Plots(1)
The third series of this riveting crime drama opens with a cataclysmic event which reverberates throughout the series. Fifty-five souls are lost to a terrible locomotive disaster with the wreckage landing right in the lap of ‘H’ Division - on Leman Street itself. From the twisted debris of the crash emerge clues that uncover long hidden deceits. These crimes threaten not only to destroy Reid’s iron grip on ‘H’ Division, but to unravel his fragile psyche too. The personal damage to Reid is profound and there is no limit to what he will do to avenge his own, deep-seated grief. (BBC)

Some series get worse with each new season. Ripper Street, on the other hand, gets more and more entertaining. I've already praised the excellent theme and script in my previous reviews, which still holds true, but I forgot to mention the excellent soundtrack. Fortunately, the third season keeps going along the same lines as the second one. It continues to develop a strong story, unlike the slightly disjointed first season which I consider the weakest one of those I’ve seen so far, but still worth no less than five stars. The only disappointment of Season 3 was the somewhat ostentatious end of Mr. Best, which made me think of Platoon.
