How realistic was it for JTR to disguise himself as a PC?

[Leanne]

No, because it's the old wall in Parliament Court (see above), or somewhere very similar to it. It's not the old Dorset Street or Miller's Court. It's not even White's Row.

Or maybe it's this building?

Why were they doing Ripper Walks there?

[Sam Flynn]

For that Ripper Walk video, did they use old bricks when they built the new wall?

Study when the phone scans down the passage.

[Leanne]

There was no window inside the archway, and I can't imagine why there would be. Not much point in having a window looking directly into a passage barely a metre wide.

What looks to me to be a window was probably part of the newer building. There was no car inside the archway in 1888!

Inadvertently? Or did the guide know that Kelly's true name was actually Eccentrica Gallumbits?

The video cEntertaining as that spiel was, it was highly dramatic, and inadvertently gave Mary Kelly three breasts; two on the bedside table and one in the fire.

Under that video it says this:

The murder of Jack the Ripper's final victim, Mary Kelly, described in detail on a tour through the old Whitechapel district of London. The group is standing only a few meters from where Mary Kelly was found

The video caption is incorrect, and the people who filmed it were either mistaken or misinformed. Buildings like that simply did not exist in what used to be Dorset Street after its demolition in 1928, and certainly not after the development of the White's Row car park in 1971. I know, because I've been there a lot. Rather more often than a tourist with a cell-phone who filmed a tour guide giving a spiel. Entertaining as that spiel was, it was highly dramatic, and inadvertently gave Mary Kelly three breasts; two on the bedside table and one in the fire.

[Leanne]

Not so. That footage was shot on a mobile phone, and the car park was built in 1971, decades before such technology became available. Indeed, the date under the video clip is 2011, so the car park had been there for 40 years already.

Under that video it says this:

The murder of Jack the Ripper's final victim, Mary Kelly, described in detail on a tour through the old Whitechapel district of London. The group is standing only a few meters from where Mary Kelly was found and only a few blocks from the Ten Bells pub. The video ends with an interesting theory about the nature of Jack the Ripper.

(For those interested, this was a London Walks tour -- londonwalks.com -- in December of 2010.)

Then where was it filmed? That's all I'm trying to determine,
Look outside the entry, Can that building help us pin-point the location?

It looks very much like a narrow thoroughfare called Parliament Court, just off Artillery Passage (Google Maps are your friend). Here's a photo I took there in 2009:



It's struck me as a little reminiscent of what Miller's Court might have looked like - except that it's an alleyway, rather than a dead-end courtyard.

Hi Leanne,

That's from the set of "Ripper Street". https://jtr3d.com/2017/07/20/ripper-...millers-court/
