Does it mean that he will be Jack?

I read that it will be set post-Jack the Ripper murders, so I don't think there will be a Jack in this series.

Sounds like an interesting project, indeed.

Thank you. It sounds very interesting.

Yum. Thanks for that heads up! I wonder if PBS in the States wll air it for us next year, or if it will be a DVD-thing only for us.

Whenever you look up, there I shall be -- and whenever I look up there will be you.

Perhaps if it has good ratings PBS will run it in 2013.

Hopefully it is a hit so copies of it will turn up on the Net somewhere ;)
