It sounds like the Whitechapel TV show won’t be back for a fifth season. Lead actor Rupert Penry-Jones, who plays DI Joseph Chandler, broke the news via his Twitter account: “Sorry to be the bearer of bad news everyone but ITV don’t want any more Whitechapel. That’s all folks x.”
A detective drama, Whitechapel airs on BBC America here in the states but the cable channel has yet to announce when or if they will air the fourth season of six episodes. That batch finished airing in the UK on October 9th.
What do you think? Have you watched the Whitechapel TV series? Should BBC America run the final season?
Absolutely fuming why would you cancel a show like this with so much to offer. Whoever took the decision to cancel this series hang your heads in shame!!!!
Very very annoyed.!!!!
Why would you stop a series like this.
ITV hang your bloody heads in shame!!!!!
bullux, or whatever that is no way to end a show
I an just viewing the series and i am hooked guttered i didn’t get to see how the story pans out pity they didn’t continue it onward
Well I think there should be another Season as the ending proceed as more exciting series and the ending did not show true scenario.
Am so disappointed to know that whitechapel has been cancelled, what a brilliant show and cast , r the BBC thick ??
Typical BBC we have to put up with all the rubbish, all the bias news from the over paid presenters, the doom and gloom of what might happen instead of sticking to the facts then along comes an entertaining series like Whitechapel and because of costs the show is axed.It is about time the licence payer got value for money
I totally agree. I’ve just finished watching all 4 seasons and was excited about the 5th season. Can’t believe it’s been cancelled. We are stuck with the rubbish bbc normally put on and great shows like this cancelled. What are our licence fees for???
I just finished the entire 4 seasons and was hoping for a 5th season to look forward to. But sadly, they cancelled. There was so much more to tell, in added seasons. The acting was very good, and the storylines interesting/varied enough to keep a person coming back for more. Another streaming service needs to pick it up.
Yes, we love the show
Whitechapel was axed right in the middle of the series! There are so many ways this series could take.
Too bad, another British crime drama that this US viewer would have loved to watch more. Prefer British crime drama’s to American tv.
Noooooo, I love this show and it was just starting to get really good in Season 4. Why would the network cancel it?. Not happy here in Canada.
i love this show! it could have gone on for YEARS
