Trailer for new Apple Original espionage drama "Slow Horses", starring Academy Award winner Gary Oldman, debuts ahead of global premiere on April 1, 2022". Apple.com. 2 March 2022. Archived from the original on 27 October 2022 . Retrieved 27 October 2022. The CWA Gold Dagger Award-winning British espionage novel about disgraced MI5 agents who inadvertently uncover a deadly Cold War-era legacy of sleeper cells and mythic super spies. In the dilapidated offices of Slough House, these files spooks spend their time on various pointless tasks, designed to break their will and bring about their resignations, avoiding the hassle, expense and bad publicity of employment tribunals. One of the first things to appreciate is that each novel is an underdog story – a group of individuals, under-qualified and under-resourced, who have to beat their better-off cousins at The Park to save the day. River speaks with his grandfather about Bough's death. David discusses the "cicada" theory of Russian sleeper agents embedded in British society, which MI5 dismissed as a hoax after no sleepers were found and discovered that the programme's alleged mastermind, Alexander Popov, did not exist. He tells River that Bough went AWOL in East Berlin and was assumed to have defected, but returned drunk. Bough claimed to have been kidnapped and tortured by Popov, who force-fed him brandy, but was fired. David dismisses River's theory that Bough's death was the work of the FSB or related to a conspiracy, but warns River to be careful. Over at Slough House, the agents are excelling at their specialty – complicating an already difficult situation.
