Slow Horses follows a team of outcasts in the British intelligence community that have been relegated to a forgotten corner of MI5 known as Slough House. Oldman stars as team leader Jackson Lamb, with a supporting cast highlighted by Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden and Jonathan Pryce. Additionally, Nick Mohammed (Ted Lasso) will make a special guest-star appearance in Season 5.
As Season 5 begins, 'everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected,' per the official synopsis. 'After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules — cover your back — always apply.'
Debuting in April 2022, Slow Horses has won critical acclaim across its four seasons, including Emmy nominations last year for best drama series and best lead actor in a drama for Oldman. (The series won an Emmy in 2024 for best writing in a drama.) With the debut of Season 5, it will have aired five seasons in about three and a half calendar years — a true achievement in today's TV landscape. (To illustrate the point, the fourth and most recent season of Stranger Things aired just a month after Slow Horses' first season.)

The best streaming deals for the week: Find out how to save on YouTube TV, ESPN+ and more
With so many streaming services out there, it can be overwhelming from both a content perspective (so many original shows to binge! And why do the biggest ones always seem to drop at once?) and a budgetary one (so many monthly fees!). If you're trying to find ways to make your monthly bills a little less painful though, you've got a few options. There are all kinds of streaming bundles available right now, so whether you're interested in the best deals on live sports, the best way to watch all your favorite shows, or some combination of both, we can help. (And help save you money in the process.) This week, there are tons of great deals to choose from. From discounts on YouTube TV to sports subscriptions like ESPN+, DAZN, there's something for everyone, and it's all on sale. Oh, and if you think there are no discounts for Netflix, we've got the scoop on how to subscribe to them for less, too. We've narrowed down a list of the best streaming bundles and deals in one place so you can decide which one works best for your viewing habits. Among the best streaming deals this week, you can subscribe to Starz for just $3 per month, get a deal on YouTube TV, or snag a great discount on DIRECTV. If you're a student (and aren't already on a family streaming plan), a few services offer great limited-time discounts, including Max, which offers 50% off their ad-supported plan (so you'll pay $4.99, though the offer is only good for one 12-month period), and Peacock, which costs students $2.99/month. (And note that you can often find a similar deal on Peacock around Black Friday even if you're not a student.) But the best streaming offer for students might just be Hulu's: They offer students a rate of just $1.99/month for as long as you offer proof of enrollment. Some of the best discounts around aren't through special sales, they're through your cell phone provider. T-Mobile offers discounts or free subscriptions to Apple TV+, Hulu, and Netflix (Standard with Ads), Verizon offers discounted $10 subscriptions to the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle, a Netflix/Max bundle, and YouTube Premium, and select Cricket Wireless plans get Max (with Ads) for free. If you have or want to switch to Xfinity for your internet or cable provider, you can add a $15 streaming bundle into the mix, the Xfinity Streamsaver bundle, which includes three streamers putting out some of the best original content around: Apple TV+, Netflix (Standard with ads) and Peacock. Xfinity internet plans start at $30/month, bringing your total for the Streamsaver bundle to $45/month (that's $10 of savings vs. subscribing to all those services individually). If you're a Spectrum customer, there's a similar cable and streaming bundle available as well and it won't even cost you anything: If you subscribe to Spectrum and opt for a TV Select cable plan or higher, you'll receive free ad-supported subscriptions to Disney+, ViX, Paramount+, as well as Max, which was just recently added to their offerings.

Ginny and Georgia season 3 ending explained: Theories on what will happen after cliffhanger
*Spoilers alert* Cancel all your weekend plans. Ginny & Georgia series three just dropped, and it's the most binge-worthy season of all. To quickly recap, series two ended with Georgia getting arrested for the murder of Tom Fuller. In peak Netflix drama fashion, the police crashed her wedding to Mayor Paul Randolph and read Georgia her rights during their first dance. As for the final scenes? They closed the show with Georgia at the police station, having her mugshots taken in her wedding dress. Now, with 10 new episodes picking up right where things left off (plus plenty of other intense subplots), there is *so* much to unpack. From whether or not Georgia is convicted of the crime, to where her relationship with Paul stands, the season three content makes for a pretty epic finale. Carry on reading to find out what happens at the end of Ginny & Georgia series three. Sarah Lampert, Ginny & Georgia's creator, recently spoke to Deadline about the series in general and the bombshell ending. She said: "For season three, the question I asked is, 'What would it take to break Georgia?' And I mean that coming from a place of love for Georgia, because I think she needs to break to build. So season 3 was about getting her to a place of being able to build her back differently in season 4." With that, as the season progresses, we see Georgia grapple with her new reality: that she actually might get sent to prison for her crimes. Or at least just one of them. If you remember, at the end of episode four, Gabriel, the private investigator hired to expose Georgia's secrets in series two, tells the jury that he thinks they're dealing with a serial killer. And of course, he's not wrong. But in true Georgia style, she finds a way to potentially change her fate. With the help of Ginny (who makes more questionable decisions than ever this season), the mother-daughter duo convince Georgia's younger son, Austin, to pin the murder on his dad, Gil. Ginny tells her brother that if their mother goes to prison, Gil, who has a history of being abusive, is going to move him away to Michigan. As Ginny puts it, he has to "choose between his mom and his dad" going to prison. After showing Austin a bruise on her arm inflicted by Gil, Georgia adds: "It's a murder trial, we have to give them a murderer." They also create a motive: that Austin overheard Georgia and Cynthia (Tom's wife) talking about how they blocked Gil's apartment application, so that he could be closer to his son. (For those who remember, this is partially true - Cynthia made it happen after witnessing Gil become violent toward Georgia at their kids' school.) Ultimately, Austin decides that he doesn't want to be split from Ginny and Georgia, and takes the stand as the only witness. He commits perjury, telling the jury that Gil was the person responsible for killing Tom. Prior to this, Ginny also convinces Cynthia to go along with this story. At first, Cynthia rejects the idea, but after Ginny blackmails her - she says she has evidence of her and Joe's affair on the cameras at Blue Farm - she concedes. After lying to the jury, Cynthia finds out that Ginny was also lying: the cafe doesn't have cameras, so she couldn't physically prove their affair. Because of this, at the end of the season, we see Georgia walk free. Cue a potential storyline where Cynthia seeks revenge on Ginny. Despite Georgia skipping jail time, the whole charade takes its toll on Paul. And when Georgia makes a truly unforgivable decision - telling Paul she's pregnant with Ginny's positive pregnancy test, which is a whole other story - he finally divorces her. But here's the twist. During the final moments of the last episode, Georgia drinks from a regular milk bottle. Though this sounds like an insignificant detail, Ginny reminds her that this was one of her pregnancy symptoms. The only problem? We don't know who the father is, because Georgia had slept with Paul and Joe around the same time. Err, major cliffhanger alert. In another turn of events, Lampert explained: "I know whose baby she's carrying, but I went into the writer's room this season and I said, 'Here's who the daddy is,'" before changing her mind. The creator also said that Georgia is "single as a Pringle" at the end of the season. As for Ginny, who fell pregnant with Wolfe's baby (the guy from her poetry class), the season ends with her dealing with her relationship with Marcus. During the 10 episodes, we see Marcus struggling with depression and addiction, alongside his on-and-off relationship with Ginny. Though the pair confess their love to each other, Ginny realises that she needs to let Marcus focus on himself before they can be together. We already know that Ginny & Georgia was renewed for season four. So right now, it's unclear whether a season five is on the horizon. However, Lampert said that there is still so much story left to tell. She revealed: "I always thought it would end at season four, just because I knew what the ending was, let's say. But what we're finding in the writers' room for this season is that there's actually more there. "It would almost feel rushed to get to that ending for it to happen in four [seasons]. I'm not Netflix. I can't control whether or not there's a season five, but I would say what we discovered very early on is, oh, there's more story here." Oh, you're killing us here!

What did Nick tell Paul in episode 3 of Ginny & Georgia season 3?
*Spoilers alert* Ginny & Georgia fans, season three is *finally* here. After what seems like forever (specifically over two years), our favourite chaotic mother and daughter duo are back. And this time, things are a lot more intense. For those who need a little refresher, season two ended with Georgia getting arrested for the murder of Tom Fuller... On her wedding day... Where she was marrying the mayor. Dramatic, we know. Which meant that season three was obviously going to revolve around the aftermath, and whether or not she's found guilty of the crime. During episode three, there's a brief - but important - scene between Paul Randolph (the mayor and Georgia's new hubby) and Nick Throop, his assistant. While in Paul's office, Nick seemingly discloses some serious (and potentially incriminating) information about Georgia. Although viewers are intentionally not privy to the conversation, it's clear from Paul's expression that it's not the news he was expecting to hear. Unfortunately, the exact discussion is never revealed. But for the ultimate Ginny & Georgia sleuths, it's not hard to figure out. Cast your mind back to the previous seasons, when Nick meets 'Jesse,' a real estate agent new to Wellsbury. The two embark on a relationship, but it's not long before Nick discovers Jesse's true identity: he's a private investigator named Gabriel, hired to infiltrate Georgia's inner circle and expose her secrets. As the pair grow closer, Gabriel shares his findings with Nick, who becomes more sceptical of Georgia, and is eventually a key figure in her arrest. Fast forward to season three now, and after Nick's bombshell, Paul has been acting distant with Georgia. Previously, he had been adamant his wife was innocent, working tirelessly to clear her name. So why have things now changed? During the beginning of Georgia's trial at the end of episode four, Gabriel is called as a witness for the prosecution, much to her surprise. The scene ends with Gabriel declaring to the jury that he thinks they're dealing with a serial killer, having reason to suspect Georgia murdered her last two husbands. (If you remember, he was actually hired by Kenny's ex-wife - Georgia's second husband - to look into his death.) So, when you think back to Paul's closed-off behaviour towards Georgia, it's obvious that Nick told him about the other husbands. Which led Paul to wonder: if she's capable of killing her other lovers, could he be next? In the words of Pam Shipman: "It's all the drama, I just love it!" Season 3 of Ginny & Georgia is now streaming on Netflix.
