Writer Richard Warlow seems to enjoy setting himself these impossible tasks, writing his way out of a blind alley with no jet pack.…While other shows look shiny but ring hollow, Ripper is the real thing, a gripping story, thoughtfully told.
Guardian
on Ripper Street
The visuals, stories and soap are so well defined. Ripper Street is bludgeoning its way into my affections.
The Times
on Ripper Street Series 1 - 5
Ripper Street is a well-acted, well-written and compelling mystery series. And even better, there’s no waiting around, wishing it would improve. It’s alluring from the start.
