Juan Carlos Medina is a director and writer, known for “Painless”, “The Limehouse Golem” and “A Discovery of Witches”.

We talk about “The Limehouse Golem”, the cast, how he projected Peter Ackroyd’s visionary images on screen and how the illness and untimely death of Alan Rickman, who was originally cast as Inspector Kildare, affected the production and him personally.

Dominik Scherrer ist ein 1967 in Zürich geborener britischer Komponist, der viel für Film, Theater und Fernsehen geschrieben hat. Von ihm stammen die Soundtracks zu “Agatha Christie’s Marple”, “Ripper Street”, “Inspector George Gently”, “Primeval”, “The Missing”, “Requiem” und “The Serpent”.

Wir trafen Dominik Scherrer in seinem Crimson Noise Studio auf der Brick Lane, mitten im Gebiet von Jack the Ripper. Um die Ecke in der Hanbury Street wurde Annie Chapman, das zweite kanonische Opfer des Rippers, ermordet. Die Musik zu “Ripper Street” stammt also quasi “von” der “Ripper Street”.

Elva Trill is an Irish actor and musician. She is known for “Ripper Street”, “Line of Duty” and “Starstruck”. She is one of the vocalists of the band The City and Us.

I met Elva Trill for a pint in The Ten Bells pub in Spitalfields, East London. Some of Jack the Ripper’s victims were said to have drunk here, so it was a fitting location to talk about Elva’s appearance on “Ripper Street”.

We chat about her career, her band The City and Us, her forthcoming projects and about what living in East London is like.
