Whitechapel - Season 1 (2009)

Strong violence

In this 3 part gripping drama, the streets of Whitechapel are awash with blood. A murderer stalks the night, picking off vulnerable women and leaving them brutally butchered. For media savvy DI Chandler it’s his first big murder case; - for front-line, hard-bitten DS Miles, he’s now saddled with a boss who would rather talk about Emotional Intelligence. Renowned Ripperologist Edward Buchan draws their attention to the similarities between the Jack the Ripper killings in 1888 and the modern-day murder and the race is on to catch the copycat killer before he strikes again.
