Endeavour's fourth season drops us right back where we were at the end of Season 3, with Joan gone, and Morse and Thursday both broken up about it. And now a serial killer's shown up... Don't you hate it when that happens?

Dr. DeBryn: It's as ripe and runny as a rancid rocqufort.

Unlike our last three seasons, each of which have started with a new year in Morse's life, this season starts only a week or two after the last one, in order to maximize the dramatic fall out from Season 3. Joan's departure has left its mark both on Morse, who is silently heartbroken and simultaneously unable to admit to it, while both his boss Thursday and his wife are empty nesters who weren't ready to be.
