Last summer, it came to say that this would be your last season with "slow horses". How did that decision appear?

Will Smith: Well, unfortunately, it was a practical decision only based on the unusual need for Series Six scripts. And I was doing so much work in a series of five that there was no way I could do it. I didn't want to leave, but it was also like, I couldn't prepare the scripts, they could not meet the schedule, so it was with great sadness on both sides. But I also feel that I have presented the play -it does not conclude anything by any means, and the show will continue on even bigger and better things and Mick has just announced the ninth book and I'm sure there will be 10th, 11th, 12th. That's how it will continue. But in terms of my contribution, I feel that it concludes certain arcs started in series one. I don't want to give spoilers, but it feels like a nice output place. The show is in a good position, I hope, creative.

My understanding is that when you wrote Season 5, you shot the fourth season and edited the third season. Well, did you know that season 5 would be your last when you wrote it? Did you have that sense of, as a writer, like "Ah, I put the last touches on the last script I will touch"?

There were a few moments when it was like: "Oh, this is the last day I shoot with these actors," and the like, and it was very emotional. But it also goes on. You finish the filming, then you have ADR, then there were a few pickups, and then on Sunday we had the screening of the cast and the crew. It was fantastic to see everyone again. And then, I help with - gave birth to a Reddit right after this, and I'm part of it. So, it's like, "Oh, I haven't left yet." It didn't hit me, but I'm sure when it happened, it would be like, "UG". But as to when I actually wrote that series, all you are thinking about is to be the best it can be and just like, "where are the characters? Is this what they would do and say at this moment?" Thinking about them. And, it's the focus, really, it's the show.

Do you remember the last day of the set if there are some moments that you said would remember for a long time?

Yes. There were two really, really wonderful moments when the guys at the props, Nick Atkinson and Harry Larkin, gave me a box of certain props from the show, which was completely out of nowhere. And then the production, they gave me a book, I dropped it there (gestures behind him) And there is a picture - all of the crew and all of the cast had a page, all departments, and everyone wrote the most incredible messages. I didn't really expect it. I didn't know that people felt the way they seem to say they had done them with the things they wrote. And that is something I will rich forever, because I am absolutely blown up.

That's wonderful. Can you give me any of the props you mentioned there?

Yes, where are they? I can get them out. (flush around and hold objects in front of the camera) I have ... I don't know if I should have this. My God, I will probably get an apple call. I have ID cards on slow horses. I got the false passport of Athonatan Price, some fake money, the tin in which River's grandfather buried his flight fund. Am I recognizing for theft here? And then, I got the plaque of min from the church.

Incredible.
