Endeavour

You have to go on Gransnet afterwards to get an idea of what went on Marmark1

(I too wondered why Joan ran away)

very good,but clear as bleddy mud for me.

I'm

Thank you Alea, I stand corrected. I thought they were introduced in 1972.

The Thursday's table cloth looked like the knitted bedspreads that were fashionable then.

Why did Sam go off to the Army without a coat, despite his dad's jacket being wet in the next shot?

How sad poor Morse forever lonely.

From Wikipedia;

Double yellow lines mean no waiting at any time, unless there are signs that specifically indicate seasonal restrictions.[2] They were first introduced in the UK by section 51[3] of the Road Traffic Act 1960[4] (repealed in 1972 and replaced by later legislation )

Well, that was a plot and a half! Despite it being a bit ridiculous, I did enjoy it. I think that's down to the acting.

Just watching Coda, double yellow lines in the sixties?? I don't think so.

We were humming, 'She's Leaving Home' at the end.

There was a terrible lot of blood in the sink when the bullet came out .I thought he was going to use it to shoot a bank robber when he wrapped it in his hankie as the inspector told him his gun used the same bullets, it made me laugh. No more coughing though.

I'm hoping the spitting out of the bullet shard is a good sign for Thursday too! I'm going to miss this series (can't be doing with Vera, which is replacing it next week...)

I do wish they wouldn't do voice-overs at the end, for goodness sake it's only a few seconds of the Morse theme but some of us really would like to hear it in its entirety!

I was not sure whether to watch tonight's episode after last week's disaster but although painfully slow, it was much improved and as said, showed policing as it used to be.

Or maybe she had seen another side to her cozy Dad and wanted out?

Yes - silly Morse - just spit it out! What happened to his black girlfriend?

I couldn't understand either why she left home. I'm hoping the appearance of the bullet lodged in Inspector Thursday's body is a positive sign.

Roll on the next series.

No I couldn't either , but damn it Morse .....couldn't you just tell the girl!!

Because she had given Paul Wotsit details of her work and the routine at the bank?

So why did Joan Thursday decide she had to creep off? - couldn't see any reason myself.

Good story tonight! I felt it gave a true flavour of policing as it was and Morse came across as human, not a hero.
Is Thursday really on the way out ?

Ignore the 10 !

Poor tiger - I am a great animal lover 10

Thank you nana3, i am happy now i'm not left hanging in mid air wanting to know what happened next! As NanKate says, good review! I'm glad it was the police inspector who shot the tiger - at least he got to lay his ghost.

Im loving this so much I made DH buy me the set of Morse DVDs . It was something I never really watched first time round so Im going to give it a go now.

I do love anything set in the Endeavour period though. Its just so interesting to see the difference in so many things, not least manners;-)

Very good review of the story Nana3 respect for your good memory.

Sorry for disappearing greyduster.

The estate was going to become a safari park but it never happened except that they got some animals but then got rid of them, except the tiger, which then mauled the sister.
When she found out it was still alive she wanted to teach the brother a lesson and arranged for him to get mauled by the tiger by planting female tiger musk on him but it killed him and escaped. She stole the musk from the man whose au pair went missing, confusing that.
It killed the bird watcher whose arm was found in the river.
The chief inspector told a story about how years ago he shot a tiger in India but not before it had killed a policeman.
At the estate the sister in law with the baby went for a walk in the maze, the baby in a pram, the police arrived with guns, Morse saw the tail of the tiger disappear into the maze. After lots of scary stalking Morse ends up protecting the woman and baby by getting between her and the tiger. He tells her to run when it attacks, it does, she runs, a shot is heard, the tiger is dead, Morse is saved and who fired the shot? I think you can guess, the chief inspector.

It ended not so well by the bed of the girl who had been attacked years ago by the man who killed the au pair, Thursday and Morse talking about Morse taking his exams, poor taste.

Phew, left out some details but, probably forgotten loads but have put in enough hopefully.
