5/5

It is supremely satisfying that the only head that rolls at the end of season five is Whelan’s, whose cravenness and stupidity finally catches up to the shameless opportunism that had brought him all the way to First Desk.

3/5

It remains very funny, impeccably acted, a reliable six hours of action and (in Lamb’s case) inaction. But it hasn’t gripped like the previous four years.

3/5

It’s a very productive season finale. “Scars” delivers all the elements of the show we’ve come to know and love.

Although Slow Horses disappointed me this season with self-centered analysis of reckless adventurism that recreated the callousness it was critiquing, the performances this season were on-point, as usual.
