Shaun Evans is the young, cynical, whip-smart, opera loving Detective Constable Endeavour Morse.

Set in the 1960s, Endeavour follows the young constable after he has quickly risen through the ranks of the Oxford Police. Much to the envy of his superiors, Morse is enlisted by veteran Detective Inspector Fred Thursday (Roger Allam) to be his wingman as they set out to solve a string of complex cases.
