Apple TV+ has unveiled the release date for Slow Horses season 2.
The Gary Oldman-starring spy drama will land on the streamer on 2nd December 2022, meaning fans don’t have long to wait to catch up with the irascible Jackson Lamb (Oldman) and his team of MI5 agents.
The series is based on Mick Herron’s 2010 Slough House novels, and has already been confirmed for seasons 3 and 4. The second season will see the unearthing of long-buried Cold War secrets that threaten to bring carnage to London’s streets.
“When a liaison with Russian villains takes a fatal turn,” Apple TV+ teased in a synopsis, “our hapless heroes must overcome their individual failings and raise their spy game in a race to prevent a catastrophic incident.”
