To say Slow Horses is a great show is to undersell it: I've just rewatched all three seasons with my eldest and marveled once again at the pitch-perfect mix of drama, comedy and pacing that makes it one of the best Apple TV Plus shows. If you haven't already seen Gary Oldman and his motley crew of sub-standard spies, you're in for a serious televisual treat – and the fourth season, which will start streaming on September 4, looks like it could be the best yet.
If you're already a fan of the most exciting, entertaining and often funniest shows on TV, the season 4 trailer delivers everything you could ask for: Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman) being awful, River Cartwright (Jack Lowden) being useless, Diana Taverner (Kristin Scott Thomas) being machiavellian and lots of things exploding explosively. But the most heart-stopping moment is just six words said by Lamb: "one of my team just died."
