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?
Excellent show and acting. Big mistake canceling ITV in canceling. USA networks should look into this one.
One of the Best TV shows, I am watching it again from the beginning. They should have gone on for more seasons. Excellent cast.
Such a shame, canceling one of the best BBC has offered. Whitechaple deserves to run for many more years. I hope those of us in US get a chance to see season 4.
My wife and I just watched all seasons of the series and are disappointed with how the series ended as it failed to bring the story line to a logical conclusion. Excellent series which should have played out a final season.
Binge watched this in a week! PLEASE make a season 5! I know the last season was 9 years ago, so the characters will be older, but you MUST! It leaves you hanging! Love the quality of British TV, so much better than American TV. Thanks!
Watched the entire series on Britbox and loved every minute. It had the best ensemble of actors. Almost feel guilty about enjoying it so much since it could be quite gruesome, but I loved the edge-of-your-seat suspense. Thank you actors, writers, etc. for quality work!
This show was getting so good. It was getting better and better!! I can’t believe that they would cancel it. I haven’t seen another show quite like this one. The characters were excellent and had depth. Especially loved the relationship with Chandler and Miles. So sad that it’s finished.
They definitely need to pick up Season 5!!
The show is so creative and captivating!
Plus, it needs closure!
I think they should definitely have another season. Once you land on Hulu you pick up a larger audience. Go with it.
White Chapel is one of the very few show worthy of watching
Bring it back! I’ve rewatched the entire series & have really enjoyed it.
They should show all seasons of white chapel
I could NOT be more disappointed! I started watching just recently and was hooked after season 1, episode 1 and binge watched through season 4. What were they thinking when they canceled? Tossers!
