Slow Horses S6! Weekly release.

[MsAlignment]

Ep1 on Apple TV now. I’m keen to see all the old characters - but this review isn’t altogether encouraging:

Many moons ago, i walked past Kristin Scott-Thomas in Villiers St. We made brief eye contact, and she gave me a wee half smile.

I’m too cool for school, and never gush over celebrities - in their vicinity.
Meanwhile, I’ll tell that story to anyone who’ll listen!

<<scream>>
I'd have died on the spot. Or walked into a wall/tripped over my own feet, or something equally dorky. I just know she's one of those women who would bring out my inner dweeb to the max.

KST is so beautiful isn’t she.
It was so funny when Jeremy Clarkson was all dressed up when she went on Top Gear to drive the car in a reasonably priced car! He is a big fan. She is so graceful and so beautifully dressed in slow horses.

Like i say - any excuse to tell that story!
She was beautiful.

She really is so lovely. Her hair from the back reminded me of Diana’s hair ( lady Di) ! It suits her

It's really veering from the books, but I'm enjoying it.
I'm not sure how they will get to the ending of the 2nd book 🤔
Not sure the books were explicit about why flyte left MI5.

Now wondering whether Sid is the dodgy one after all? And I see that Jackson Lamb has been to the school of taking the gentle approach with children!

Imho they overdid the humour in this one. I’m also a bit perplexed as to why River’s hair is so much darker than before.

Lenny rush was funny. You could see lamb trying not to smile too much in tbe arcade !

I am really enjoying the series.

I love all the seasons. Problem is , I’m watching this season with my dh and isn’t as into it as I am and doesn’t like how Lamb is with people. He also can’t see the humour. He could go and do something else , but instead he sits there just letting it flow over him without getting invested and never got past season 2 before now
Anyway, I am wondering if Sid is now a baddie and where do you find pay phones these days ? Not an easy task is it.

Brilliant episode. I laughed in a few places with Lamb’s responses.

I wondered if Sid was bad when the two assassins turned up at the house because they'd said River was their next target, so when she said they were after her I wondered whether that was true. Also not sure payphones exist anywhere..! It may be too obvious for Sid to be bad after that setup though.

Don't read my post if you haven't watched last night's episode.

But they (baddies) didn't know who Sid was?

Dh and I both love it. I'm glad it's weekly like pp said.

I think Coe is fab. Hopefully he's going to be ok?

I had a feeling about Moira. Glad she's ok. I pmsl when they were in the shop. She'd make a crap spy 🤣

Confused a bit , did they have to kill Annie the owner of the house ?
So funny when they went to collect Louise at work. How they all just carried on after wards

I like Coe, too.
I am enjoying Slow Horses so much and think it's one of the best things on TV, despite the book departures and other elements that I don't enjoy so much, like the France bit.
I hope that Lamb stays this side of self caricature.

Lamb bounces off well with Tavener. They are funny.

I didn't see her die? I don't want her dead she's canny.

They drove her car I think, the yellow one.

I'd like to see moreof Annie, she was great.

Are the Russians connected to River's dad, Harkness or are there 2 different plots?

They just stole it. She's alive 🙈

They are brilliant in scenes. The one outside her house. So sharp. Plus the one in the children’s care home with the receptionist. So funny, she was great too.

Coe is playing Mr Collins in the new Pride and Prejudice. Jack Lowden as Darcy. It's going to give the thing a whole new slant...

Wow that'll be interesting.

Recently dh and I started watching a film that had the Coe actor Tom Brooke in it. We turned it off as he was weird and nasty. Film was going to be grim.

@beguilingeyes Just seen that's on Netflix. I was thinking of cancelling I'll keep it for now.
