Left for Dead by the Yorkshire Ripper

It's dark. Quiet. There's no one else around. Out of nowhere a mysterious man pushes you to the floor and raises a claw hammer. What do you do? Try to run away? Beg for mercy? Fight back? Told in their own words, these are the heart-wrenching stories of the brave survivors who escaped the Yorkshire Ripper - and, in so doing, helped to put the monster behind bars. Peter Sutcliffe, The Yorkshire Ripper, is one of the most notorious British serial killers of all time. He murdered 13 women and attempted to kill at least 20 more during a 5-year reign of terror. Now, in this compelling documentary we tell his shocking story through the ones that got away - the brave survivors who he attacked but who lived to tell the tale. It was their testimony that helped to put the Ripper behind bars, bringing his murderous rampage to an end. This enthralling documentary is driven by heart-stopping, intimate first-person interviews, as these survivors recount the attacks blow-by-blow, second-by-second. Along the way we interweave Sutcliffe's murderous rise and fall.
