Season 4 of Slow Horses earns a rare 100% rating: time to start watching

On September 4, Apple TV+ released the first episode of the fourth season of Slow Horses, one of the most realistic spy series in history.

The plot of this ‘silent’ hit focuses on a secret department of British Intelligence, where guilty spies are sent. The department is headed by veteran intelligence officer Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman), a true tyrant and espionage genius.

The events of the fourth season begin with an explosion in one of the London department stores. The police are certain that David Cartwright (Jonathan Pryce), the grandfather of the protagonist of Slow Horses, Rivera (Jack Lowden), is involved in the preparation of the terrorist attack.

The producers of Apple TV+ simply love this spy series – even before the fourth season premiere, Slow Horses was renewed for a fifth.

And for good reason. At this point, the fourth installment of Lamb’s story is perfect 100% “freshness” from critics. Rotten Tomatoes users also consider Slow Horses one of the best shows on streaming. Their verdict: 98%.

The series with the Oldmans is also a great success in Russia. Almost 20,000 Kinopoisk users gave it a rating of 7.7 points.

Recently, the third season of Slow Horses received a lot of Emmy nominations. Not only the series itself, but also the actors – Oldman, Lowden and Price – were in the running for the award.

If you’ve been putting off watching Slow Horses, the release of season four is the perfect opportunity to catch up on the show. Each season consists of just 6 episodes, so you certainly won’t get bored!
