What happens when you have MI-5’s Matthew Macfadyen and Jerome Flynn from Game of Thrones together in a BBC original police procedural? Why Ripper Street of course. Here’s the official synopsis:
Haunted by the failure to catch London’s most evil killer, Inspector Edmund Reid (Matthew Macfadyen) now heads up the notorious H Division, the toughest district in London’s East End. Charged with keeping order in the chaotic streets of Whitechapel, Inspector Reid is soon drawn deep into the seedy criminal underworld of Victorian London—where fear always lurks that each new murder could mark the return of The Ripper.
What do you say, are you in?
My dance card is not quite full, so I’ll certainly give this a peek.
Caught the first episode. Like the hint of modern trechnology. Plan on watching it.
Watched the first episode but I’m waiting until after I watch the second to decide if it’s a keeper.
