Katherine Kelly, David Morrissey, Toby Jones and Daniel Mays will star in new ITV drama The Long Shadow
The seven-part series follows the impact of Sutcliffe’s shocking crimes with the title making reference to the fear he cast over the region. Sutcliffe was convicted of murdering 13 women between 1975 and 1980 in Yorkshire.
It features an ensemble cast including Katherine Kelly, David Morrissey, Toby Jones and Daniel Mays. We’ve previously reported, ITV changed the name of the new drama following the response to the proposed title. Writer George Kay said: “We started by calling it, The Yorkshire Ripper, when we announced it.
Richard added: “What I've been less pleased with is that over the last few weeks we've had lots of publicity about it and all the tabloids are using this moniker. Once and for all I'd ask can’t we stop that? Willow Grylls, executive producer for the series, has further echoed the desire not to glamourise Sutcliffe’s crimes. Willow said: “This awful tragedy is one of the biggest crime stories of the last 100 years. It is definitely part of our social history. Yet it generally retold in two ways. One focuses on Peter Sutcliffe and who he is.
