Filming for season nine is currently underway
"Russell always knew where he wanted the series to end, and that Remorseful Day is nearly upon us! We’d like to thank Shaun and Roger and all the other members of the Endeavour family on and off screen, and to the show’s fans both in the U.K. and abroad."
He went on to tease "many surprises" in the upcoming three episodes, as well the return of some familiar faces.
