5/5
... Despite the whole thing being an "anti-spy" thriller, this isn't Le Carré — it's a whole lot funnier. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Sep 16, 2024
Slow Horses” remains one of the most entertaining and well-put-together shows around. The motions through which it goes are good ones. Go to Full Review Camilla Long The Times (UK) Sep 11, 2024
It’s still utterly brilliant. Go to Full Review Jacob Robinson The Saturday Paper Jul 16, 2026
Looming over this season is the fascinating question: what happens when an ageing spy starts to lose their sense of reality and how quickly do they become a national security risk? Go to Full Review Marta Medina Pérez mundoCine Aug 15, 2025
4/5
It retains the dark humour that has defined the series from the start, as well as the espionage-thriller thread, nailing that ‘strange game’ between spies referenced in Mick Jagger’s memorable and catchy main theme.

And yet, in all its downtrodden glory, Slow Horses remains a thing of beauty. It’s hard to look away from a series that feels so lived-in, so utterly convinced of its own grimy brilliance. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Sharang L @Scribe187 4 days ago Continues to amaze. There's just no other show or movie that has managed to marry spy thrills with absolute hilarious sarcasm with such great results. Features probably the best villian of all seasons so far. See more Katherine S @k81000 Oct 13, 2026 Funny and never dull See more Lau E @Lauem Oct 3, 2026 A shame to use woke caracters... it become ridiculous ! See more Alex C @clarky45 Sep 24, 2026 Best series so far number 4 very much enjoyed! See more Jorge B @RT45672474 Sep 19, 2026 I had to stop watching the series when the first episode showed a group of working-class Britons kidnapping an Afghan man and holding him captive in a cellar. See more Matthew D @mdenman Sep 17, 2026 What sets Slow Horses apart is its patience and restraint. And in season 4 the payoff is massive and engrossing. The writer’s ability to make some characters so small and trivial to where they almost disappear from the storyline, only to be made essential at the perfect moment, is truly magical.
