I feel bad for Shirley. I would’ve been very upset if Ho got taken out and I suspect him learning how to properly shoot will come into play in the future.
From the preview it looks like Shirley goes to therapy next season. That should be fun.

Lamb is also coming into his own. The scene with Lamb in Taverner’s office had him showing her he’s not the washed up relic she thought he was.
Not to be an arse but hasnt this been a theme and/or underlying message all along? At least it has been for me.

Did I miss something? Any idea who?
ETA: NM - saw Bluegrassbelle's post. Like her I totally missed the scene where he looked at the crowbar.

Agree with someone earlier who said Flyte is likely too good for Slough House, but also the whole point is people who had messups/bad breaks, and while she didn't cause her own....she fits the bill. They all punch above their Slough House designation at times.
Coe and Flyte were two scene stealers, and we're left with Louisa who just bitches and Standish with the same tired "struggle around alcohol" thread....if they had to kill some folks....they took the wrong path IMO.
But regardless, this show is so steadily great it suffers from it's own standard. Season felt way too fast and didn't feel like it had quite the same meat on the bones as other seasons, but the finale was solid. Outside the house of ladies bitching to each other scenes.

I wonder. Jack Lowden is still in the running to play the next Bond. Maybe this give them some flexibility if that happens and Lowden decides he can't do both.

The way Slow Horses films, I think it wouldn't be an issue for him. He was filming other stuff during this show as well.

Somebody mentioned he was filming Pride and Prejudice around the time they filmed season 7. He should at least be available to film season 8 before they do anything with Bond. They are still deciding on the actor and Denis will be busy with Dune press tour and Oscar campaigning until March.

They're currently filming Season 8 (some pics have come out that I have been trying to avoid). I honestly don't think it'll be a huge issue.

They might run out of books to adapt before they ever start filming Bond.

Probably the most realistic writing of women characters we've seen in a while. Like the WNBA - always tearing each other down. I'd like Belle's take on that

I'd probably be more like Flyte in that case. Just sit back, drink some wine, eat the fancy snacks and wait to shoot someone's arse.
ETA: I don't blame Shirley being pissed about that diamond. Especially with the way Louisa tried to just play it off like she was doing well out of sheer dumb luck or something.

At least Louisa took a nice trip to Bali and bought a nice car. Shirley would've snorted it all in a weekend.

That's a much more likely scenario

Listen, we can't all be perfect here.

I've also decided my DEI selection for James Bond is Roddy Ho. Playing it like Roddy Ho.

I was thinking earlier if they would have killed Ho along with Coe and Flyte, I may have gone ballistic - and it looked like they were heading there.

They can’t kill off Roddy Ho, he’s the lifeblood of the show. Probably the most competent slow horse left, especially if he is at his computer. Not quite as competent out in the field tho.

I turned to my husband and said, "I don't know that I could've handled Roddy dying.". And he said, "Right. That fricker has grown on me".
