Those behind the 1988 film Buster should look upon The Great Train Robbery: The Robber’s Tale as a way to tell a story properly and without the large amount of buckets of whitewash in which to dip the carcass of post-war police work and the glamorisation of those involved in a crime that shook the very foundations of life in the U.K. already rocked by the scandal surrounding John Profumo and Christine Keeler.

The passage of time has never seemed to erase any interest or mawkish fascination in the case of Lord Lucan and his alleged crime of murder, in fact like Jack the Ripper nearly 90 years before him or Dr. Crippen, the more years pass, the stronger the interest seems to get, human nature becomes overwhelming in the search for the truth; even when that truth will certainly never be found.

The writers of Ripper Street have never been afraid to head down the path afforded the rich history of Whitechapel for its inspiration. Whether it is the world of male prostitution, the salaciousness of Molly Houses, the rights of women, the Irish question or the straight poison that stalked the streets of the East End in 1888, there is not a moment in that dark history of Whitechapel that isn’t worth exploring.

Clive Staples Lewis was man who was driven by love and loss. The writer of many books, papers and poetry, the man who bought to life the world of Narnia, of Aslan and a flickering lamppost that marked the end of the wardrobe and the beginnings of a series of children’s stories that dominated the world of English fantasy literature alongside his Oxford University friend J.R.R. Tolkien.

The way that Ripper Street has incorporated the life of Detective Inspector Reid and his surroundings of Whitechapel, London and given the audience that watch this ever increasing popular programme a lesson in some of the more historical emergences of the time is never anything but gratifying.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
The audience that recently made their way down to the Playhouse Theatre in Liverpool to watch one of the leading lights in the art of ventriloquism may or not have watched a particular programme tucked away on B.B.C. Television during the summer of 2012 on Nina Conti and her relationship with British theatre maverick Ken Campbell and the secondary bond with her mentor’s voice and dolls.

The Day of The Doctor…Thanks to the way the B.B.C. has taken very seriously the notion of the longest running science fiction programme of all time turning 50 years old, it’s been more like several months of snippet here, a smidgen of misinformation there, the release of a rumour, conjecture, assumption and speculation.

History turns on the flash of a camera, of the captured moving moments in time which changes the world forever. It seems nothing now that is significant, noteworthy or even seemingly inconsequential is not captured by a reporter, a journalist or even the feed of any social network, it is all secured for future posterity. History was changed on November 22nd, for America and for the news organisations that came of age on that fateful day in Dallas as President Kennedy was assassinated.
