Foyle's War is After seventh series, the show was abruptly cancelled by Simon Shaps, who was ITV's director of programmes at the time.This forced Horowitz to throw out scripts set during most of 1943 and 1944, resulting in time jumps of nine months to a year between episodes (whereas previous series had gaps of a month at most). Wildly popular, universally acclaimed, this award-winning British mystery series stars Michael Kitchen as detective Christopher Foyle, a man of few words. Set in a quiet English coastal town during WWII in London during the Cold War's early days, Foyle's War is rich in moral complexity and period details.In April 2008, the presumed final episode, "All Clear", during which the end of the war is announced, was broadcast. 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,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 continuing.
