SBIFF Cinema Society Q&A - Slow Horses with Gary Oldman and Douglas Urbanski recap

A recap of the juiciest tidbits from the panel featuring Gary Oldman and Douglas Urbanski:

About season 6

Season 6 is currently in pre-production, with most episodes already written.

Adam Randall, the director for Season 4, will helm the entire sixth season.

Production has allowed Randall to contribute to the writing process by joining the writers in the writing room.

Gary Oldman has already read the scripts and finds them fantastic.

About season 5

Season 5 will unveil a significant revelation about Lamb's past.

Viewers will catch a glimpse of Lamb's house.

Gary Oldman describes this season as truly impressive and with a more Le Carré-esque feel, akin to season 2.

Expect an intense exchange where Lamb blackmails Diana.

New, incredible insults directed at River are on the horizon.

Season 5 is a 'three farts season,' says Oldman, laughing his ass off.

About Mick Herron

Gary Oldman asked Mick Herron for extra information about Lamb when working on S1 but quickly realized that the character is a mystery even for his creator. Herron's response is often "I don't know".

Mick Herron asked Gary Oldman to accompany him to a signing session just before the release of the first season, not realizing that the show would eventually relieve him of his signing session obligations for good.

It was actually Mick Herron who suggested using David Cornwell, John Le Carré's real name, as the name on Lamb's passport that briefly appears in S1. And Kristen Scott Thomas's casting as Diana Taverner was inspired by her previous work with Gary Oldman on the set of The Darkest Hour.

Behind the scene

Will Smith is frequently on set, going over scripts with the actors.

Occasionally, there's room for improvisation.

With a single director overseeing the entire season, the Slow Horses team remains committed to their vision for nearly a year of continuous work on set.

Gary Oldman receives the scripts really early for every season.

Fart acting are obviously "sound effects".

There are emails going back and forth between Oldman and production about 'fart acting.' The one in the car in S3 was praised as 'robust.' There were emails about 'the frequency' of the sound because the car has leather seats, being a Rolls Royce.

The trench coat remains the same, unchanged since the very first season. No one is allowed to wash it.

Kristen Scott Thomas's casting as Diana Taverner was inspired by her previous work with Gary Oldman on the set of The Darkest Hour.

Almost all the crew come back year after year.

Gary Oldman compares working with the cast of Slow Horses to the joy of winning his Oscar.

I don't think I'm ever gonna recover from this oh my GOD.

The hatred in River's eyes when Harkness insults his grandfather. River telling Louisa to get away and leave him when the grenade is in his jacket. Lamb finding Sam's body and grabbing that fucking whiskey bottle like a man possessed. Marcus dying. "He loved you and he wanted you to love yourself too." JK shooting Patrice for Shirley. Lamb making sure Marcus' family was taken care of. River dropping his grandad off at the care home. "River you promised you'd never do this to me." River holding back tears and his voice breaking as he answers the phone. Lamb making sure River is protected. River's little smile as he drinks with Lamb.

They're trying to kill us off I SWEAR.
