New episode of RIPPER STREET Premieres *** Sat MAR 15 at 9/8c *** Only on BBC AMERICA
This week, after serving more than twenty years in Newgate Gaol prison, the Irish dynamiter Aiden Galvin (guest star STANLEY TOWNSEND, Fleming), is sprung from his prison wagon while traveling through Whitechapel.
Barely a day later, he detonates a device beneath the bed of Cecil Knightly, a prominent Member of Parliament and a vociferous opponent of The Irish Home Rule movement.
Despite their outward protestations of peace, Chief Inspector Abberline is convinced the Irish Republican Brotherhood is once more about its work and orders DI Reid (MATTHEW MACFAYDEN, Anna Karenina) to send Detective Sergeant Flight (DAMIEN MOLONY, Being Human) undercover into Whitechapel’s Irish community.
