Apple TV+ has shared a first look at “Slow Horses” Season 3, which will premiere on the streamer on Dec. 1.
Gary Oldman returns as jaded ex-MI5 agent Jackson Lamb, who runs Slough House — nicknamed “Slow Horses” — the place where disgraced agents bide their time while trying to get back into the big leagues.
The third season, based on “Real Tigers,” the third book in the series by author Mick Herron, concerns a romantic liaison in Istanbul that threatens to expose a buried MI5 secret in London. Naturally, Lamb and his team of misfits are dragged into the case, and, per Apple TV+, “they find themselves caught in a conspiracy that threatens the future not just of Slough House but of MI5 itself.”
