James Jackson Times (UK) ... Despite the whole thing being an "anti-spy" thriller, this isn't Le Carré — it's a whole lot funnier. Rated: 5/5 Sep 17, 2024 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Slow Horses” remains one of the most entertaining and well-put-together shows around. The motions through which it goes are good ones. Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Camilla Long Times (UK) It’s still utterly brilliant. Sep 11, 2024 Full Review Jorge Cotte The Nation It's sleek, but not stylish; it's grimy, but in a cool, clean way. And though it's a show that relishes banter and verbal sparring, the action set-pieces are what truly draw you in... Sep 18, 2024 Full Review Martin Carr martincarr.co.uk After four seasons Slow Horses finally gets some Emmy recognition. This truly epic espionage thriller with Gary Oldman is everything a great series should be and more. With flawless source material and an epic ensemble, Slow Horses is storming stuff. Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) This remains Oldman’s show first and last, but everyone has a chance to shine. Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Kasia T Amazing cast, one of best shows i watched. Great storyline with lots of plot twists. Can’t wait for next season! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review Ricky H Terrific casting, Gary Oldman at his best as a totally disgusting lovable spy boss, a program to binge watch, stories are relevant to today's society Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/06/24 Full Review Tony P One of the best, if not the best show on TV at the moment. Gary Oldman's portrayal of Jackson Lamb is fantastic and makes this show a must to watch the added tension and intrigue draw you in and the character interactions are excellent. I would recommend Slow Horses to anyone who will listen to me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/06/24 Full Review Nigel C An antidote to the more run-of-the-mill stories that seem to dominate the genre these days. Dysfunctional relationships and the apparent absence of anything like an HR department together with an unsentimental approach (verging on the callous on the 2024 spectrum) to employee wellbeing are strangely refreshing. Whilst I confess to enjoying the books more, I think the TV series captures them admirably, I have no hesitation in recommending them and look forward to future series. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Audience Member Loved all the seasons prior to this but why have they made the women so weak in this season? Flyte can't even shoot a gun and she's head of the dogs? Louisa is cool but gets ignored, and Shirley is a coke addict? Shameful and weak weak writing Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/04/24 Full Review Willie C The fourth season of "Slow Horses" is an exhilarating ride that cements its status as a top-tier spy thriller. The plot is gripping and layered, filled with unexpected twists that keep you guessing. Gary Oldman’s Jackson Lamb is at his best, delivering a perfect blend of wit and vulnerability. The character dynamics continue to evolve, adding depth to the already rich storytelling. With its sharp writing and impeccable pacing, this season is a brilliant continuation of the series, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating what comes next!
