The Victims Of Jack The Ripper - Their Lives, Deaths And Graves.

A documentary that tells the stories of the five victims of Jack the Ripper - Mary Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Kelly. Their murders - which were included on the Whitechapel Murders file - took place between Friday, August 31st, 1888 and Friday, 9th November, 1888 at various locations around the streets of the Victorian East End of London. Using contemporary photographs and illustrations, as well as footage of the locations as they are today, we tell each of their stories, tracing their lives from their births to their deaths. CONTENTS OF THIS VIDEO 00:00 - Intro 00:09 - The Whitechapel Murders, April 1888 - February, 1891. 00:29 - The Origin of the name "Jack the Ripper". 00:45 - The Canonical Five Victims. 01:17 - The Life and Murder of Mary Nichols. 08:37 -The Life and Murder of Annie Chapman. 15:18 - The Life and Murder of Elizabeth Stride. 20:03 - The Life and Murder of Catherine Eddowes. 27:50 - The Life and Murder of Mary Kelly. 41:07 - The Legacy of the Jack the Ripper crimes. 42:05 - A brief summary of the victims. 42:21 - Conclusion 43:04 - Closing Credits We detail how each one of the victims lives followed a similar tragic pattern as circumstances conspired to send them on a downward spiral that caused them to seek solace in drink. With their lives blighted by poverty and alcoholism, each of the victims eventually gravitated to the East End of London, where they lived transient existences flitting between the district's common lodging houses and rented accommodation. As there was no welfare system to ease the hardships of those who had fallen on hard times, the five women did what it took to survive, be it selling whatever they could acquire on the streets of London, as well as resorting to casual prostitution. Ultimately, this would lead them into the clutches of a man whom history now remembers as "Jack the Ripper" and we examine the horror of their murders whilst visiting the sites through press illustrations and photographs. We also take a close look a their funerals, and describe the public reaction to each funeral, when crowds would line the streets, and men, women, and children would often try to touch the coffins as they passed on the routes the the cemeteries, where the victims of Jack the Ripper were laid to rest. We visit the cemeteries in which they lie, and stand by the memorial plaques to each victims that are now maintained by the individual burial grounds. The film does not sensationalise the murders, but tries to take a measured and sympatric look at the lives of five women whose horrific deaths at the hands of an unknown murderer laid bare the horrific social conditions that prevailed in the Victorian East End of London.
