Slow Horses season 5 releases on Sept. 25th

I love this show. i hope it doesn't go off the rails with the politics. By nature the show involves politics but the ""sadly, topical" and "comments on contemporary British politics" makes me wary. Contemporary British politics could mean many things. Hopefully they stay relatively balanced and don't go off the deep end.

Going on to speak about season 5, he added: "Then 5 I love because Roddy Ho becomes more central, and it's great to see Chris [Chung] as he's grown and just owned that character. So that's been wonderful to watch, it's really exciting to be doing that.
"And then putting Ho together with characters that might not be able to cope with him - there's real fun to that. The plot as well is, sadly, topical, is the other side to that. It comments on contemporary British politics."
quote:
The official synopsis for season 5 says: "In season 5 of Slow Horses, everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend.
"When a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules - cover your back - always apply."

From what I’ve read they have already filmed season 6 and will start filming season 7 in September.

Yes, that's what is great about the show, they have kept a steady production pace and have kept up the quality. Hope they keep rolling.

If they stick to the books they'll be fine and I think they are. The fifth book sort of revolves around Roddy, so this seems consistent with that.

Hell yes. One of the quickest binges I’ve ever had. Such a fun and easy show to watch.
Gary Oldman is hilarious in this show.

You definitely should, they're great. Herron has written a few additional books that take place in that universe that are also very good.

They already got that in in S1 so hopefully it is out of their system

I think I've read that they basically film two seasons at a time.

I started to watch that show and the slam on British nationalists seemed to be on throughout.

Glad to hear this. I was very late to the game, a went through the first 2 seasons in no time; but put it on pause in the back half of LSU baseball season.
