Hull Ripper Lecture Thank you to everyone who turned up to the Jack the Ripper- The Hull Connection last night at Hull’s Central Library. The night went well and the Reference library, where the lecture was held, was bustling with people wanting to know more about Hull’s links to the case. The feedback from the lecture was fantastic, and it was nice to meet some old faces, and some new. Jack in Hull It’s always nice to hear that people are taking an interest in Jack the Ripper, more so when it’s the younger generation, and a number of schools in Hull are taking the Ripper on, and trying to solve the case! With fresh eyes, and new blood looking at an age old mystery, who knows what will be discovered. Jack on the box Over the past month a number of documentary makers have been in touch, each with their own take on the Ripper and the Autumn of Terror. This means that 2011 will be a bumper year for new, fresh, and exciting Ripper documentaries. I have also had the pleasure of speaking with a gentleman who is working on a movie script that will see Jack the Ripper hitting the big screens, should the movie get the green light, and of course, funding!! Jack to the Future With the year end quickly catching up on us, where do we see the case and it’s study going over the next 12 months? I have already heard whispers from several authors that new books are being planned, and it was even stated that Paul Begg could have a new fresh Ripper book on the way, looking at an aspect of the case that researchers and certainly authors have never published a book on! What it is will remain secret as Paul isn’t spilling the beans. |
