Murder Maps is a television show that first aired in 2015. It focuses on some of the most infamous murder cases that have taken place in London between the late Victorian era through the 1940s. The show takes viewers through these brutal murders, and the efforts of the investigators who tried to solve them.

The show features Nicholas Day, who is a well-known actor and historian, as the narrator of the story. He uses his acting skills to make the show more engaging and interesting as he guides viewers through the details of each murder case. Day provides necessary background information about each case, making the viewer feel like they are a part of the investigation.

Apart from Day, the show features two other experts in the field: Alan Moss and Donald Rumbelow. Moss is a former detective who uses his past experience to analyze the evidence that was collected at the time of each murder. He helps viewers understand how the investigation was carried out and why certain pieces of evidence were crucial in solving the case. Rumbelow is a historian and author who adds an additional layer of detailed information. His insights not only give viewers a better picture of the historical context in which the murders took place, but also sheds light on some of the historical characters who were involved in these cases.

Each episode of the show focuses on a single murder case, exploring the backstory of the victims and suspects, and the many twists and turns that came with the investigation. From Jack the Ripper to Dr. Crippen, the show covers all the major cases that have been in the public domain for over a century. It also includes lesser-known cases that are just as disturbing, such as the murder of Mary Jane Kelly, who was one of Jack the Ripper
