The biggest manhunt in British history.
«Длинная тень» — семисерийный британский телесериал в жанре криминальной драмы. В сериале подробно рассказывается о долгой охоте на серийного убийцу, которого обычно называют Йоркширским Потрошителем. Для написания сериала сценарист Джордж Кей частично использовал книгу Майкла Билтона 2003 года «Wicked Beyond Belief» в сочетании с материалами дела, стенограммами допросов и полицейскими отчетами. В период с 1975 по 1980 год маньяк терроризировал Йоркшир, устраивая убийства, в результате которых погибли 13 женщин, а еще семерым повезло остаться в живых после того, как им удалось пережить его жестокие нападения. Его ужасные преступления оставили глубокий шрам в душе нации и стали темой многочисленных фильмов и документальных лент, но горе и боль, которые продолжают испытывать семьи его жертв, часто пытаются замалчивать.
