Doctor Who Vs. Endeavour, Series 1

Produced by Mammoth and Masterpiece for
ITV Studios, this period crime drama was
devised as the prequel to the long-running
 and influential series Inspector Morse,
which ran from 1987 to 2000 and earned
 six BAFTA awards.
Like Morse and its sequel series, Lewis
(2000 to 2015), Endeavour is set in Oxford.
Liverpool-born actor Shaun Evans now port-
rayed the young Endeavour Morse (created
by Colin Dexter), who began his career as
a Detective Constable with the City Police 
CID at Cowley in 1965.
Following a successful pilot episode, the
first full season was originally broadcast
in the spring of 2013, and another repeat
 run began on ITV3 last night.
The five feature-length cases featured
Roger Allam (as DI Fred Thursday)Jack Laskey (DS Jakes), James Bradshaw (Dr. DeBryn), Sean Rigby (PC Strange)Anton
