    • Trivia
      Was entirely shot in the East End of London, mostly on original locations and mostly at night.
    • Goofs
      The Met don't use interview rooms with two way mirrors. That's an Americanism.
    • Alternate versions
      The BBC U.S. DVD release under the box title of "Whitechapel: The Ripper Returns" features the first three episodes with a running time of 136 minutes. The program on the disc gives the title as simply "Whitechapel."

    Another good British Who-Done-It but

    For some reason, it seems older than it is. As if it were done in the late 90s or early 2000s instead of later. Lots of good stories and characters and side stories, but the thing that cost it a star for me was the fancy schmancy camera work that almost gives me an epilepsy attack. It's all whishy when there's no need for it other than someone with a new toy. I like that the cops are real and we get to know some of them on a more complex level.

    The seasons are short - 3 episodes - so don't get too comfortable. This is a good binge program.
