Whether it's a Jack the Ripper copycat committing horrific murders in the Whitechapel district of London, or gruesome crimes in the East End prompting a look back at 300 years of history, it's up to the investigative team led by Detective Inspector Joseph Chandler, Detective Sergeant Ray Miles and jack-of-all-trades historical adviser Edward Buchan to decipher the nightmares of the past to help solve the horrors of the present. Summoning ghosts, however, can be a tricky proposition, especially when it leads Chandler, Miles and Buchan to places darker still.

John Crace Guardian 11/26/2013
There's a fine line between a script that makes you work hard to follow what's going on and one where you very quickly stop bothering as you've long since ceased to care. Whitechapel more often than not steps on the wrong side. Go to Full Review
Brian Viner Independent (UK) 11/26/2013
Phil Davis is as watchable as ever as the embittered, seen-it-all Sergeant Miles, and I like Steve Pemberton's hammy turn as an amateur sleuth, who once again is three steps ahead of the professionals. Go to Full Review

It was never terribly formidable even at its initial best, it could be smoothly entertaining in a hectic, frothy way. Go to Full Review
Matt Roush TV Guide 03/28/2012
Turns out the new breed of bogeymen can be just about as mystifying and terrifying, if not as memorable. Go to Full Review

Details Episode 2 Aired Oct 18, 2010 Miles learns of a shooting at The Blind Beggar, a notorious pub frequented by the Krays, targeting criminal Billy Bunhill; Chandler realizes that the murder mirrors George Cornell's killing by Ronnie Kray in 1966. Details Episode 3 Aired Oct 25, 2010 With the body count rising and nothing conclusive to pin on the twins, Chandler and his team have no option but to play the Krays at their own game; as time ticks down, the team is forced underground.
