ITV revealed that May marked the end of an era for the show, saying in a statement it was a “mutual decision” between the producers and screenwriters.
They explained: “After 10 phenomenally successful years, Mammoth Screen producers and screenwriter Russell Lewis, Shaun Evans and Roger Allam have jointly decided to bring the internationally renowned Endeavor to a close, and the series currently being shot in Oxford will be the last.” to be.’
Set in the 1960s, the dramatic TV show follows the adventures of a young Endeavor Morse after he is transferred to the Oxford City Police Department following a double homicide investigation.
Shaun plays the titular character, a younger incarnation of the legendary Inspector Morse, made famous by the late actor John Thaw, who played the role from 1987 until his death in 1999.

Roger Allam, who stars as DCI Fred Thursday, and Anton Lesser who plays CS Reginald Bright, will also reprise their roles for the upcoming drama.
Tensions mounted in the final season finale and Morse was effectively sidelined in a key investigation.
Endeavor is the third in the Inspector Morse trilogy series, which aired from 2012 to now. It followed the original Inspector Morse (1987 – 2000) and its sequel Lewis (2006 – 2015).
Author Colin Dexter’s first Morse novel was published in 1975, and in 1987 ITV began adapting the books for the hit drama, starring Thaw as Chief Inspector Morse and Whately as then-Sergeant Lewis. It ended in 2000 after 33 episodes.
Colin later revealed that he had agreed to a prequel series called Endeavor – about Morse as a young officer – just because it wasn’t a betrayal of Thaw.
About 13 million viewers watched the last episode of Morse in 2000, and there was a huge outpouring of grief over the detective’s demise.
