well, you're in for a treat. The first two episodes of Apple TV+'s Slow Horses are available to stream now, and to mark its launch, the streaming service released the first 20 minutes of episode 1 on YouTube.
Starring Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Jonathan Pryce, Jack Lowden, and Olivia Cooke, the darkly funny spy drama follows a chaotic team of disgraced intelligence agents who've been shifted to the service's dumping ground, known as Slough House, for their sins. Oldman plays Jackson Lamb, the chain-smoking, straight-talking boss of the disgraced agents.
The series was adapted for television by Veep screenwriter Will Smith and directed by James Hawes.
The clip from episode 1 shows us how River Cartwright (Lowden) is ousted from MI5 for colossally messing up an operation. It's an edge-of-your seat moment that sadly turns into a career-ending error for the agent, securing his spot in Slough House.
To find out what comes next, you'll have to keep watching.
