'Endeavour' Season 5 Will Premiere in the U.S. This June

It’s finally official: Endeavour Season 5 is headed to America! Of course, this is in no way surprising, given that the drama has already been renewed for a sixth season and PBS’ Masterpiece has aired every previous outing of the mystery series to date. But, we now know the most important factor: When we’ll be seeing the latest season for ourselves.

Endeavour Season 5 will premiere on PBS stations around the country beginning Sunday, June 24. Mark your calendars. [And insert appropriate cheers and celebratory noises here.)

This time around, the Inspector Morse prequel will clock in with six episodes, rather than the standard four we’ve come to expect, as the series moves forward into the late 1960s. They’re entitled “Muse,” “Cartouche,” “Passenger,” Colours,” “Quartet” and “Requiem”.

Shaun Evans will, of course, be back as the younger version of Endeavour Morse, joined once more by Roger Allam as his trusty partner Fred Thursday.

Masterpiece confirmed the premiere news via Twitter this week.
