Slow Horses Season 2 Episode 4 Exclusive Sneak Peek You're Watching

Black Doves, Slow Horses, The Diplomat: What's behind the surge of thrillers set in London? In the past three months, there have been four high-profile espionage shows that have called London home, and there is a reason.. Netflix has lined up Black Doves, its own spy thriller series coming out this December, that it hopes can match the success of Apple TV Plus 's Slow Horses. Slow Horses, starring Gary Oldman as slob spook Jackson Lamb (above), has gained critical acclaim and a string of awards.

Black Doves is a British spy action thriller television series created by Joe Barton. The series, starring Keira Knightley, Ben Whishaw, and Sarah Lancashire, is developed by Sister and Barton's production company Noisy Bear for Netflix.. The six-episode Netflix mini-series Black Doves is being promoted as a Christmas holiday spy thriller, full of such fun scenes as explosions, intense gun-fight street battles and stylish upper-class British banter to mix up with the tinsel and ornaments. Helen Webb (Keira Knightley of "Pirates of the Carribean", "Pride and Prejudice" and "Bend It Like Beckham") is an unlikely agent.
