Watched the first 2 (of 6) episodes and thought they were excellent. Gary Oldman is brilliant. Highly recommend.

Are all the episodes available?

I've read all of the Jackson Lamb books and have been looking forward to this. I've not got Apple TV but will take out a 1-month sub or even a free trial and binge-watch them.

Watched the trailer and his voice didn't match what I imagine Lamb sounding like. Is he as sweary and farty as in the books? 😒

Fantastic show! A spy show with rejects. Gary Oldman is great, and all the other actors are good, too. The story respects the intelligence of the viewer and makes sense.

And to answer my own question, "Is he as sweary and farty as in the books?" - yes, he is!!!!
