Slow Horses contains absolutely none of the complexity of Le Carre. They're in the same genre, but are not comparable.

The series you really want is The Night Manager.

Obviously, this assumes you've seen the BBC Tinker Tailor with Alec Guinness, the canonical Smiley.

It also stars an actor who played George Smiley in another film.
