    I watched it tonight and was very impressed. The locations were the best I've seen and the acting while a touch on the Amdram side I think worked well.

    I would have liked to have seen a bit more concentration on the suspects but as an academic piece on the subject they probably got it just about right.

    A couple of production issues I could pick up on if I was in my day job.....but I'm not....I'm a Ripper-subject enthusiast who is very contented that he spent 90 minutes watching this.

    Much better than the last one I watched "Jack the Ripper: The Definitive Story" which was just a load of rubbish.

    Well done to all those involved.

          I too am looking for this DVD in the states, I read that it is to be a two disc set with extra footage, not sure if this is true, but I hope so.

          if anyone has info on a US release please let us know

              A message from Jeff Leahy

              Hi all,

              Below is a message from Jeff Leahy -

              "Hi All

              Just to let people know that the DVD will be released soon. I was in conversation with our Distribution company yesterday who have requested a series of changes to the Artwork.

              It will be released as a 90 minute version to start. But may not be up on Amazon for a few weeks.

              Good news is that there are other plans afoot for longer play versions and related products. But that all I can say for now.

              However as i noticed a few complaints on another forum I would be grateful if the message could be spread that its in the pipeline and completed. It just needs someone to come up with a release date...

              Prices being discussed are £9.99. But I'm afraid I cant even confirm that at present. All I can give is assurances to keep as affordable as possible.

              I'll keep this thread updated over the coming weeks.

              Yours Jeff"

                    Monty: Did Jeff Leahy say anything about a region 1 DVD being produced? The price that you quoted was in pounds sterling, so I'm worried that it will only be for sale as a region 2.

                      Looks like my account has been re-enstated. Many thanks

                      The new art work should be attached and the DVD available very soon.

                      It will only be available on PAL for now but these should play on everyones computers..

                      Creating NTSC is always problematic as the discs run a differnet time

                      Thats not to say never but lets just get the damn thing out first
