BBC Passed on ‘Slow Horses,’ Apple TV+ Europe Boss Reveals as She Pays Tribute to U.K. Screen Sector: ‘You Have to Take Risks’
Apple TV+ Europe Boss and BFI chair Jay Hunt revealed the BBC had passed on 'Slow Horses' as she discussed risk-taking in the industry.
There's no way the Beeb could afford Slow Horses - so much of it is shot in London, and not like some other city pretending to be London, but actual London. The expense of it is a flex for Apple, but it would've put off less cash-rich producers.
5Such a great show.
4It's fantastic, but I don't like the characters signature shabby look and vulgar behaviour. i guess it's part of the character design, but it's kinda depressing ngl.
-3I love it personally. Makes the character iconic. :)
I've noticed that in most American TV shows, the characters always look beautiful. It takes away a lot from the realism of a show.
