Ripper Street S3: BBC will begin airing in the UK on 31 July

Series 3 of Ripper Street, which was originally axed by BBC and revived by its fans and Amazon, will finally begin airing in the UK on Friday 31, July at 9 pm according to Radio Times.

Also, to make it even more absurd that BBC cancelled Ripper Street, BBC Worldwide announced that it posted record returns for BBC because of shows like Ripper Street!

Premium content investment delivered a rich mix of titles, including drama - which accounted for almost half of total investment in the year. Top-selling titles were Doctor Who, Top Gear, Orphan Black, Life Story, The Musketeers, Atlantis, Call the Midwife, Ripper Street, Sherlock and The Honourable Woman.
