In the first episode, Ms. Fraisel, played by Abigail Thaw, John Thaw's daughter, says to Endeavour, 'Do I know You?, when he replies in the negative, she says, 'Maybe, in a previous life.' Such a great tribute to the man who set the foundation for the success of the Morse franchise.
The wonderful Anton Lesser, whose whole portrayal of Bright was a masterclass in restrained poignancy, delivering Prospero’s words so masterfully it brought a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes. Total, complete class. Great drama, sublime finale.
Had a total life epiphany/meltdown/don't know what it was, when he spoke those lines. It was if time stood still and all my life flashed before my eyes. You are correct Fox, it was utterly sublime.
@@moniquedenouden9289 Mine too. He's been my intellectual crush for years 😂 But more than that, his Bright, from his approach to policing, his attitudes to the inferior ranks, and right down to the last mannerism, is a completely accurate portrayal of the "top brass" of that era. Bravo to all concerned!
Only recently binge watched Endeavour and I bed every moment of it. I disliked Bright to begin with, but what a wonderful person he turned out to be. Anton Lesser did an amazing job ❤
The switch at the end with the two cars is fantastic. It's always him dealing with his memories of the day when he had been there when he was young. One of the most important thing for me in this series is the sublime music, I think that with another type of music it would not have been the same.
I loved Inspector Morse as a child / teenager. I am now middle aged and love Endeavour. I thought anyone but John Thaw playing Morse would be rubbish, I am so glad to be proved wrong.
The last episode was the best television I have ever seen. The superlative writing, acting and production will stay long in my memory. The wonderful voices of the veteran actors, Roger Allam and Anton Lesser has been my guilty pleasure for a long time in audio books and plays. To hear the last speech from the Tempest was such a bonus! As for Shaun Evans....Magnificent! Thank you to all who have worked so hard to deliver such excellence.
Es un final cómo lo imaginaba, no sé si podrías decirme qué pasó con Joan, porqué no tengo modo de ver la temporada 9, en RU-vid, la sacaron por Derecho al Actor Gracias Saludos de Argentina Capital❤
Two great actors in this who deserve higher recognition Roger Allam and Anton lesser. Lovely touch having John Thaw’s daughter Abigail in there as well.
Tough! It has! There’s not a thing you can do about it! Actually, I feel exactly the same as you do! I think that it was even better than the Morse series and that was brilliant. And this ending, probably as near perfect as possible. Have a good day from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
I have never tired of rewatching Inspector Morse. I shall not tire of rewatching Endeavour. True to Colin Dexter’s original characters. That Jim Strange became Morse’s boss AND had married Morse’s true love, Joan… heartbreaking. And Barrington Pheloung’s haunting motif and score…
The final episode of Morse (The Remorseful Day) was televised in November 2000 and for over 22 years I have never been able to bring myself to watch it. And then with John Thaw passing only 15 months later my sense of loss has been even greater. One day I'll watch it so I can say 'Goodbye'.
Truly beautiful way to end one of the best shows I’ve ever watched. Just before this scene, when Thursday said his goodbyes and called him ‘Endeavour’ I lost it 😭 Sad to say goodbye to the Morse universe and know that we will never ever have any other series after Endeavour (I would have loved to see young McNutt in an episode , at least once!) RIP Colin Dexter, RIP John Thaw, what a legacy
Me too, that scene brought tears to my eyes 😢 I saw the last episode today and I cannot believe this was the end. I loved it, the best series I ever watched. Farewell ENDEAVOUR ❤️
Such a beautiful ending. I was in floods of tears as I am again now. Oh the passing of time ~ I watched the original ‘Inspector Morse’ too and loved them all. Such a fabulous show ⭐️❤️
uses and gratifications theory....it all makes us think of time and how we were when we watched it first....younger, maybe more hopeful.....maybe some people are Morses without the interest of his career.i watch new things so I do not feel this way.nostalgia is too much
This is an incredible piece of writing, acting and film and it holds so much extra poignancy for me personally. The empty police station was so like my father’s empty office and his love of Inspector Morse combined with that is almost too much to bearded . The last time I saw him was walking out on a gravel driveway and my grief is an unfulfilled one. He broke off all contact with me and my sister over 15 years ago and I’ve not been able to have any contact with him since. I dearly wish we’d have been able to watch endeavour together. If you’re out there Dad or reading this please know that I love you and there’s never a step too far that you can’t walk back again to me.
Television of the highest quality...harking back to the days of dependable plot lines ...excellent characterisation.. impeccable acting ...and a sense of values being in the right place...a pearl amongst the endless c...p..broadcast as entertainment we have to suffer daily...these days
I’ve never even seen this!! This bit is supposed to be at the end of the final episode, ‘Exeunt’? It isn’t!! I’ve been going mad. Someone please explain??
Doubtless it is the Very-Best British-series I’ve Seen in Many ,Years-I will Dearly ❤❤Miss them All😢😢 Well of Course-By their Finest Roll -The Saga-The Music-The Tender 💕 ❤Love of ..thank you All..😊😊
'Our revels now are ended' Our revels now are ended. These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits and Are melted into air, into thin air: And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, The cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep. William Shakespeare From The Tempest, Act 4 Scene 1
This was a stellar series. I fortunately have been collecting the series so I am able to keep on enjoying this A1 classy top draw series. Loved every character in it. All the goodies and all the baddies. Fabulous performances by all. Quality production. Thanks for producing a benchmark television show.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
El final me imaginé qué eta así, qué el no se hiba a quedar con Joan, porqué me vi toda la serie de Morse Adulto, pero lo qué no me imaginé que Jueves hiba asesinar
Thank you for your spot on return... from the end of the first show to the end of the last show...the Thaw family with class for a husband and father's work...at the end of the day none better to this cast and crew for it's integrity and love of character to life on screen 💚
I can only add to the many many compliments, as I too shed a tear as the series came to an end in such a classy, heartfelt way. Well done to all cast, crew, directors and writers. Bravo. Please bring back a one off 2 hour special.... highlighting the time between the start of the Morse series with John Thaw.... if I win the EuroMillions I will fund it myself!
I believe Colin Dexter has written in his Will that no other persons must ever portray Morse again. I could be wrong, but like you, I can never get enough of Endeavour Morse
Itv hasn't brought out the last episode yet for some reason and I haven't seen the end, but so glad to have seen this gorgeous scene. I am new to Australia and British drama and Endeavour is my first...💖 It truly puts US drama to shame in every way. I've never seen Morse but am going to look it up as I don't want to let this wo nderful series go....
Buscarlo yo e visto toda la serie completa de Morse , es buenísima, pero la temporada 9 me falta no la están dando por acá, me vi haga la temporada 8 Saludos Argentina Capital❤
I have watched the entirety of both Morse, and Endeavor twice. The second time through both series, I was able to focus on the character development and the performances, as the first time I was puzzling through the crime solving… the Endeavor cast, directors and writers beautifully and masterfully told the story of how young Morse became older Morse, and while young he didn’t quite have the self acceptance of his later years. Endeavor is and if itself one of the most well written and acted shows ever to be on TV, and also manages to pay tribute to a Colin Dexter, John Thaw and all the original cast of Morse. I’ll have to wait to see the final season bc I am in the US, so I’ll have to stream Inspector Lewis series!
I must admit I was not a huge morse fan but loved John thaw as an actor. However what I loved about Endeavour wS how it developed the younger Morse as a character. I watched the last episode and have to agree that it was superb snd that final scene... one thing though...i disagreethat young morse was looking at his oldet self..it was the iconic car he was eyeing😊. Can't believe Sean Evans is a scouser 😅 And Roger Allam is every middle aged woman 's crush !
Like the rest of us i have to pay a tv licence to the BBC which i wouldn't mind if they had shows like this This show I've watched from the very start and it is just a BRILLIANT drama and the ending was unbelievable. Just Brilliant and i know i will watch it again & again 👍
Such a beautiful ending, so sad though, saying goodbye to Morse, Lewis & Endeavour all in one programme. Would have loved to see him work with Mc Nutt who Morse often spoke about.
Thank you so much for posting- I had read about the ending with the two cars but seeing it was so much more-- anyway I can’t wait until I can see the final episodes here in the US…….
They both give a "nice Jag, Bro" look to eaxh other 😁 "That's a nice mk2, wouldn't mind one of them" "That's a lovely mk1, I used to have one just like it.."
The ending with young Morse passing old Morse is pure genius !!! By the way, I only recently saw the ending. Hadn't seen it earlier. And I started watching the whole series again from season 1, right away. Big fan from the Netherlands ✍️😂👍
I love this series about young Endeavor Morse. Unfortunately, I couldn't watch the Inspector Morse series, because I'm almost certain it wasn't shown here on television in Brazil. I'm very curious and will definitely watch it on RU-vid. I identify a lot with this character.
