Anyone else excitied about Damien Moloney being in Ripper Street?

[TheSmallPumpkin]

Starting tonight.

I liked Ripper Street before but with Damo in it I'm hoping to enjoy it even more. I do miss Hal.

I missed Reid's wife leaving. I thought they walked out of the orphangae holding hands when they found that girl wasnt their daughter.

How did you all know this was on? I haven't seen one advert for it And what with Hal being in it, I am doubly displeased! Is it repeated at any point or do I have to brave the iPlayer?

I haven't see one trailer Can't find any repeats so I'll have to crank up the iPlayer, at least we have that option so all's not lost. Thanks for the heads-up, Pumpkin, it would have completely passed me by if not for this thread.

Oh sorry, I've confused you and myself, I was talkin g about the American not Bennett , I'm rubbish with names!! Yes I think you're right about him rescuing her, but I think they did get together last series. Sorry!

Yes I was at the elephant man too.

muffin there have been quite a few adverts for it which is how I knew also follow DM in twitter don't panic as he wasn't in the first programme

LOVE Ripper St!

The prostitute that Bennet rescued from the snuff film was Rose, he was never married to her, he proposed to her and was turned down and then released the little canaries (that broke my heart a little). His wife is the prostitute he was met in the last episode but I have a feeling that Rose will make a re-appearance.

I too had some issues with hearing what Jedediah was saying, he has a wonderfully sleazy evil look about him though.

No idea who this Damian Moloney person is that everyone's going potty for, I googled him and he may actually be short than a garden gnome. I'll stick with the trio of tall boys thanks!

I don't think the BBC have advertised it very well, I've only seen one ad in the last three weeks.

I assumed you'd seen an ad so that's how you knew :p I don't have Twitter but I watch a lot of BBC 1-4 so not sure how I missed them, but then I have been very preoccupied with Supernatural/Spartacus/Bates Motel catch ups lately so maybe that's a clue

I'm only 5'1'' so I'll take him off your hands, thanks very much

He's 5'10" so just about tall enough for me. I think next to MM he may look tiny though.

5'10" in his dreams!

I know actors, their official height is never their actual height. I'd say he's 5' 7" on a tall day. Perfectly suited for muffin!

Perfectly suited for muffin!

I certainly think so Although my RL DP is 6 foot

I thought the episode where the little girl turned out to be not their daughter was the last episode and that there has been a passing of some time (and events) between the series.

Ps His height has never been the thing I most notice about him but then I'm only 5 foot 2

Right, tonights the night. I hope I'm not disappointed.

Yes I could hear better this week although that could be because DH wasn't crashing around the room as normal. I like the idea that the programme makers have been on MN and listened to our constructive criticism.

The actor who player Mr Merrick was very good I thought. Very sad though.

And not enough of DC Flint.

Or Flight even

never seen this before til this series, came highly recommended in the guardian.
so therefore i liked it

no, i Did, it is really good isnt it.

Yes it's great Waikikamookau

I don't recall seeing it Schmaltzing.

I loved him as Hal, his voice is amazing, and his shirtless scenes were particularly well acted and gripping.

I have never watched Ripper Street, but am now considering it! I watch so many series though that I'm not sure I can find time for another!

@ Riffy he didn't have a lot of the script last night but it appears that he is keeping his Irish accent - maybe softened a bit.

Ripper Street is good so having him in it is just a bonus!

Oh thought we were going to build that a bit with Evelyn but looks like a back story will be revealed...
