A young woman 'Lorraine Figis' departs Richardson's Supermarket, collapses outside and later dies, soon a young artist 'Simon Hallward' dies at home, when a cigarette catches in his studio and causes an explosion. A lead takes Morse and Thursday to a commune, House Beautiful, where Simon had spent six months. The team are joined by beautiful WPC Shirley Trewlove, who has a definite effect.
For the main I enjoyed this one very much, the 60's vibe was excellently captured as always, the Supermarket itself looked great, just as I imagined. I love the house doubling up as the Richardson's property, definitely used in other dramas before, it's stunning.
I'm a huge fan of Genevieve O'Reilly, she's a brilliant actress, loved the scenes between her and Shaun. My favourite performance too from Jack Laskey as DS Jakes, he really is a brilliant actor, it's no wonder his career is on an upward trajectory, a real shame this was his last one.
A few scenes were reminiscent of a Taggart episode from a few years ago, could be Dead Giveaway, not sure. The scenes with the baby food etc.
Almost small scale for an episode of Endeavour, especially in comparison to the opener. The usual mix of wonderful production values, great script, first class acting makes for an excellent ninety minutes. 8/10
