Ripper Street

Jane Eyre

This 2006 BAFTA- and Primetime Emmy Award–winning BBC drama is an adaptation of the classic novel.

Orphaned Jane Eyre (Ruth Wilson) escapes harsh conditions at her boarding school when she is hired as a governess on Mr. Rochester’s estate.

Their growing relationship is threatened by Rochester’s shocking secret.

This British crime drama is set in 1889, and the police unit, H Division, has been unable to catch the notorious Jack the Ripper. As more women in Whitechapel are found dead, investigators wonder if the infamous murderer is still among them. The series’ stars Matthew Macfadyen (center), Jerome Flynn (left), Adam Rothenberg (right), and MyAnna Buring.
