Lewis Peek, who played Ted Carkeek in the second series of BBC hit Poldark, is set to return on TV screens this year after joining the cast of ITV’s Endeavour for its fifth season.

The Plymouth born actor will play new recruit Detective Constable George Fancy, whom Inspector Morse (Shaun Evans) has to reluctantly mentor. As well as starring in the ITV show, the 24 year old is currently filming for the mini-series Shortflix, set for release this March.
