I have been looking for the past few days. Started to watch "Ripper Street" Looks like a good one!! Quote: A new drama set in the East End of London in 1889 during the aftermath of Jack The Ripper murders. The infamous H Division - the police precinct charged with keeping order in the district of Whitechapel- is in a chaotic state trying to keep order after a tumultuous time for London and reported infamously worldwide Ripper Street is a BBC TV series set in Whitechapel in London's East End in 1889, six months after the infamous Jack the Ripper murders. The series stars Matthew Macfadyen, Jerome Flynn, and Adam Rothenberg. The first episode was broadcast on 30 December 2012 during BBC One's Christmas schedule. It began airing in the US on BBC America on 19 January 2013.[1] Ripper Street returned for a second eight-part series on 28 October 2013.[2][3] On 4 December 2013, Digital Spy reported that series two would be the last; this was due to lower viewing figures than expected.[4][5] Then on 11 December 2013, Daily Variety reported negotiations between Tiger Aspect, the show's producer, and LOVEFiLM to fund future episodes, similar to Netflix's funding of episodes of Arrested Development.[6] On 26 February 2014, it was confirmed that Amazon Prime Instant Video (formerly known as LOVEFiLM) will revive the show, with filming to begin in May 2014.[7] (Wikipedia) Acting is good shrouded with mystery an interesting period piece....

An excellent period Police show that really didn't have much to do with Jack the Ripper except the area he did his killing. They are making a third season - thankfully it was very well done the acting not too shabby either..... Next on the To watch list "Luther" with Idris Elba.....
