Foyle's War is a British detective drama television series set during World War II, created by screenwriter and author Anthony Horowitz, and was commissioned by ITV after the long-running series Inspector Morse came to an end in 2000. It has aired on ITV since 2002. It was axed in 2007 by director of television Simon Shaps, but positive public demand and a number of complaints about the cancellation prompted ITV to revive the series after its sixth series proved to be a ratings success.[2][3] Anthony Horowitz has suggested on his website that Foyle's War will return for an eighth series in 2013.[4]

[edit] Overview
The programme is set during, and after, the Second World War in Hastings, England, where Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle (Michael Kitchen) attempts to catch criminals who are taking advantage of the confusion the war has created. He is assisted by his driver Samantha "Sam" Stewart (Honeysuckle Weeks) and Detective Sergeant Paul Milner (Anthony Howell).
Foyle, a widower, is quiet, methodical, very sagacious, and scrupulously honest, yet he is frequently underestimated by his foes. Many of his cases concern profiteering, the black market, and murder. Foyle often comes up against high-ranking officials in the British military or intelligence services who would prefer that he mind his own business, but he is tenacious in seeking justice.
The stories are largely self-contained. There are some running strands, mainly involving the career of Foyle's son Andrew (played by Julian Ovenden), a fighter pilot in the Royal Air Force, or Foyle's continuing relationships with cameo characters.
Each episode runs for about 95 to 100 minutes, filling a two-hour time slot on ITV when commercials are included. To fit its PBS 90-minute time slot in the United States (originally part of the Mystery! series -- now called Masterpiece Mystery), the episodes -- particularly in Series 1–3 -- were shortened by several minutes each. Former PBS affiliate KCET in Los Angeles -- now an independent station -- started re-broadcasting the series in the Fall of 2011. In this incarnation, each episode was aired in two parts, each in a one-hour time slot (usually separated by a week) -- with each part running about 50-minutes. To fill out the time slot, the station aired excerpts of interviews of the Series Creator and some cast members (but, notably, not Michael Kitchen) which were recorded starting in 2002.
In a newspaper article and in his interview that accompanies the first series DVD set Anthony Horowitz was asked why he named the main character Christopher Foyle. He explained that he was seeking a name that evoked the early 1940s and thought of Foyle's Bookshop in London's Charing Cross Road, once known for its archaic practices and its owner Christina Foyle. Christopher was the nearest male name to Christina, but from 1999 following the death of Christina Foyle, control passed to her nephew Christopher Foyle, who was given a small walk-on cameo part in the episode "Bad Blood".
After six series the show was cancelled by Simon Shaps, who was ITV's director of programmes at the time.[5] In April 2008 the presumed final episode "All Clear" was aired. However, on 9 April 2008 ITV announced that it was in talks with Horowitz and Greenlit Productions to revive the series, continuing Foyle's adventures beyond VE day,[2] and some media observers saw high viewing figures for the penultimate episode (28% audience share) on 13 April that year as strengthening the case for a continuation.[6] At the time the audience figures for the final episode were released (28% and an average of 7.3 million), ITV confirmed that it had entered and was continuing "early discussions" with Horowitz and Greenlit.[3] These negotiations eventually led to the series being recommissioned for a further three episodes.[7]
Series 7 commenced filming in February 2009[7][8] and premiered on UK television 11 April 2010.[9]

[edit] Christopher Foyle
Foyle (Michael Kitchen) consistently introduces himself with the phrase (or some variation thereof), "My name's Foyle; I'm a police officer." This is typical of the modesty, courtesy and precision of speech that he displays throughout the series. Foyle is a longstanding widower; he has one son Andrew to whom he is close, although their relationship is not demonstrative. Foyle's concern for his son's safety as a fighter pilot RAF is an ongoing theme.
Foyle is himself the son of a policeman, and a veteran of World War I. He is eager to help with the war effort. He told his son that the three years he spent in the war on enlisting were the worst in his life, and reluctantly admitted that he had to kill. He requests a transfer to the War Department several times in the first two series of the show but, by the end of the third series, he appears to have accepted that this will not happen and that his detective work is just as important, in its own way, to the war effort. He argues that innocent victims of murder should not be forgotten just because there's a terribly costly war on.
He has high moral standards, is scrupulously honest and highly sagacious. He is portrayed as moderately liberal for a man of his time: he is compassionate when he discovers that one of Andrew’s friends is homosexual (“Among the Few”) and expresses distaste for prosecuting an attempted suicide (“Casualties of War”). (Homosexual activity and suicide were criminal offences at the time.) He is also reluctant to harass a left-wing activist purely for his political views (“War of Nerves”). Also consistent with the value he places on human life, he says that the accidental manslaughter of a pregnant woman took two lives (“Among the Few”).
He is unfailingly loyal to his colleagues and expects the same from them. This is seen particularly in "The White Feather" when he reproaches Sgt. Milner for disloyalty, and in "The Russian House", where he criticizes Milner's disrespectful attitude towards him and Sam, in spite of the fact that they no longer work together. In turn, he demonstrates trust in his colleagues. He's quick to forgive Milner, and later believes in Milner's innocence when he is suspected of involvement in his estranged wife's murder (in "Bleak Midwinter"). He also displays a fatherly concern for Sam.
Foyle relaxes by trout-fishing, at which he is very skilled and which supplements his wartime rations. He also plays golf, less expertly. He is often accompanied by his son or his uniformed counterpart, Hugh Reid. Cameo and guest characters are occasionally shown with him on these outings, enabling the exchange of information important to the plot.
[edit] Paul Milner
Milner (Anthony Howell) was a policeman before the war; he left to enlist in the army. He was involved in the British Norwegian Campaign and lost a leg in Trondheim. In episode one, he is seen recovering in hospital. Foyle encourages him to rejoin the police and he remains with the Hastings department for the duration of the war. He also appears to be the only ranked detective in the station besides Foyle. At the start of series 6, Milner is strongly considering a transfer due to his dissatisfaction with his new superior, but decides against it once Foyle comes out of retirement to investigate the new DCS's murder.
Milner's relationship with his wife Jane becomes increasingly strained throughout the series; she does not seem to have come to terms with his injury. After a long separation, during which Milner has begun a relationship with Edith Ashford, Jane returns from her family in Wales ("Bleak Midwinter") to attempt to begin again with Milner, but she is murdered before this can come to pass. In a conversation just before Jane's death, Milner lies to Edith that he has no family. In the intended final episode "All Clear", Edith gives birth to a baby girl, to be called Clementine after the prime minister's wife.
At the beginning of series 7, Milner has been promoted to Detective Inspector, with jurisdiction in the Brighton area. While investigating his first case, which happens to involve both Foyle and Sam, Milner is portrayed as being somewhat insecure in his new position of authority, and his attempts to hide this insecurity cause him to act in an abrupt, dismissive manner towards his old colleagues. This earns him an unusually sharp reproach from Foyle by the end of the case.
[edit] Samantha Stewart
Sam (Honeysuckle Weeks) joins the Mechanised Transport Corps at the outbreak of the war. She is seconded to the police force as a driver in the first episode to relieve staff shortages within the police force, and becomes Foyle's driver.[12] She is very enthusiastic about police work, offering unsolicited advice and help to Foyle and Milner—despite Foyle's initial instructions that she was not to discuss police work. As the series progresses, they come to rely on her assistance more and more. In "Plan of Attack" we learn that she left police service soon after Foyle's resignation, but in that episode she returns to be his driver on his rejoining the force.
Sam has a healthy appetite; her struggles with rationing are a constant theme. She invites herself to eat with Foyle on a number of occasions and covets a turkey (kept for evidence) in "Bleak Midwinter".
Sam's father and uncle are Church of England vicars. Her father, the Rev. Iain Stewart (Stephen Moore), visits her in Hastings ("Eagle Day"). He wants her to return home but comes to see that her work for the police is important (after discussions with Foyle, and using his university training in art to help Milner solve a crime). Sam stays with her uncle, the Rev. Aubrey Stewart (Brian Poyser), at his vicarage in Levenham during the episode "The French Drop", and Foyle houses him during an ecumenical conference near Hastings in "Plan of Attack". In the same episode, she states that all her uncles are vicars.
Sam becomes friendly with Andrew Foyle and, after a while, is involved romantically. The two attempt to keep their attachment from Andrew's father, fearing his disapproval. Sam provides support to Andrew when he suffers from shell shock in "Enemy Fire". Their relationship ends when Andrew sends her a "Dear Jane letter" in "Invasion". She becomes fond of American Private Joe Farnetti (Jonah Lotan) but turns him down when he asks her to marry him, though the relationship appears to have continued until sometime after D Day, since she complains in "Broken Souls" that he "ran off with some French girl". Andrew returns in "All Clear" and asks Sam to forgive him and as they go out to celebrate VE day it seems that their romance will be re-established, though it is not; in the seventh series, Sam has a new love interest, Adam Wainwright, played by Max Brown, a former Bletchley Park codebreaker who proposed to her in that series' final episode.
Series 7 begins in June 1945 and Sam has found a job as housekeeper to a wealthy artist. Sam seems to have lost her sense of purpose along with her uniform and position as Foyle's driver.[13]
[edit] Andrew Foyle
Andrew Foyle (Julian Ovenden) is Christopher Foyle's only child. At the outbreak of the war he was a student but joined the RAF in "The German Woman". Undergoing training as a fighter pilot in Scotland, he is later posted to the south coast, where he is involved in radar trials ("Eagle Day"). He sees action in the Battle of Britain. Eventually, in "Enemy Fire", suffering from combat fatigue stemming from almost-constant flying, coupled with grief at the loss of many friends, he briefly goes AWOL. His superior, Wg Cdr Turner (Martin Turner), is understanding and transfers him to a training unit.
Andrew is seen with a girlfriend in "Among the Few" but the relationship doesn't last. For a time, he walks out with Sam Stewart but he is posted to Debden as a training officer in "Enemy Fire" (his penultimate on-screen appearance). Soon after this posting he ends his relationship with Sam by letter (read in voice-over only in "Invasion") after entering into a short-lived relationship with another girl there. He is subsequently promoted to Squadron Leader and posted to Malta on active service, but after a serious bout of sinusitis ruins his eyesight he is demobbed and sent home. However, he remains an unseen character, referred to solely in dialogue and props, until his return to Hastings in May 1945 during the intended last episode ("All Clear"). Apologising to Sam for his poor treatment of her, he tries to resume their relationship — she, though initially only able to accept that they meet as "friends", appears to be thawing towards him by the end of the episode. In the seventh series, he is mentioned as living in London, but he is not referred to when his father visits London or when he leaves for America.
[edit] Historical accuracy
The series is notable for its claim to attention to historical detail and the drama is frequently moved along by historical events of World War II. Creator Anthony Horowitz considered that to honour the veterans of the war it was important to get the details correct.[14] As the series progressed, Horowitz became more interested in the 'murder mystery' format than the portrayal of history and exploration of the Home Front.[15] However, the Imperial War Museum is credited in an advisory capacity in some episodes.
There are a few anachronisms and inaccuracies in the series. The extended harbour arm in Hastings, built in 1976, has been shown several times throughout the series.[16] None of the main cast members are ever seen smoking, most unusual for the 1940s. Foyle's rank of Detective Chief Superintendent was not introduced by London's Metropolitan Police until 1949. In the episode "Bad Blood", which takes place in 1942, the drug streptomycin was used to cure Sam's anthrax infection, but streptomycin was not isolated until October 1943.[17] Wartime field trials of anthrax were conducted only on Gruinard Island off Scotland's north west coast near Ullapool and not on the south coast as depicted. The episode 'Casualties of War' portrayed a naval captain wearing only a moustache with no beard. Though not unheard of, this would have violated admiralty regulations, which allow a moustache only with a beard.[18]
Foyle's War also incorrectly portrays American soldiers on at least two occasions. During Invasion, which took place in March 1942, members of the U.S. First Infantry Division were based in Hastings. However, elements of the "Big Red One" did not arrive until August, briefly staying in Dorset until their deployment for Operation Torch in North Africa. Moreover, Joe, the Italian-American soldier who woos Sam Stewart throughout Series 4, erroneously refers to his basic training period at Fort Benning, which is actually located in Georgia, not Virginia, as the script indicated. In the same episode, Foyle repeatedly enters the US base as part of his investigation; this would not have been permitted in reality. Any questioning of US military personnel to assist a British police investigation would have been performed by US military police.[citation needed]
In one episode the lights in a house are said to have fused and remedied by replacing the "ring main fuse". In reality "Ring Mains" were not introduced until the new electricity regulations in 1947 (which introduced the 13 Amp plug) and the lighting would in any case never be connected to a "ring main" but to a separate "lighting circuit".
The scrupulous approach to authenticity apparent in the visual design of the series is less evident in the script, which often includes words and phrases not used in wartime Britain. One example is "all-singing, all-dancing", which, though it had been used in publicity for the 1929 musical "Broadway Melody", was not in general conversational use until the 1970s. Some others are often comparatively recent imports from American usage, such as 'train station', 'filling out' a form (rather than 'filling in') and someone who is in charge of an organisation describing himself as 'heading it up'.
Some episodes show a Bush DAC90 radio in Foyle's office. This iconic bakelite model was introduced in 1946.[19] In one episode Milner tells Foyle that his regiment is sailing for the Middle East the next day, but not even the commander of the convoy would know where his orders would take him, and any breach in security like Milner's would open the offender to very grave criminal charges.
In another episode workers remove recent bomb debris from a car in the street a couple of days before the July 1945 election. The last V-1 reached England on 27 March 1945, and the last V-2 on 29 March 1945.[20]
In 'Eagle Day' (Series 1, episode four) set in the summer of 1940, Pilot Officer Andrew Foyle is flying a Spitfire to assist calibration of RDF (radar). The aircraft shown is a cannon-armed, four-blade Spitfire (possibly a Mk IX) which would not have been in RAF service until at least 1942.
[edit] Awards
Foyle's War was nominated for best drama series at the 2003 BAFTA Television Awards in 2003. The series also received a nomination in 2002 in the category of Production Design.[21]

In both the UK and the US, the currently-available DVD boxed sets are packaged such that UK broadcast Series Four and Five are combined and sold as Series 4 (or “Set 4” in the US). [The earlier UK 2-disc DVD releases were not marketed with any Series or Set numbers, and were identified by episode titles only.] Accordingly, UK broadcast Series Six is sold as Series 5 in the UK and Set 5 in the US; and UK broadcast Series Seven is due to be released as Series or Set 6. Therefore, in both the UK and US, the DVD sets now reflect the US, rather than UK, broadcast series numbers. Within both the UK and US, the DVDs are distributed by Acorn Media Group. All seven series are currently available on Blu-ray in Australia (Region B). Series 4 and 5 combined in one case.
[edit] Worldwide screenings
The show began airing Africa-wide in 2009 on the pay service DStv on the Universal Channel.[24] DStv is broadcast from South Africa. In the US it is aired on PBS. It is broadcast in Canada on TVOntario. In Australia it is shown on ABC 1. In Romania and Russia it airs on Hallmark. In Finland it is broadcast on YLE TV1. In Norway it is broadcast on NRK1. In Portugal, it was broadcast on RTP2. In Denmark it is aired on DR1.
