Michael Caine plays Detective Abbeline in this 1988 Lorimar Production of Jack the Ripper. Fantastic music and wonderful acting but this is total fiction - if you want to know more about Jack the Ripper see my films on that subject on the alanheath channel.

My channel is one of the most prolific from Poland. With almost one film per day, one may be forgiven for thinking I do nothing else but I do have a day job as well. I have produced around 1,600 original films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occasional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.

Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!

Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

@Marillionboy He won an Emmy award for his performance, respect.

@frafroggy I agree largely with what the above commentator says on historical fact and mystery solved because from a historical point of view it is atrocious.  However I see nothing wrong with the acting and the musical score is stupendous. It is a pity that they could not have done something more historically accurate given the effort made in other areas although showing Jack the Ripper to be some working class east end maniac is a lot less glamourous than someone associated with royalty.

@Marillionboy you've got to be kidding me ... How is this bad acting ? This was the best version (even though it's a simple tv film). I'm a film-buff and I do think this was pretty good ! 7,5/10 ;)

@swastikausa i agree besides evidence was found that it wasn't hima lone anyway. he was employed.

and for this.... i am confused yet very curious about the whole situation. i find teh hole thing so fasinating, and i thank god every day i am not a prostitute! lol

[Marillionboy]

God this is even more awful now than it was in 1988. Atrocious acting, scripting and direction, historical fact treated gingerly to say the least, and a pompous voiceover trying to tell us that this was a mystery solved. And that's without mentioning how Wickes actually pinched dialogue from previous series he'd directed, the Godawful American mini-series requirement of a fairy tale love element and the most glamorous and fey East End Victorian prostitutes imaginable.
