To coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Jack The Ripper killings, a respected team of world-renowned forensic scientists, criminologists and Ripper-ologists (including forensic pathologist Dr. William Eckert, the Curator of Scotland Yard`s Black Museum, William Waddell, FBI Special Agents Roy Hazelwood and John Douglas, Queen`s Counsel Ann Mallalieu, Donald Rumbelow and Martin Fido) were gathered together for a live, news-making television event with one purpose: to uncover The Secret Identity of Jack The Ripper.

Presented by Peter Ustinov, this documentary employs state-of-the-art methods of criminal analysis developed by the F.B.I., constructs vivid re-enactments of the crimes, and presents profiles of each of the prime suspects as the experts attempt to positively identify Jack the Ripper.
