Fan Casting Slow Horses (American Cast)
Story added by rwhite18 on June 27, 2025
Story Plot
Slough House is an administrative purgatory for MI5 service rejects who have seriously failed a task but not badly enough to get sacked. Those consigned there are known as "slow horses", a play on the name of the place itself, Slough House, and an expression for people who are slow at thinking and action. Those assigned there are expected to endure dull, routine tasks, along with occasional verbal abuse from their miserable boss, Jackson Lamb, who anticipates that they will leave out of boredom or frustration.[3] Life in Slough House is defined by drudgery. Yet the slow horses somehow get involved in investigating cases that endanger Britain.
