A drama set in the East End of London in 1889, during the aftermath of the "Ripper" murders. The action centres around the notorious H Division – the police precinct from hell – which is charged with keeping order in the chaotic streets of Whitechapel. Ripper Street explores the lives of characters trying to recover from the Ripper's legacy, from crimes that have not only irretrievably altered their lives, but the very fabric of their city. At the drama's heart our detectives try to bring a little light into the dark world they inhabit.
Set in Whitechapel's blood-soaked aftermath, this is dread by atmosphere rather than jolt. It works on your nerves slowly, steeping you in gaslit fog, casual brutality, and the sense that violence has permanently stained the city. The fear here is moral and lingering — the unease of order barely holding against the dark.
