No, not a detective series, but this 1940s-set multi-strand drama touches on so much that it’s hard not to imagine a younger Fred Thursday slotting neatly into its story of conflicted wartime romance and life-or-death conspiracy.
Stream on: PBS Masterpiece (US) BBC iPlayer, ITVX and BritBox (UK) The likelihood though, is that those three will have already been exhausted by Morse devotees, so here are some recommendations of detective shows with a touch of Endeavour about them, whether it’s a melancholic lead with a brilliant mind, a British period setting, satisfyingly written cases to solve, an excellent ensemble cast, or in some cases – all of the above. Both are currently streamable on BritBox in the UK and US, as well as ITVX, and PBS Masterpiece. Thirdly, there’s sequel Lewis, which continued the story of Morse’s underling Robbie through his own inspector days, and which also ran for 33 episodes, up until 2015. The second is the original ITV show Inspector Morse based on those books, which starred John Thaw in the title role for 33 feature-length episodes between 19. The first are Colin Dexter’s novels, which established the character. Now that Endeavour has ended for good, there are a few obvious places for fans to go in search of more of the crossword-solving, bitter-drinking, classics-quoting Oxford detective.
