The English drama "Slow Horses" is very strange to be translated as "flowing people". The protagonists are a group of agents who have been banished from King Regent's Park by MI5. Their new unit, Slough House, resembles an old home, where the boss, Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman), is said to have been a powerful operative who has turned into an immortal, working day and night. Slough department, drinking and farting make the office smelly. 
Fortunately, this drama did not follow the routine of American dramas, and filmed the past and present life of every agent who was demoted. There is no need for this, their personalities are the reason, and it is interesting to let the audience spell out those stories by themselves.
When the rhythm suddenly accelerated, the Slough department collective escape started, and the most enjoyable part began. It's a modern-day British spy version of "Guardians of the Galaxy," played by Jack Lowden, who also resembles Chris Pratt. The most exciting thing is not the rabble fighting monsters, but how the rabble gathers, awakens, and shows its true strength under the prevailing wind. This formula has been tried and tested in literary and artistic works ("Water Margin" is not also). When Lamb's fat ass finally gets out of his office chair and stuffs his ripped socks into his shoes; Kathleen Standish (Sakaya Rivers), a lady secretary who is still charming, pulls it out of her handbag Gun, pointed at popular agent Spade Webb (Freddie Fox), it's time to be proud.
So-and-so's cemetery is like a code, and no one has ever clearly stated whether it is a safe house or a meeting place in an emergency. In addition to one death and one injury, all the members of the Slough department were awakened from the lair in the middle of the night, and the speeding vehicles in twos and threes avoided the capture of the headquarters and fled to the assembly point belonging to the inferior horses.
The Deputy Commissioner's conspiracy is a wise and foolish one. She wanted to crack down on the far-right forces in the UK, and sent an agent eager to turn around to convene a team to kidnap a Pakistani sophomore. The student's uncle holds a high position in Pakistan. If the plan goes well, kidnap him, then rescue him, and create a wave of propaganda through the beheading trailer video, which can hit the extremists hard.
But this matter itself is not on the table, not to mention that the plan will go wrong, and the kidnappers can easily get out of control. She became addicted to the abandoned sons of the Slough department, and sent one to monitor one, one to hunt down one, one to frame another, and one to wipe the butt of the other. Seeing Diana cocooning herself, showing that her wildness outweighs her ability, and her flaws outnumber her clever calculations, it is very heartwarming.
The show isn't over yet, but I guess everything that happens in the dark will be wiped out when the sun rises. But this is not the miracle moment that ordinary people dream of.

He has one characteristic: he doesn't like his agents working too seriously. He just wants everyone to be pinned to their desks, get off work on time, and spend every day in peace. Lamb, who knows the rules of London well, knows best what the Slough department really does: do the dirty work and take the blame. Deputy Commissioner Diana Teffner (Kristin Scott Thomas) is the real head of the Slough department. She understands the cravings of these "lower horses". In order to return to King Regent's Park and regain the glory of "007", they are willing to risk far more than the manual requires."Lower Horse" stills
On a cold and rainy day in London, the people in the Slough department were bored, complaining about each other, and doing low-level work. While they gave up on themselves, they still had a desire to be fished out of here. The "Lower Horse" with the original novel looks very pleasant. It has a light-hearted rhythm, and sprinkles unscaring magic powder on a horrific death. British slang and vitriol defuse the oppressive atmosphere, and every loser in the Slough department has an opportunity to show his personality. One by one, because their personalities are too bright, or too dull, or too annoying, it is appropriate to be thrown here. The department is a home of weirdos who can't adapt to the workplace culture. Everyone feels that it is a misfortune to settle here, so no one follows the rules of the workplace.Fortunately, this drama did not follow the routine of American dramas, and filmed the past and present life of every agent who was demoted.

Heroes are not uncommon, anti-heroes are too dark. We just like to watch people who are helpless, who are in love, who are deeply nerdy, and who have no workplace sensitivity to show their B side. They are not ordinary staff after all. Even MI5 garbage can respond quickly. There is also a secret assembly location for these inferior horses.So-and-so's cemetery is like a code, and no one has ever clearly stated whether it is a safe house or a meeting place in an emergency.
