London – 27th September 2016 – Amazon today announces that the final series of RIPPER STREET will launch exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in the UK, with all six episodes available from 12th October.
The thrilling final series contains six episodes, which make up one single story. Our heroes become fugitives, forced to operate outside the law as they pursue the most insidious enemy they have encountered yet.
Written and created by Richard Warlow and produced by Tiger Aspect Drama and Lookout Point, Series Five of the critically-acclaimed drama RIPPER STREET sees Inspector Reid (Matthew Macfadyen, The Enfield Haunting) Homer Jackson (Adam Rothenberg, The Immigrant) and ‘Long’ Susan Hart (MyAnna Buring, The Twilight Saga) hunting a serial killer (Jonas Armstrong, Robin Hood) with subhuman desires, but a superhuman ability to avoid apprehension. Series Five also sees the return of a familiar foe in Detective Inspector Jedediah Shine (Joseph Mawle, In the Heart of the Sea) who returns to Whitechapel to hunt down its newest fugitives.
Ahead of the launch of Series Five on 12th October, Amazon Prime members can catch up with all four seasons, available now for unlimited streaming, including the most recent fourth series which saw David Threlfall (Shameless), Matthew Lewis (Happy Valley) and David Warner (Titanic, Planet of the Apes) appear alongside series regulars Macfadyen, Rotherberg, Buring, and Jerome Flynn (Game of Thrones).
