The detective drama Whitechapel, which originally aired on ITV in 2009, is leaving Netflix at the end of February. The show has four seasons, each containing between three and six episodes, giving fans a little time left to watch or re-watch the series.
The show features a strong cast of well-known British actors, including Rupert Penry-Jones (known for Spooks), Steve Pemberton (Inside No. 9), and Hannah Walters (Adolescence). Viewers on IMDb have already praised the cast’s performances, with many calling them a fantastic group.
I’ve been reading the comments, and so many people agree the acting in this show is incredible! One person pointed out how amazing the cast is – seriously, so many talented actors – and when you combine that with the fantastic writing and the beautiful, detailed sets, it just works. So much of this series really hits the mark, honestly.
What to Read Next
Netflix describes the first season of Whitechapel as a thrilling mystery where a new killer starts copying the crimes of Jack the Ripper. A group of detectives and a local tour guide must work together to stop them.
The show was a hit when it premiered on ITV, attracting over 8 million viewers. It helped ITV1 achieve the highest ratings during primetime, capturing an average audience share of 28.9%.
IMDb users highly recommend Whitechapel, calling it a “must-watch.” One viewer praised its unique blend of mystery and historical darkness, setting it apart from typical detective shows. Another described it as a gripping, dark, and intense series that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Phil Davis, who played Detective Sergeant Miles in the drama Whitechapel, once called the show a dark, limited-run murder mystery, comparing it to the style of Prime Suspect.
In a 2009 interview with Digital Spy, actor Davis described his character as a truthful and capable police officer, though difficult to work alongside. He explained that his character is paired with a quickly promoted Detective Inspector, Chandler (played by Rupert Penry-Jones), who moves from the affluent Knightsbridge area to the East End and immediately begins giving orders.
Chandler is often clueless, but surprisingly, he’s often correct. The two characters frequently clash and argue.
The crime drama Whitechapel will be removed from Netflix on February 26th, so you still have a chance to watch it if you haven’t already.
Whitechapel aired on ITV, and is available now on Netflix.
The latest issue of Living Legends, a vibrant, full-color magazine dedicated to Taylor Swift, is now available! You can find it in newsagents or order it online for only £8.99. This special edition spans 100 pages and is a fantastic celebration of Taylor’s career.
