Endeavor (serial)

Season 7

Morse, Thursday, Strange and Bright are back at it, pursuing two sets of serial killers in 1970 Oxford. The first along a canal towpath and the second a series of fatal accidents. Seems like a lot of murder going on for a small town. Add to this the conflict and tension in the personal lives of Morse (an affair), Thursday (fear of aging out) and Bright (his wife battling cancer), and seeing how all of that interpersonal angst is really tied into the cases. As is the pattern, all of these multiple threads of stories all weave into a single fabric of plot, with everything tying together in the end. And in good murder mystery fashion, there are enough false flag clues thrown about to keep the viewer engaged in "figuring things out" as the story unfolds. Well done BBC.
