"...murders being committed
in our midst."
"Police inadequate."
"We intend offering
a substantial reward...
to anyone, citizen or otherwise...
"who shall give information
bringing the murderer...
or murderers to justice."
Hmm.
Eh! Blimey! It's been rainin'.
Look at all them puddles.
You mustn't be frightened by 'em.
Ain't it a shame
to break up the party?
How about a song, Katie?
Sing that "Ria all over again. Ready?
Well done, Katie!
Look out for Jack the Ripper.
Don't let 'im get you, dearie.
I'll be all right.
There are plenty of policemen about.
- Have you got far to go?
- Only 'round the next corner.
Very well. Good night.
Good night.
Good night, Katie.
Good night, all.
Hello. Who are you?
What do you want?
It was the Ripper all right.
He done her the same way as the others.
They only just found her.
Isn't it awful, what's happenin'.
It's hardly more than a week
since the last.
I saw 'im!
I saw the Ripper.
He ran down the other alley.
- It must be him.
- Did you see his face?
No. Not in the dark.
Like a shadow he was.
She's the fourth
he's done 'round here.
Right in the streets...
under your very noses.
Whoa.
Special edition!
Extra! Special edition!
Lord love me! They've seen him!
They seen the Ripper.
Murder in White chapel! Murder!
The Ripper's been seen!
Read about it! Read all about it!
They've seen the Ripper!
Murder in White chapel!
Read all about it!
Murder in White chapel!
Paper! Ripper sensation!
Jack the Ripper still at large!
Read all about it!
Murder in White chapel!
Jack the Ripper still at large!
- Boy! Paper.

- Read all about it!
- Aye, boy! Paper.
Murder in White chapel!
Murder in White chapel!

- Here, boy!
- Murder in Whitecha... Thank you, governor.
Jack the Ripper still at large!
Read all about it!
Paper, sir?
Jack the Ripper still at large!
Read all about it!
Amazing. Another murder in the same
district committed in the same way.
Throat cut from behind.
Extraordinary.
- You have rooms to let?
- Hmm?
I saw your advertisement, and the estate
agents gave me this order to view.
Well, you better come in.
We don't really make a habit
of letting rooms, you know.
Itjust so happens, at the moment,
we might be able to accommodate someone.
I'll call my wife.
- Ellen.
- Yes, darling?
This gentleman has come
about the, uh, advertisement.
- Oh. How do you do?
- How do you do?
The rooms are upstairs, Mr., uh...
My name is Slade.
Slade? How odd.
We have a Slade Walk
at the corner of the square here.
Now, if you'll come this way.
Here we are.
My Aunt Sophie occupied this part
I'm sure you'll be
very comfortable here.
- This is the bedroom.
- These are the only rooms you have?
I'm afraid so.
- There are the attics of course.
- Attics?
Mi-Might I see them?
Why, they're not very well furnished,
but if you wish.
Those are old-time actresses.
Quaint, aren't they?
My aunt's maid used these attics.
This one is quite empty.
This one was used as a kitchen.
It's excellent.
This is excellent...
exactly what I need.
You see, I'm a pathologist,
a sort of medical scientist.
I wanted to find a place where I could study
and do a little experimental work.
I'd take the other rooms as well...
live in them and work up here.
- Would that be all right?
- Of course.
This would be particularly useful...
because, occasionally,
Would there be any objection
to my moving in tonight?
I don't even want to go out again.
