These programs are always rather cheekily recorded and added on youtube days later so I wouldn't worry too much.

Can someone put those of us without Discovery out of our misery and tell us who her suspect is?

If he's too modest to say it himself, I will.
Our own John Bennett is in this quite a bit.

Product Description
For a hundred and twenty years, the identity of the Whitechapel murderer known to us as Jack the Ripper has both eluded us and spawned a veritable industry of speculation. This book names him. Mad doctors, Russian lunatics, bungling midwives, railway policemen, failed barristers, weird artists, royal princes and white-eyed men. All of these and more have been put in the frame for the Whitechapel murders. Where ingenious invention and conspiracy theories have failed, common sense has floated out of the window. M.J. Trow, in this gripping historical reinvestigation, cuts through the fog of speculation, fantasy and obsession that has concealed the identity of the most famous serial murderer of all time. He profiles a previously unknown suspect and provides a new motive for the killings and he also proves that the Ripper killed seven women not five. The book is published to accompany a major TV documentary and will change the course of Jack the Ripper history forever.
About the Author
M.J. Trow has written highly praised historical biographies as well as studies of true crime. He is also a very successful novelist. Among his recent publications are lives of Boudicca, Vlad the Impaler, Kit Marlowe, the hero of the Charge of the Light Brigade, Captain William Morris, War Crimes: Underworld Britain in the Second World War and Foul Deeds and Suspicious Deaths in the Isle of Wight. He has produced several best-selling accounts of criminal cases, in particular volumes on Derek Bentley, the Wigwam murder and Jack the Ripper. But he is perhaps best known for his many novels which include the Lestrade and Maxwell series.

JTR Killer Revealed
http://press.discovery.com/uk/dsc/pr...ller-revealed/
In late 1888 Jack the Ripper launched his infamous reign of terror on the streets of London’s East End, murdering at least five women and leaving their corpses hideously mutilated. To this day the case remains one of history’s greatest mysteries: a seemingly motiveless crime, unmatched in brutality, with a gallery of suspects, including a member of the British royal family.
Now historian Mei Trow is poised to rock the world of Ripperology with a powerful new theory about the killer’s identity - the result of two years of exhaustive research. Pairing the hi-tech investigative techniques of his predecessors with good old-fashioned detective work on the ground, Trow returns to the streets of Whitechapel to track down clues vital to his theory, delving deep into Victorian public records and narrowing down the area where his suspect lived, worked and stalked his prey.
