The Yorkshire Ripper murdered 13 women and terrorised the North West between 1975 and 1980
ITV has given viewers a first look at an upcoming true crime series about the Yorkshire Ripper. The Long Shadow, detailing the desperate five-year hunt for serial killer Peter Sutcliffe, is a seven-part series set to screen later in September.
ITV says the series, written by George Kay who wrote Hijack starring Idris Elba, sensitively focuses on the lives of the victims who crossed the killer's path and those of the officers at the heart of the police investigation. The Long Shadow aims to bring a new perspective to a well-documented story, with the victims, their families and the survivors at the heart of the series.
Jasmine Lee-Jones plays Marcella Claxton, who survived a violent ambush by Sutcliffe in 1976, while Molly Wright is Donna Deangelo, Liz White is PS Meg Winterburn and Shaun Dooley is DCS Chris Gregg. The cast also includes Alexa Davies, Chloe Harris, Stephen Tompkinson, Jack Deam, Michael McElhatton, Adam Long, Ruth Madeley, Dorothy Atkinson, Rob James-Collier, Charley Webb, Steven Waddington and Kris Hitchen.
"The impact on the lives of those who live on after the death of their loved one remains to this day. Those who cannot escape what happened, who must sit with their incomprehensible trauma for decades after, enduring their own life sentences.
