Apple TV+ has released a teaser for its summer premieres, showing the first footage of the sequel to «Slow Horses» — a spy series about a department of misfit agents from MI5 with a boorish but very charismatic boss, Jack Lamb, at the helm.
Lamb himself, played by Gary Oldman, appeared in the only shot shown in the teaser — disheveled as always, and a bit scared. The main thing is that we now know that the series will definitely be released in the summer of 2025, and given that the fifth season was filmed in parallel with the fourth, we can assume that a full trailer will be released in the coming months or even weeks.
It’s your time. Spend it wisely.

The plot of the fifth season was not disclosed, but since the series is based on the novels by Mick Herron from the «Slough House»A lot of things can be predicted:The always cocky Roddy (Christopher Chung) may become the target of a hired killer, or the story will focus on a scandalous MP and his wife — a tabloid journalist who starts a war against MI5 while the service itself is investigating a series of terrorist attacks.
Earlier, Apple TV+ extended the series for a sixth season, and given the fact that how much attention it brings to streaming — should be expected in the future.
