In the final episode of this series, Endeavour Morse (Shaun Evans) and his mentor Detective Inspector Fred Thursday (Roger Allam) are back solving another complex case.

When a body is found in a marshland outside of Oxford, everyone assumes it is the remains of Dr Matthew Laxman, a botanist who mysteriously disappeared near the site five years earlier.

It is revealed that the body is actually thousands of years old, but Morse and Thursday suspect there may still be clues about the missing botanist when a modern pair of glasses is also found near the body.
