It's set in 1965, and explains how Endeavour (Morse) became the man he was....it wasn't played by John Thaw (who I think was wonderful!) but it's excellent as a prequel.
Also wonder if you've watched the spin-off series 'Lewis'....again, not as good - but certainly watchable (once you get to understand the language!!!  ) Sally x | Quote:

I loved Endeavor's crotchety little bespeckled boss who was such a little fool! Loved that character - always made Morse look like the genius he was. Robert Thaw was my muse for a time as Morse. Kidding - but I did so enjoy much of his work that I saw. |  Woo Hoo!!!  A brand new series of Endeavour started over here last Sunday evening!!! Double woo hoo!!!
