We Want To Knight Gary Oldman All Over Again After These Exciting Slow Horses Updates
Some of us are still reeling from the many twists of Slow Horses season four, but in a new interview with Deadline, its leading man Sir Gary Oldman gave fans three major reasons to be excited about the future of the show.
First off, there's the fact that season five will premiere on Apple TV+ later this year. Season six, meanwhile, has already been shot, with Deadline's interview with the newly-knighted British actor claiming that the Emmy-winning spy drama has already been renewed for a seventh run.
They said that the new batch of episodes is due to begin filming in London this autumn.
HuffPost UK has contacted Apple TV+ for comment.
Sir Gary described Slow Horses as 'truly the wonderful gift that keeps on giving'. The Oscar winner enthused: 'I just adore the hell out of it, and the people. It is just such a wonderful thing really to be part of.'
'We are so sort of contaminated with the idea of the spy world being and casinos and Aston Marti's that I think it connects with people because the people in it are ordinary people who do heroic things, without any gizmos,' he added.
In an interview with BBC News last year, Sir Gary insisted that he is 'in it for the long run' and would continue playing Jackson Lamb as long as he's able.
Since it began airing in 2022, Slow Horses has become one of Apple TV+'s flagship shows, winning near-unanimous critical acclaim as well as an Emmy and several TV Baftas.
Based on the books by Mick Herron, the show also features Jack Lowden, Kristin Scott Thomas, Hugo Weaving, Jonathan Pryce and Sophie Okonedo among its current main cast.
The first four seasons of Slow Horses are now streaming on Apple TV+, with the next instalments set to premiere later this year.

The Beach Boys Chart A New Hit Following Brian Wilson's Passing
The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" debuts on one U.K. chart more than half a century after its ... More release following Brian Wilson's passing. Clockwise from left, the Beach Boys are Al Jardine, Mike Love, Brian Wilson, Dennis Wilson, and Carl Wilson. Brian Wilson, the genius musician behind The Beach Boys and one of the most celebrated singers and songwriters of all time, passed away on June 11 at the age of 82. Millions of people around the world immediately rushed to honor his legacy by returning to the Beach Boys' classics, which helped define a generation's sound and changed pop music forever. In the wake of Wilson's death, the group scores a new hit in the United Kingdom with a track that originally took over the airwaves more than half a century ago, as 'Good Vibrations' has become a bestseller once again. 'Good Vibrations' appears on a pair of rankings in the U.K. this week. The track debuts on the Official Singles Sales chart, and this frame marks its first appearance on the country's list of the top-selling tunes. The cut opens at No. 55 on the Official Singles Sales chart this frame. Of course, that tally didn't exist when 'Good Vibrations' was first released, and the track required a special set of circumstances to reach this roster. As 'Good Vibrations' debuts, The Beach Boys collect only a third hit on the Official Singles Sales chart. The group first appeared on the list in 2014 with 'God Only Knows,' which remains its top-performing cut on that tally. It's thus far the only release by the band to spend more than one week on the ranking, and it has peaked at No. 23. The Beach Boys scored a second win in 2020 with 'Kokomo.' 'Good Vibrations' now marks the group's third placement and its second-highest-rising title so far — though that number may change in a few days once a full tracking period has passed following the sad news. 'Good Vibrations' also returns to the Official Singles Downloads chart as it debuts on the all-encompassing sales roster. The track had previously spent just one week at No. 22, and now it doubles its total number of appearances on that list by breaking back in at No. 52. 'Good Vibrations' joins only 'God Only Knows' as one of two Beach Boys hits that fans immediately selected as their favorites — the ones they wanted to revisit after Wilson's death. Several collections, such as Sounds of Summer and Pet Sounds, also return, and the group's chart takeover may be even more impressive when the rankings are refreshed.

Scotland's Home of the Year star runs Glasgow Men's 10k in unusual footwear
A 10k run in unusual footwear has helped put a spotlight on men's mental health. TV presenter and architect Danny Campbell completed the Glasgow Men's 10K in a pair of Crocs, using the eye-catching choice of footwear to start conversations around grief, resilience, and men's mental health. Danny, known for his role as a judge on BBC Scotland's Home of the Year, ran the 10K in memory of his younger brother Duncan, who passed away last year following a long illness. He said: "I ran the race in my brother's honour. "Every squeaky step, Dunk was with me. "He faced life's hardest challenges with humour, courage, and zero regards for convention. "He made sure we laughed, even when things got impossibly hard. "I'm just trying to follow in his footsteps." Read more: Brave Glasgow couple to abseil 30m down iconic Scottish landmark Crossing the finish line in 50 minutes and 18 seconds, Danny handed out copies of Duncan's memoir, The Suicide Notes, during the race in hopes of encouraging open conversations about mental health. The architect, who founded HOKO Design in 2019 and serves as an ambassador for The Social Hub Glasgow, has spoken candidly about balancing grief, fatherhood, and entrepreneurship while raising three young boys. (Image: Supplied) Danny said: "My Crocs are now a symbol of not giving a toss about other people's expectations. "It's about showing up as yourself — and creating space for other people to do the same. "Thanks to everyone who donated, cheered, or just shook their head in disbelief. "I hope it made people smile - and maybe think about someone they could check in on today." The Glasgow Men's 10k, which began at the Riverside Museum and finished at Glasgow Green, aims to encourage men of all ages to get active and speak openly about their mental health. Danny is raising funds for the Mental Health Foundation, a UK charity dedicated to addressing mental health issues. Donations remain open at Read more: New Glasgow-inspired wellbeing wallpaper unveiled by SAMH Julie Cameron, associate director for Scotland at the Mental Health Foundation, said: "We're incredibly grateful to Danny for taking on this challenge, raising both awareness and vital funds for the Mental Health Foundation. "His message encouraging people, especially men, to talk about their struggles and seek support is more important than ever. "While awareness has grown, stigma still holds many back from opening up about their struggles. "Normalising conversations around mental health is crucial, and if an architect running a 10k in Crocs sparks those discussions, that's a win."
