Is Tom Brooke Leaving Slow Horses, and Is JK Coe Dead?

River reaches Coe too late as Russian assassins kill him and kidnap Sid, while Taverner cuts a deal to stop the violence.

  • On Wednesday, October 7, Slow Horses season six premiered its fourth episode, which culminated in the death of intelligence officer J.K. Coe during a knife fight in a service station bathroom.
  • Actor Tom Brooke portrayed Coe, an MI5 intelligence officer who suffered from PTSD and became a fan favorite after joining the cast in season four.
  • Brooke had made peace with the character's death before joining the show, noting that the "mundaneness" of the death scene in the original book specifically appealed to him.
  • Fans are reacting to the death, which marks a major turning point in the sixth season of the Apple TV spy drama starring Jack Lowden.
  • The season remains a "ceaseless thrill machine" as other agents continue to scrape and claw, while Jackson Lamb and Frank Harkness trade barbs at Shake Shack.
