* StealthSequel: The 2023 novel ''Literature/TheSecretHours'' was promoted as a standalone book about the civil servants assigned to the Monochrome inquiry into secret service misconduct, and how the OTIS files shake up an otherwise thwarted investigation. However, the Slough House novella ''Literature/StandingByTheWall'' features a scene with Molly Doran thinking about Monochrome, and [[spoiler:centers around a very old photo of Jackson, Molly and Otis]].

Added DiffLines:

* MirroringFactions: For all the contempt that the Slow Horses get from the rest of the service, it is often apparent that the supposed 'elite' of Regent's Park are in fact pretty incompetent and prone to disastrous fuck-ups themselves; what they in fact tend to excel at is finding others to take the fall for their mistakes.

** Jackson Lamb himself. [[spoiler: A conversation with Ingrid Tearney in ''Real Tigers'' makes it clear that this is a directive from [=MI5=] leadership, who ''want'' the Slow Horses to quit. If anything, Tearney is concerned that Lamb may be going too far out of malicious compliance and becoming a hate figure who encourages them to dig their heels in and stay]].
