I’ve only just hitched my wagon to Slow Horses – but I’m loving the ride

Although peak TV has officially peaked, there is obviously still far too much television. My job involves watching as many TV shows as I possibly can, and yet sometimes it feels as though I can only consume the very tip of the iceberg. Just when I think I’ve got a good handle on things, someone will send me an email saying, “Lou Diamond Phillips gives the performance of a lifetime in Not Without My Carrots, exclusive to the new Google Maps streaming platform, starting at just £75 per month,” and I’ll be back to square one.

What I’m saying is that we’re all bound to miss stuff from time to time. Even so, I must confess to feeling a little bit silly about having only just discovered Slow Horses.
