Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 15 Oct, 12:32 · Archive
The latest episode of Apple TV's Slow Horses, which aired on October 14, features several Suffolk filming locations. The show stars Gary Oldman as spymaster Jackson Lamb and Jack Lowden as River Cartwright, following a team of MI5 agents at the dumping ground department known as Slough House. The series is the longest-running on Apple TV and has won numerous international awards.
The episode uses the Orwell Bridge on the outskirts of Ipswich as the backdrop for a meeting between the season's villain Frank Harkness (played by Hugo Weaving) and his associates, where they discuss plans to track down a fugitive travelling eastbound on the A14. Other locations featured include a remote spot along the River Deben surrounded by fields, and RAF Bentwaters near Woodbridge.
At RAF Bentwaters, the character River Cartwright is shown in a high-speed car chase along the runway, complete with explosions and fight sequences. Filming took place across Suffolk in early 2025, with the locations kept secret until the episode aired. The sixth season comprises six parts, with the finale scheduled to air on October 21.
