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?
Loved the show. Would have loved a final 5 season Still not too late. Acting was great and stories kept me glued to my computer.
This was really entertaining and enjoyable – very disappointing that it has been cancelled. It was extremely well made too and thought the acting was spot on.
I’m also really disappointed – this was so entertaining. Enjoyed it very much.
I’m so disappointed that there won’t be a new season of Whitechapel! This show had great writing, acting, and filming. A darn shame that it’s not been renewed.
Very disappointing… wish I would of know before I just watched all 4 seasons.. they could of at least wrapped it up.. I hate when shows end without any closure, it makes you not want to invest your time to even watch any series.
Very disappointing, great show but I guess that means you cut the show and go on with the crap!Thanks BBC
Very disappointed. I have never figured out why good programs are termínated. This program should continue because there are questions to be answered. Really hope you reconsider.
Oh, please bring Whitechapel back! It’s a terrific show and love the cast!
love the show!!!!!!- very disappointed to hear that it has been canceled-
Epically bad decision. Great series! So unlike American drama that likes to spoon feed the viewer. This show needs to continue.
One of the best filmed suspense shows. Reminds of Hitchcock letting your imagination fill in the blanks. Seems like the better PBS shows get cancelled, and there have been some good ones. Hope someone continues with the director and film crew
Of course, an intelligent show gets cancelled. That’s always the case. People are stupid so they don’t want to watch anything that makes them think. Yet another great show, trashed because of stupidity.
WHAT! The news of the show being cancelled is a complete disappointment. The Whitechapel seasons NEED to continue. ITV needs to get their head out of their butts and realize they have a great show. The family is hooked! ITV had lost their mind. Get ready for some serious regret fellas. I’d be firing the genius who voted to cancel.
Whitechapel was GREAT! Why cancel a good thing? I’m so disappointed, It definitely should be brought back!
I really loved it, completely hooked, it made you think. Whoever decided to cancel made a huge mistake.
