Slow Horses, Apple TV Plus
The Slow Horses team are now on their fifth series in less than four years, but their quick work certainly doesn't seem to be adversely affecting the show's quality, as this could well be their best investigation yet.
The six-parter sees geeky hacker Roddy Ho (Christopher Chung) dragged into a terrorist conspiracy, which begins when he snares himself an implausibly glamorous girlfriend. As ever, the strength of this grimy espionage thriller lies in the wonderful character depth of the Slough House misfits, especially Jackson Lamb, with Sir Gary Oldman playing the slobbish spymaster wonderfully.
