Like many other folk, I sit down to watch "Endeavour" on TV on a Saturday night, but one episode a week is nowhere near enough, so this box set of the first five series is an absolute must! There are two episodes per DVD, and the discs come in a neat plastic box. There are a few extras, such as interviews with the actors, etc. The only criticism I have is that the episode titles are not printed on the discs so, if there's a particular one you wish to see, you'd have to look it up on imdb to check. That said, it's lovely to watch the episodes without the constant interruption of adverts, which breaks them down to about 90 minutes or so. Just make sure you switch off the doorbell and 'phone, get your favourite drink and a snack, and enjoy the nostalgia of 1960's Oxford!

Out of a number of superb detective series - many of them period-set (Foyle's War, Inspector Gently, Grantchester) this stands out. Seann Evans is not only an intelligent actor, in the mould of Michael Caine, but handsome and with interesting, mobile features. Roger Allam's character Inspector Thursday, is multi-layered and - as always - superbly acted. Generally, the plots bear scrutiny. This is heresy, I know, but both Lewis and Endeavour are as good as, if not better than, Morse. I can't recommend this series too highly, and shall binge-watch my copies greedily.

Best Morse episodes ever, Slightly spoiled by too much choral music over the soundtrack (as was the case both the original Morse and Lewis series).

Great crime drama showing the early life of Inspector Morse - explaining some of the mysteries behind the man himself not explained in the Inspector Morse series whilst delivering some brilliant story lines and characters. Love it.

Wasn't too keen on this series when first announced but when I got around to watching it my opinion rapidly changed. Perfect compliment to Morse. It retains the atmosphere of the original and the new characters are perfectly plausible and in keeping with the original series.
