‘Endeavour’ is back for its final series so it’s almost time to say farewell to the much-loved detective.
Shaun Evans and Roger Allam are back as Endeavour and Thursday respectively. You can check out some images from the first episode of the new series in our gallery below:
The new series, set in the early 70s, finds Endeavour and Thursday entering a new era of change both professionally and personally with the return of some familiar faces along the way including Sam, played by Jack Bannon (Pennyworth), who arrives back from Northern Ireland following his service in the British Army.
The synopsis for Episode 1, ‘Prelude’, is:
It’s spring 1972 and Endeavour’s return to Castle Gate coincides with another homecoming, that of the celebrated Oxford Concert Orchestra, led by illustrious composer Sir Alexander Lermontov. A gruesome discovery in a College garden leads Endeavour and Thursday to the orchestra’s door, and when a second tragedy hits, they uncover a web of secrets.
Meanwhile, grisly London business turns up in Oxford and a criminal from the Smoke is brutally murdered in a derelict warehouse. As the mystery unfolds, Endeavour and Thursday realise there are some unsettling ties to a case the pair had hoped was long since behind them.
‘Endeavour’ airs at 8pm Sunday 26th February 2023 on ITV1.
