Masterpiece Mystery!: Endeavour DVD

Professional Reviews:

"The mystery is suitably complicated and all but devoid of the kind of obvious clues that every member of the audience should be able to figure out long before the hero does. That's the sign of a good TV mystery, and 'Endeavour' is that." - David Wiegand, The San Francisco Chronicle

Description

• Before Inspector Morse, there was the rookie Constable Morse. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the UK premiere of Inspector Morse in 1987, Endeavour turns back the clock to 1965 to tell the story of the making of the legendary detective.
  
  Shaun Evans (The Take) steps into John Thaw's shoes as the younger version of Colin Dexter's iconic creation, Inspector Morse, shedding new light on the origins of the detective famed for his love of crosswords, classical music, real ale, and classic cars.
  
  In 1965, a reluctant Detective Constable Endeavour Morse was recruited into the hunt for a missing schoolgirl, drawing him back to the place that would ultimately shape and define his destiny--Oxford.
  
  Adrift in the midst of a full-blown murder investigation led by Detective Inspector Fred Thursday (Roger Allam, The Iron Lady), Morse finds himself sidelined, discredited, and at a dead end. Facing down small-time thugs, big-time politicians, and the demons of his past, Morse begins his own quest for justice--risking it all as he edges closer and closer to uncovering a truth that will haunt him for the rest of his days.
