It has happened at last. After tonight’s broadcast of the Endeavour episode Quartet we have not only one actor who has appeared in all three series in the Morse universe but we have two.
The two actors are Andrew Paul and Richard Durden. Andrew Paul appeared in the Morse episode, Deceived by Flight, the Lewis episode, Intelligent Design as Ron Tibitt and the Endeavour episode Quartet as Joe Dozier. Richard Durden appeared in the first Morse episode Dead of Jericho, the Lewis episode The Soul of Genius and the Endeavour episode Quartet.
To celebrate here is a video of both actors appearances in all three series.
I knew it! As soon as I saw Mr Dozier 🙂
I wonder how many people will watch The Dead of Jericho on ITV3 tomorrow morning and think, hmmm that chap playing Alan/Tony Richards sure looks familiar…
Looking forward to your full commentary on this episode! I thought there was a lot to like, but a few faults as well.
Wouldn’t the first be Colin Dexter?!?!?
Well technically Colin wasn’t an actor as he readily admitted. I was referring to main actors within the three series.
I only hope that Prof Richmond was listening to his music on a Richards turntable 😉
Thank you Christopher for your views and comments on the episodes x
What an absolute treat this post was! I’m delighted, and hope they will try and use more actors from the earlier shows. Fun to get a glimpse of Endeavour, though I am avoiding all info about it until it comes over here. Thanks so much.
Glen Davies also achieved the Trifecta with Morse (Twilight of the Gods), Lewis (Intelligent Design), and Endeavour (Lazaretto).
Hi Jeffrey. I never commented on Jeffrey as he has a non speaking part in all three series and as such it’s not the same as the main characters.
