News of the Times Episode 38v | 1888
Whitechapel Wednesdays - Episode 1
Begin at the beginning, it has been said.
From culling through the wealth of newspaper articles of Whitechapel, in this series we chronologically go through the papers of events in Whitechapel in 1888 leading to the accepted slayings of Jack the Ripper with a few others of a similar sort thrown in.
In our first episode, newspaper stories report the deaths of Ada Wilson, Annie Millwood and Emma Elizabeth Smith. Were these vicitims Rippers first practice runs?
Hosted by Robin Coles.
