Published Dec 1st, 2022 7:02PM EST— is not your average spy. The miserable head of an MI5 outpost for washed-up spooks and analysts that the agency has banished to its administrative backwater, Lamb is a disheveled lout who farts, curses, drinks, smokes, delivers rude and sexist comments with gusto, and is largely dismissive of the colleagues he oversees.
What makes him such an interesting character — unlike the gentlemen spies and Jason Bourne kinds of figures who dominate — is that this mess of a man also balances his worst traits and interrupts the drudgery and lamentable existence of everyone at “Slough House” with moments of brilliance.Slough House, by the way, is the official name of MI5’s office equivalent of far-flung Siberia. It’s also the inspiration for the moniker ascribed to the agents who toil away there — Slow Horses.
In Season 1, Lamb and Diana Taverner — the stern deputy director-general of MI5, played by Kristin Scott Thomas — work together to stop a terrorist plot, credit for which also went to Slough House denizens like River Cartwright. He was an MI5 up-and-comer before he got himself relegated to Slough House on the basis of a single, costly training mistake.From Apple’s description of the new season:
In season two, long-buried Cold War secrets emerge which threaten to bring carnage to the streets of London. When a liaison with Russian villains takes a fatal turn, our hapless heroes must overcome their individual failings and raise their spy game in a race to prevent a catastrophic incident.
