Becoming Morse in Endeavour: the prequel as locus of reconstruction of the past? 1 Becoming Morse in Endeavour: the prequel as locus of reconstruction of the past? Armelle Parey Introduction 1 The figure of Inspector Morse first appeared in a novel by Colin Dexter, Last Bus to Woodstock, in 1975. By the time the character reached the TV screen in 1987, impersonated by John Thaw (in The Dead of Jericho), Colin Dexter (1930-2017) had already published 7 of the 12 novels he wrote in total around the figure of the grumpy opera- loving inspector. The TV adaptation, Inspector Morse, consisted in 33 films, broadcast in series or as “specials”, aired on ITV between 1987 and 2000, finishing with the adaptation of The Last Remorseful Day (1999) in which the character dies1. Following the death of John Thaw in 2002, Dexter stipulated in a clause in his will that no other actor should reprise the role2.

  • I First Glimpsed the Magnificent Gothic Spires of Oxford on My Iniɵal Trip To
    VOLUME 8, ISSUE 1 Page 1 CRACKING THE MORSE CODE ON A VISIT TO OXFORD BY MERIL MARKLEY I Įrst glimpsed the magniĮcent gothic spires of Oxford on my iniƟal trip to Europe, as a 19ͲyearͲold, on the VasͲ sar Madrigal Singers’ tour. The highlight of our journey was singing in Oxford’s Holywell Music Room, a concert hall where the Ɵtans of the 18th century music world, Handel and Haydn, had also performed. However, there had been liƩle Ɵme between rehearsals and performances to explore the city. I had always wanted to go back and so was delighted when my husband, Michael, proͲ posed that we spend a few days there in conͲ juncƟon with a business trip to London. His desire was not born of academic curiosity or classical music but rather sprang from theInspectorMorse TV seͲ ries that began in 1987 and ran through 2003, followed by sequels called InspectorLewis and a prequel called Endeavour(aŌer Morse’s improbable Įrst name). Making lavish use of the city and its colleges, the series have excelled at transforming fans into tourists while sparking a coƩage industry of MorseͲrelated oīerings.* The InspectorMorse novels, from which the TV series derived, were the brainchild of Classics scholar, crossͲ word maven, and Cambridge graduate, Colin Dexter. His ĮcƟonal policeman was an Oxford graduate, curmudgͲ eonly bachelor, aĮcionado of grand opera, and veteran Ɵppler who never touched wine. The murders Morse invesƟgated involved complex lives and plots. Homicides sprang from jealousy (whether romanƟc or academͲ ic), philandering, revenge, drugͲdealing, or to put an end to blackmail.

  • Endeavour on MASTERPIECE MYSTERY!
    Born to Sleuth Endeavour Starring Shaun Evans as Detective Constable Endeavour Morse Sunday, July 1, 2012 at 9pm ET on PBS "Shaun Evans is beguiling in the title role…" - The Guardian (UK) Before Inspector Morse, there was the rookie Constable Morse, fed up with police work and ready to nip his career in the bud by handing in his resignation. That is, until a murder turned up that only he could solve. Shaun Evans (The Take, The Virgin Queen) stars as the young Endeavour Morse, before his signature red Jaguar but with his deductive powers already running in high gear, on Endeavour, airing on MASTERPIECE MYSTERY! July 1, 2012 on PBS. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the UK premiere of Inspector Morse in 1987, Endeavour turns back the clock to 1965 to tell the story of the making of the legendary detective, who was played by John Thaw in 33 episodes of Inspector Morse that aired on MYSTERY! from 1988 to 2001. Thaw died in 2002. But his daughter Abigail Thaw (Vanity Fair) makes a very special appearance in Endeavour. Novelist Colin Dexter authored the Morse plots and characters, including the thrilling back-story to Endeavour, which is scripted by Russell Lewis. Lewis also created the spinoff series Inspector Lewis, featuring the exploits of Morse’s sergeant. Endeavour co-stars Roger Allam (The Queen) as Inspector Thursday, Morse’s mentor on the Oxfordshire Constabulary; Richard Lintern (Page Eight) as Professor Rowan Stromming, an Oxford don shocked to see the inside of a murder inquiry; Charlie Creed-Miles (White Teeth) as used Jaguar dealer Teddy Samuels; Patrick Malahide (Middlemarch) as a high-handed government minister; and James Bradshaw (Brideshead Revisited) as police pathologist Dr.

    Afternoon Tea at the Conrad & British Telly Club Meeting Supported by Bob & Toni Bader Saturday, 2 April 2016 NEW DRAMA CHOICES BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES 4x90 | 2014 – Prime New Zealand Detective Inspector Mike Shepherd (Neill Rea, Go Girls) arrives on assignment in Brokenwood, a small town where memories—and animosities—run deep. He’s an experienced cop with a 1971 “classic” car, a collection of country music cassettes, and an indeterminate number of ex-wives. The new woman in his life is his assistant, Detective Constable Kristin Sims (Fern Sutherland, The Almighty Johnsons), a by-the-book investigator nearly 20 years younger than her boss’s car, who quickly has to get used to his lone-wolf ways. PARTNERS IN CRIME 6x60 | 2013 - BBC Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and spinster sleuth Miss Marple weren’t Dame Agatha Christie’s only creations. She also invented Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, an ordinary married couple who stumble into spycraft and end up being rather good at it. In these sparkling new adaptations of two classic mysteries, set in 1950s Britain at the start of the Cold War, Tommy (David Walliams (Little Britain) and Tuppence (Jessica Raine, Call The Midwife, Wolf Hall) return to the small screen, bickering, sweet on each other, and soon knee-deep in danger. MISS FISHER MURDER MYSTERIES 3 Seasons, 34x60 | 2011 – Australian Broadcasting Corp The Honorable Miss Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis, Girl with a Pearl Earring) is a thoroughly modern woman of the late 1920s operating in a mostly male world. The glamorous “lady detective” goes about her work with a pistol close at hand—and, more often than not, a male admirer even closer.

  • Inspector Morse Prequel to Air on MASTERPIECE Shaun Evans Plays Young Endeavour Morse
    Inspector Morse Prequel To Air On MASTERPIECE Shaun Evans Plays Young Endeavour Morse One of the most popular detectives in television history is returning to MASTERPIECE on PBS. A prequel of the long-running series Inspector Morse—titled Endeavour, a reference to Morse’s first name—will air on MASTERPIECE MYSTERY! in 2012, marking the 25th anniversary of the series’ 1987 premiere. British actor Shaun Evans (Ashes to Ashes) will step into John Thaw’s shoes to play the younger version of Colin Dexter’s iconic character, giving the audience the chance to discover the origins of the detective famed for his love of crosswords, classical music, real ale and classic cars. “Inspector Morse was one of my favorite detectives,” says MASTERPIECE executive producer Rebecca Eaton. “Shaun Evans has a similar depth and quiet charm. I can’t wait to see his Endeavour.” Set in 1965, the story follows the hunt for a missing schoolgirl, which draws Endeavour Morse back to the place that will ultimately shape and define his destiny: Oxford. Oxford is also the setting of the hit MASTERPIECE series Inspector Lewis, starring Kevin Whately in the role he originated in Inspector Morse. Four new episodes of Inspector Lewis begin on MASTERPIECE on September 4, 2011. Endeavour is written by Russell Lewis (creator of Lewis, Cadfael, and writer of Inspector Morse) and is made by Mammoth Screen for ITV1. Endeavour is a coproduction of ITV Studios Productions and MASTERPIECE. Michele Buck and Damien Timmer are executive producers, and Rebecca Eaton is executive producer for MASTERPIECE. MASTERPIECE on PBS is presented by WGBH Boston.

  • British Murder Mysteries at the Nichols Library at the Nichols Library . The
    British Murder Mysteries at the Nichols Library at the Nichols Library . The Maigret Collection features Inspector Jules Maigret, the Parisain detective created by novelist Georges Simenon. Maigret’s insights into the motives behind the crime make him one of fiction’s most interesting sleuths. His Gallic appreciation of life view makes him one of the most charming. His investigations range from crimes of passion to thieves foaling out to official malfeasance. The Inspector is ably assisted throughout by three loyal colleagues, and is occasionally chided by his nemesis, the Examining Magistrate. The twelve episodes, filmed in the 1990s, are of high quality. The crimes unravel at a leisurely pace against a densely textured backdrop of the seedy Parisian demi-monde. Michael Gambon is a standout as the droll and humane Inspector Jules Maigret. As a supporting character in the popular BBC Inspector Morse mysteries, Robbie Lewis (Kevin Whately)was dogged and cheerful sidekick to the irascible More. As Inspector Lewis, Robbie is now a DCI. Recently widowed, he has lost some of his cheer. Being a fish out of water in a university town does not improve his outlook. But he remains a dogged and determined cop. He is aided by his assistant, DC Hathway (Laurence Fox), a former collegian who serves as Lewis’ guide to the bewildering ways of Oxford. Whately plays Lewis’ fish-out-of-water persona to a T and Fox proves a droll, bemused observer. It is fun to watch this odd couple at work. Combine with some intriguing cases and it’s a series well worth watching.
