Nice one, no spoilersOn episode 6 now and throughly enjoying it.
Some great actors in it.
I recently watched this 2 parter documentary called Yorkshire Ripper: The Secret Murders on itvX as there were certainly more victims but the poor police work and attitudes didn't helpThere has been a good book released in the last 2 years called the secret victims which is a great read. I wouldn’t say the author has got everything right but I do believe there are many other victims out there not attributed to him. For someone as prolific as him why were there no other murders or attacks between 1969 his arrest for going equipped with a hammer and 1975 the McCann murder.
One of the best dramatisations of a true story I have seen.Nice one, no spoilers
I think we can all agree on that.One of the best dramatisations of a true story I have seen.
This is for the victims and their families.

Think somewhere in his book our ex chairman Bob muarray was questioned over itUsed to visit a mate who was at Uni in Leeds at the time of The Ripper. Always remember the looks I got when in the pub ordering drinks at the bar with my Sunlun accent.
My brother , who was living in Chelsea at the time , was also interviewed by the Police. Crazy times.
Yes...I noticed this as well...the only thing I can think is...her family didn't give consent for ITV to use her name in the drama maybe?It’s bound to have been said in the thread but why on earth do they have a fictional ripper victim in ‘Donna Deangelo’ instead of Yvonne Pearson?
Im sure her kid will want the distance himself psychologically and socially from his mam being a sex worker , getting bashed in the face and forced into bloweysYes...I noticed this as well...the only thing I can think is...her family didn't give consent for ITV to use her name in the drama maybe?

I'm not sure that they need the families permission if it's based on a book about the case.I thought it was Margurite Walls she replaced, but I'm probably wrong.
It must be because the families refused permission.
