Apple TV+ has unveiled the first official trailer for the upcoming season of Slow Horses. The dark comedy spy-drama is returning to Apple’s streaming platform later this year for its third outing.
Slow Horses follows a dysfunctional team of British spies who serve in the MI5 dumping ground of Slough House following career-ending mistakes. The intelligence agents frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world.
The series has received widespread acclaim since its debut in 2022 and has earned several BAFTA TV Award nominations, including lead actor Gary Oldman’s first for Best Lead Actor. The series is adapted from Mick Herron’s award-winning spy series Slough House, with the upcoming season based on the third novel, Real Tigers.

In the new season, a romantic liaison in Istanbul threatens to expose a buried MI5 secret in London. When Jackson Lamb (Oldman) and his team of misfits are dragged into the fight, they find themselves caught in a conspiracy that threatens the future not just of Slough House but of MI5 itself.
