The first episode of the new series of Endeavour set in the 1960s and the prequal to the much loved Inspector Morse series aired this Sunday on ITV.
In the first scene, which is an aerial shot of Broad Street in Oxford, our Morse look-a-like Jaguar MK2 can be spotted as one of two Jaguar MK2s resembling the original Morse Jaguar that were used in the scene. These little teasers are dropped in by the producers from time to time. For example the original Morse Jaguar made an appearance in the pilot episode of Endeavour, it was for sale in a second hand car lot visited by the young Morse as part of his investigation. Another regular is author of the Morse books, Colin Dextor. He often makes cameo appearances in the Morse, Lewis (the spin off series after Morse died) and Endeavour series.

This car belongs to a musician friend of ours and is available for weddings through Henley Classic Car Hire. George the owner of the car was approached via the Jaguar Enthusiasts Club by the production company who were looking for cars similar to the original Morse Jaguar. In the original Morse series the Jag was driven by John Thaw who played Inspector Morse.
