Apple TV+’s ‘Slow Horses’ writers receive USB Libraries Scripter Award

The writers behind the Apple TV+ series, “Slow Horses” received the 35th-annual USC Libraries Scripter Awards at USC’s Doheny Memorial Library.

The Scripter Awards recognize the year’s most accomplished adaptations of the written word for the big screen and episodic series. In the episodic series category, novelist Mick Herron and screenwriter Will Smith took home Scripters for the episode “Failure’s Contagious,” from the Apple TV+ series “Slow Horses,” which Smith adapted from Herron’s book of the same name.

Apple TV+ has renewed “Slow Horses” for seasons three and four. The first two seasons are now available at the streaming service.

About ‘Slow Horses’

Here’s how Apple describes the series: “Slow Horses” is a darkly humorous espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known un-affectionately as Slough House. Gary Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but irascible leader of the spies, who end up in Slough House due to their career-ending mistakes as they frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world.
