ITV has commissioned a sixth series of hugely popular detective drama, Endeavour, following successful ratings and critical acclaim for the fifth series. Co-produced by leading indie Mammoth Screen and MASTERPIECE, the smart and savvy Inspector Morse prequel charts the career of Endeavour Morse as he rises up through the ranks, with each feature-length film investigating a new intricately plotted case. The new set of films will see Shaun Evans reprise his titular role as DS Endeavour Morse, and celebrated stage and screen actor Roger Allam return as mentor DI Fred Thursday. Each story will be written by Russell Lewis, who contributed to Inspector Morse and has written each of the 23 Endeavour screenplays so far. Receiving praise from critics and viewers alike, the drama has gone from strength to strength since its first outing as a one-off film in 2012 to mark the 25th anniversary of Inspector Morse on ITV. The latest series launched with consolidated figures of 6.7m and 25% a share, with the consolidated figures for the first four films the highest for three years. Filmed in and around Oxford, the new set of films will be set in 1969 and go into production later this year for transmission in 2019. Mammoth Screen’s Damien Timmer executive produces, alongside writer and creator Russell Lewis and WGBH’s Rebecca Eaton. Deanne Cunningham (Cold Feet) will produce the new series. Creator, Russell Lewis said: “As our story reaches the last year of the 1960s, and mankind makes its giant leap, all at #TeamEndeavour look forward to exploring further early chapters in the casebook of Colin Dexter’s beloved creation.” ITV’s Head of Drama, Polly Hill added: “Endeavour continues to be hugely popular with ITV audiences and we’re delighted to be bringing viewers more films to enjoy. Thanks to Russell Lewis’s consistently intriguing scripts and the excellent production values at Mammoth Screen, it is a high quality drama that ITV is immensely proud of.” ITV Studios Global Entertainment distribute the drama internationally.。一九一二年的广州，尚武成风，武馆林立，其中由欧阳彪开设的武馆颇有名望。彪有一子一女欧阳昌及欧阳惠兰，兰聪慧贤淑，昌则好赌成性更欠下赌债而远走南洋。彪对昌已不予寄望，一心将衣钵传予忠厚女婿顾坚诚。一次，诚与兰往肇兴购药时，偶遇前清武状元荣德于火车上被乘警凌辱，幸得诚解围，诚欣赏德武艺超群，德顺利成为武馆助教。但德与彪的继室侯荷花多次起冲突，更被花讽刺，德深感受辱。诚为鼓励德振作，不惜为德捏造出生地点，取得参加“广东省拳王大赛”资格。于比赛前夕，德与花又起冲突，新仇旧怨下，德竟将花和彪杀死，弃尸制药铁房内，德更将彪的药方据为己有。德杀人后脸不改容，更赢得“广东省拳王”宝座，诚及兰衷心替德高兴。德胜出后名利双收，托词有一祖传秘方，武术总会会长及警察局长以“七省拳王”为德的囊中物，因利之合作开设药厂，并定名为“七省制药”，从此众人命运开始转变。。
