The hunt for a missing Oxford schoolgirl draws rookie Detective Endeavour Morse (Shaun Evans), the conflicted young detective on the verge of resignation, back to the university he'd suddenly left only a few years before inEndeavour, originally a stand-alone episode that was so popular it is now the pilor for a series.
The solitary and cerebral Endeavour drives his first Jaguar, drinks his first pint and, to the sublime strains of opera, fights for the truth as he forges the identity that will someday become Inspector Morse.
Endeavour is available on DVD, Blu-ray disc, and Amazon Instant, and consists of episodes that originally aired on ITV in January 201 and this past summer on PBS's Masterpiece Mystery!
