Simply cannot believe that the BBC are cancelling this brilliant series-tis the best drama on TV! Soo disappointed :(

Oh no really? Hmm I love this. It's hardly been high profile though so I'm not hugely surprised. I usually watch it on iplayer while I'm preparing veg in the kitchen!

sonlypuppyfat · 09/12/2013 07:59

Typical its my favourite show.

Seaoftroubles · 09/12/2013 10:09

Yes,anyone who loves Ripper St please sign! Also make sure you watch the show at 9 pm tonight to increase audience stats..it really is a fab drama, dark,gritty and atmospheric.

Signed the petition. Just because the mindless drones prefer to watch meritless telly doesn't mean they should penalise the rest of us. Anyway if it isn't getting audience share because it clashes with the shite, move it instead!

Love it. This is such a shame.

Signed the petition yesterday.Feel BBC should have
more faith in their wonderful product.
Also feel some bigwig at the Beeb must have
known this would probably happen if they
placed it anywhere near I 'm
a z-grade celebrity bollocks. So why didn't they
wait a couple of extra months before putting it
back on? And then return it to Sunday night ?
This smacks of a stitch-up to me

As well as the petition try tweeting @BBCOne or emailing them at [email protected]

squoosh · 11/12/2013 00:59

Rumours on Twitter that all may not be lost!

Seaoftroubles · 11/12/2013 17:37

Have both tweeted and emailed the Beeb squoosh..ooh rumours you say? Tell us more!

I love this. I have had a soft spot for Jerome Flynn since his Paddy garvey days (showing my age now)

RawCoconutMacaroon · 12/12/2013 13:42

Sqoosh, that's great news, thanks for linking.

Cherrypie32 · 13/12/2013 09:22

Moving it to Monday night was the killer for us. It was perfect Sunday night viewing last series, if a bit gruesome at times.Monday night is not primetime Drama slot.

Seaoftroubles · 13/12/2013 19:07

Ripper St currently leading the Radio Times 'Best T.V show of 2013' ..please vote for them if you haven't already!

I love it. Intelligent and great acting and characterisation. It's one of the few programmes DP and me can sit and have a conversation about.

Plus I am slightly in love with Matthew Macfadyn.

catsmother · 16/12/2013 19:30

Oooh, last one - ever ?? - tonight.

Will have to wait until the next Game of Thrones for my Jerome Flynn fix.

Really hope "they" have a change of heart about this. There's really nothing similar, and is such a good drama .... love the realistic historical detail, warts and all.

squoosh · 16/12/2013 19:59

It's Monday night but I think a couple of vodkas and tonics whilst watching the last Ripper Street are in order. I really hope the Lovefilm thing works out, it's bound to happen sooner or later with a UK programme so why not this one!

Seaoftroubles · 16/12/2013 22:21

OMG unbelievable heart stopping drama from Ripper Street..this cannot be the end,the Beeb must reconsider!

squoosh · 16/12/2013 22:31

That was just wonderful, an hour of TV perfection, Jerome Flynn should win awards for that performance.

No way is Ripper Street dead.

Seaoftroubles · 16/12/2013 22:47

Was on the edge of my seat throughout,Jerome Flynn was awesome but the entire cast were fantastic..superb performances and characterisation, totally riveting!

OP posts:
squoosh · 16/12/2013 23:19

Yes, entire cast is just so strong. Love the actress who plays Long Susan.

foofooyeah · 17/12/2013 00:55

Just watched the last two episodes back to back. Quite exhausted! Fabulous. Brilliant writing.

Seaoftroubles · 17/12/2013 08:45

Massive outpouring of praise for such an incredible series on Twitter ...surely this can't be the end-Ripper St still has so much more to give!
