Slow Horses” may be headed by Gary Oldman’s dishevelled MI5 agent Jackson Lamb but it was Roddy Ho, played by Christopher Chung, who took the reins in Season 5.

The clueless computer nerd with an outsized attitude finally got a storyline matching his main character energy when he found himself romantically pursued by the mysterious Tara (Hiba Bennani), who couldn’t possibly be after anything more than Ho’s hot bod – at least in his mind.
