The Slow Horses just keep chugging along, as Apple has officially announced that Slow Horses season 6 is coming just days after Slow Horses season 4 ended and they teased us with what’s to come in Slow Horses season 5. But there was more to the announcement than just an official green light. Some plot details teased exciting developments that will change the game up for the characters, but also a major tweak in how the show's been adapting the Mick Herron books its based on.
Here is the quick description of the Slow Horses season 6 plot that Apple teased in its announcement: “Season six sees the Slow Horses on the run as Diana Taverner embroils them all in a fatally high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge.” That’s interesting as it could also foreshadow a messy situation in Slow Horses season 5, but another detail adds to the intrigue. Slow Horses season 6 is being adapted from two of Herron’s books, Joe Country and Slough House, a change in format from the first five seasons.
