Rupert Penry-Jones, Phil Davis and Steve Pemberton will reprise their roles to solve a series of copycat murders reminiscent of crimes committed by the infamous Krays.
TV’s best performing new drama of 2009, Whitechapel, starring Rupert Penry-Jones, Phil Davis and Steve Pemberton is back with another dark instalment from writers, Ben Court and Caroline Ip.
Atmospheric and brooding, Whitechapel II draws on an iconic cult crime born out of London’s East End.
After Jack the Ripper comes the gangster brutality of the Krays, and in Whitechapel II the paranoia of this era and the faded glamour of the former East End overlords characterise the drama. It is as sharp, intense and as visually distinctive as Whitechapel I with the gangster culture the Krays never far away.
