A new seven-part ITV series focuses on the victims behind the headlines
Willow Grylls, executive producer for the series, added that stories surrounding the murders tend to focus on Sutcliffe rather than the women and their families, something the team wanted to redress.
She said: “This awful tragedy is one of the biggest crime stories of the last 100 years. It is definitely part of our social history. Yet it generally retold in two ways. “One focuses on Peter Sutcliffe and who he is. The other is the crimes and the details. So often, the victims and the families of the victims are represented in a simplistic way. So, it really felt important to redress the balance.”Jones as DCS Hoban, who led the investigation into the Ripper murders before DCS George Oldfield took over
