Author: codebreaker    Time: 12-29-2012 16:16     Subject: Ripper Street Season 1-3 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Ripper Street Premiered on BBC One on December 30, 2012



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.

Taking his uniform off before getting the Inspector from the bare knuckle fight was quick thinking and the way they escaped when trapped in the fire was impressive but loosing most of the photo evidence was bad luck and if killing hooker isn't bad enough they pay with fake money which turn out to be their down fall as the knew who had been using it

Thomas Gower being the main suspect was unfortunate but the 14-year-old refusing to talk didn't help and I cant believe he didn't feel her steeling his ring but getting caught was more believable

You can understand the panic surrounding the sudden cholera outbreak but how some of them were linked was unexpected as they were cross-dressers and the hidden room at the flour mill and how they tested the cure was interesting

Wow what they was going to do to the girl that witnessed the murder was diabolical but the way she confronted the man that had her as a slave was great and poetic justice the he got electrocuted on the tracks

It's a shame Drake's was dragged away from his attempted to courtship with Rose but he does seem to be obsessed with her which isn't going to end well considering she is a working girl, Drake joining the masterminded behind the robberies was bizarre but at leased he helped stopping them

The fight against the international terrorism was disturbing but Homer going undercover was dangerous as the British government was behind it and was using him as a scape goat but Homer getting the better of them was great

The young woman discovered murdered in a stairwell was interesting as it was just after she gave birth in the maternity ward but discovering she had a tail was a surprise and they were lucky to save the baby

The council man being abducted from his table at the theatre was clever as nobody seen or heard anything and the fact the kidnappers are a female gang was a surprise but if the men are responsible for the their injuries they deserves anything they the girls do to them, Susan still trying to help the after being abducted and attacked was surprising

If Daniel swallowing the stone wasn't painful enough getting it back out must of been worse but the fact they chop off hands for stealing he took a hell of a risk, It looks like Albert walking in cost a man his life and blew the case as he was the only witness

Jackson being kicked out of bed for snoring was amusing and that train robbery was a disaster waiting to happen with one close call before causing a crash with a passenger train right on Reid's doorstep killing over 50 people

I know killing the wife was an accident but why they had a child hidden in their basement was bizarre and Susan protecting Capshaw is disappointing and Susan telling Reid that the girl had died since being rescued was tragic as it looks like she's his daughter

I wonder it the dead clairvoyant seen his own death, well he should of if he was any good and Susan is taking a hell of a risk continuing to care for Matilda but planing to send her to Switzerland was understandable, the grieving widow killing her husband and mistress was karma for faking his death

Drake finding Reid hiding in a Margate beach was great as he now knows Matilda is still alive and Susan loosing her was probable a lucky break as I'm sure Reid would of killed her, Harry picked the wrong girl to try and pimp out and I cant believe Susan tried to kill Read

Susan is lucky Reid is in a coma after the shooting but things could be awkward if he remembers and Drake could of picked a better time to confront Rose but demanding that she tell her fiancé about their relationship was a little predictable and the young copper was lucky they found him in time as they had killed two

Author: codebreaker    Time: 8-21-2016 12:10     Subject: 3x06 The Incontrovertible Truth

Reid returning back to work so soon was surprising but arresting an aristocrat for being suspected of murder was one hell of a way to return but confessing was bizarre as she was high and I'm not surprised the cop screamed out when Mimi stood on his swollen toe, trying to use finger-printing to prove she didn't kill the woman was a bold move

Susan facing the death penalty was surprising considering she helped bring down her father but faking her hanging was impressive as nobody will be looking for her and I'm guessing the Indian commander knew he was identifying his son from the ring but Reid returning to re-investigate the case made by Drake and Jackson did seem bizarre

It's a good job Matilda's father Reid was in ear shot when she found the dying boy and what a shame Susan and Homer have to live in secret without their son but so much for her keeping a low profile, Reid believing the woman about her missing son was nice considering she looks like she has a mental problem but what he discovered at the home was sickening and I hope he hangs

What a shame Thomas was suspected of the brutally murder of a footballer as he was that close to Drake he invited him for diner but it sounds like he is is suffering PTSD thanks to Drake sending him to war and Susan wanting to see her son was predictable but being seen was careless

Drake telling Rose she couldn't of seen Susan as he seen her hang was lucky as if she was believed Susan would be in trouble and Thomas turning up dead was bound to put Drake on a war path to find his killer but him questioning whether he sent an innocent man to the gallows was understandable as his injuries were similar
