Queen Victoria

The best and most sinister adaptation of this theory in opinion is the movie starring Michael Caine (1988). I cant say that I believe that Sir William Gull was Jack the Ripper for one moment, but it is a lovely theory. One thing I will say though is that film makers do return to this theory again and again, maybe its the fascination of Queen Victorie being involved. I must say though a pure fantasist could ever imagine a closed doors meeting between Gull and Queen Victoria in a secret room at Buckinghma Palace. Imagine that conversation the monarch telling her physician that things needed taking care off ! No I would love this theory to be true but its only fascination is with writers and producers who want to make a few pounds.

Seems pretty cool brah.

I agree with you. The Royal conspiracy is certainly one which captures the imagination, rather much so than a filthy slumdog such as the suspect Kosminski for example. I think what makes many of the theories like this one the edge over others is because Jack the Ripper is glamerous in terms of much sought popular culture. Having Jack the Ripper converse with the Queen is certainly something worthy of a couple of oscars. XD

the only thing that i could say that could be of interest about said movies though is the only reason why they keep bringing up the fact with queen Victoria is possibly the fact that she was a a royal Freemason supporter(and even to this day as i have mentioned before is that the free masons are still suspects in the ripper case as well as many others so if the press at that time found out about the queen being a supporter they could of used it to further the story of the ripper and make a load of money off of it like any other scandalous crap the papers posted on the royal family, with out even knowing if she was really involved??
but getting back to the present here that the reason why Hollywood and such keeps re using said theory is because it undoubtedly keeps bringing in money.
