Episode 1 - Pilot

Marking the 25th anniversary of the first episode of Inspector Morse, ITV1 presents a drama exploring the early years of Colin Dexter's legendary detective. In 1965, young Detective Constable Endeavour Morse has become disillusioned with the job - but then the search for a missing schoolgirl draws him back to Oxford, the city which will shape and define his destiny. As he gets deeper into a full-blown murder investigation led by Detective Inspector Fred Thursday, Morse finds himself side-lined, discredited and at a dead end. As he tries to face down the demons of his past, Morse begins his own quest for justice, risking everything in the hunt for a truth that will haunt him for the rest of his life
