A brilliant dramatisation, 17 November 2000
10/10
Author: (cbeach1010@aol.com) from Banbury, England

Very well done dramatic reconstruction of the events leading up to the eventual arrest of the Yorkshire Ripper. Richard Ridings is an excellent and under-used actor. I hope we can see him in lots more (apart from 'Fat Friends' which has just finished screening). Also, please, whoever is responsible, release "This is Personal.." on video so we can keep it! I taped it at the time but managed to tape over!
