This Is Personal: The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper (2000) watch online

This Is Personal: The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper is a British television crime drama miniseries, first shown on ITV from 26 January to 2 February 2000. The series is a dramatisation of the real-life investigation into the notorious Yorkshire Ripper murders of the late 1970s, showing the effect that it had on the health and career of Assistant Chief Constable George Oldfield (Alun Armstrong) who led the enquiry. The series also starred Richard Ridings and James Laurenson as DSI Dick Holland and Chief Constable Ronald Gregory, respectively. Although broadcast over two weeks, two episodes were shown consecutively each week.

The series was directed by David Richards and written by Neil McKay. Production was overseen by then-ITV executive producer Jeff Pope, who commissioned it as the first feature in a trilogy of series about the most notorious murder cases of the past century, with the later series being See No Evil: The Moors Murders and the award-winning Appropriate Adult. The series was nominated for the BAFTA TV Award for Best Drama Serial at the 2001 awards. The series was released on DVD on 7 January 2013, individually and as part of a "British Serial Killers" box set, which also includes the ITV-produced series Harold Shipman: Doctor Death, A Is for Acid and The Brides in the Bath.
