The Brits seem to do these sort of dramas - spies, government conspiracies, crime - so well. I really enjoyed Season 1 of Slow Horses. If you’re keen on this sort of thing check out the two seasons of “The Capture” as well. It’s a BBC show that was co-produced by and released for streaming on Peacock. Both come with strong recommendations from Redd’s Reviews.
I was browsing around the YouTubes the other day… when I found this wonderous news!

That’s a fair point. 1923 though is set to be a limited series - 2 seasons, 8 episodes each. And I think all of the main shooting has already been done for both seasons. It’s a sequel to 1883, which was a single season of 10 episodes only. Also, it’s not known if the two of them will actually be in every episode, or might be killed off before the end anyway.
