'Ripper Street' is set to return next month on Amazon Prime after being axed from the BBC earlier this year.
The Victorian crime drama is to air its third series exclusively on Amazon Prime starting this November before being broadcast on BBC One and BBC America in 2015 after fans petitioned for its return.
Characters including Detective Inspector Reid (Matthew Macfadyen), Detective Inspector Drake (Jerome Flynn), Captain Homer Jackson (Adam Rothenberg) and Long Susan (MyAnna Buring) are all set to return.
Matthew said: "[I'm] delighted and excited to be back for a third series of Ripper. Thank you to Amazon, thank you to our fans who wanted more, and thank you to our wonderful writers and producers for giving us the most thoroughly brilliant, gripping and heart-rending opening episodes."
The upcoming third series will be released from 9pm every Friday starting on November 14 and is available to all Amazon Prime Instant Video members, who will also be able to enjoy a special extended "Amazon cut" of all eight episodes which include exclusive scenes which won't be seen on the BBC.
The action kicks off with a double bill and the series - which follows the lives of men and women living in crime-ridden 19th Century Whitechapel in east London - will come to a close with an explosive finale on Boxing Day.
Jerome added of the upcoming drama: "It is brilliant to be coming back ... There are many great stories and twists and turns for all the characters. The Drake we meet in episode one has certainly been on a journey since viewers last saw him."

Chloe Sims says her relationship with Ferne McCann is "going nowhere".
The glamorous television personality has admitted that she is no longer on speaking terms with her 'The Only Way Is Essex' co-star, who is currently dating her brother Charlie Sims.
Speaking about her relationship with Ferne on ITV's 'This Morning' earlier today (03.10.91), Chloe vented: "We are nowhere. We are way past nowhere now.
"I'm done. I've got nothing else to say about her. This series I just want to concentrate on happy stuff and Charlie is happy and I want to let them get on with it and not be provoked by Ferne."
Charlie - who had joined his sister on the 'This Morning' sofa - confirmed that his relationship was "definitely on" before adding that he was "sick and tired of playing happy families" and wants to concentrate on the new series instead of focusing on the drama between his girlfriend and sibling.
He said: "Do you know what? I'm just sick and tired of playing happy families all the time, I don't really want to keep going down the same road.
"I always find when you try and fix things together you always force it and it never really works, and we've done it so many times that sometimes you've just got to give things a little bit of time."

Emma Thompson has urged the public to follow Russell Brand's 'don't vote' campaign.
The 'Effie Gray' actress has spoken out in favour of the comedian's controversial campaign - which encouraged people to rethink their political stance by not voting in elections - and has even likened modern society to the totalitarian state featured in George Orwell's novel, '1984'.
In an interview with The Times newspaper, Emma said: "I am encouraged by people like Russell Brand saying, 'Don't vote'. I've now got to the point where I listen to reports about what's happening on the FTSE or the Dow Jones [stock exchange] and I think I'm in an Orwell [novel]."
The 55-year-old actress - who visited the Arctic with the environmental organisation Greenpeace earlier this year - also advised people to do "whatever it takes" to prevent further damage to the environment.
She told the newspaper: "I'm afraid I have just got to the stage where I can't stand it any more, what is being done in this world. I can't stand it, I can't bear the fact that they are going to drill for oil. They're not drilling for f***ing oil in the Arctic! The Arctic belongs to us, all of us, they can't be allowed to do that, so whatever it takes ... non-violent direct action, civil disobedience, you have to do it!"

Keira Knightley doesn't "condemn" cosmetic surgery.
The 'Atonement' star may think using Botox or fillers is not good for actresses because it restricts their facial movements, but she would never "condemn" anyone for having the wrinkle-smoothing treatments if it made them happier.
Talking to the Daily Mail newspaper, Keira said: "It is a drawback, not being able to move your face. But I don't think I would ever condemn any woman for doing something that made her feel better about herself.
"If she's suddenly feeling like she's the most disgusting thing in the world, and that's what she wants to do and that makes her happier then I think she should be free to do what makes her feel better in her own body, her own skin and own mind."
When the 29-year-old actress was asked if she would ever consider going under the knife, she replied: "Surgery for myself? I hope I don't. I don't plan to. but who knows?"
Keira - who stars in the new film, 'The Imitation Game' opposite Benedict Cumberbatch - explained how she had fought to keep her character Joan Clarke as unglamorous as possible because she didn't want her to be defined by her appearance.
She added: "I just wanted her not to feel like the 'girl' in the movie, and when she comes along, suddenly everyone says, 'Ah pretty!'"

Bethenny Frankel has been warned by a judge to stop wearing her daughter's clothes.
The 43-year-old reality star was criticised by a Manhattan matrimonial judge yesterday (02.10.14) for showing "poor judgement" by posting a photograph online of herself in July wearing four-year-old Bryn's Hello Kitty pyjamas and Justice Ellen Gesmer told her the decision was "ridiculous".
The judge said: "No more pyjamas!"
When Bethenny's lawyer, Allan Mayefsky, insisted the posting was just a joke, the judge replied: "It's not a joke. Her child is not a joke."
The judge - who was presiding over a hearing between Bethenny and ex-husband Jason Hoppy relating to financial information - reminded the 'Real Housewives' star the image will stay on the Internet forever and said even her own concerned friends had called her about the picture.
A trial to divide the TV star's estimated $55 million fortune is expected to take place during the coming months.
The former couple spent 16 months locked in a bitter battle over Bryn, but finally agreed to share parental duties in June.
The pair filed for divorce in December 2012 but have since been arguing over the money made during their two-year marriage after Bethenny set up her company Skinnygirl.

Charlie Sheen has branded a dental technician who accused him of making threats with a knife a "desperate troll".
The unnamed technician - who has since been dismissed from her job - told police the 'Anger Management' star had threatened his dentist while high on rock cocaine but the 49-year-old actor insists her allegations are false.
Sending a message via website TMZ, Charlie said: "Hey cholesterol pants: Maybe you should have taken the crack you so brazenly and ignorantly accused me of being on, and sold it!
"Now that you're a jobless washout and a traitor, you're gonna need the extra dough ... lick those food stamps, you desperate troll. C."
According to the website, Charlie's dentist has denied the claims of the technician, and fired her from his practice after she spoke out about his famous patient, violating privacy regulations.
A spokesperson for the former 'Two and a Half Men' star - who had sought treatment for an abscess - previously insisted any altercation was caused due to the actor experiencing a "bad reaction" to nitrous oxide.
His representative Jeff Ballard said: "Charlie went to the dentist and had a bad reaction to the nitrous oxide which the dentist administered to him. There was no knife involved and there were no illegal drugs involved as well."
The technician had claimed Charlie went "insane" and was flailing his arms when she placed a mask over his face to administer nitrous oxide, so she left the room and his bodyguard entered.
Following a "lot of commotion", Charlie's dentist - who had also been in the room along with an oral surgeon - left the room and allegedly told the technician his famous patient had gone after him with a knife, but he was unhurt.
The technician also reported to officers that Charlie's bodyguard had told the dentist the 49-year-old star was "high on rock cocaine" at the time of the altercation.

Kendra Wilkinson Baskett says her husband is having "a lot of therapy".
The 'Kendra On Top' star was left devastated when a transsexual woman claimed to have had an affair with Hank Baskett - the father of her children Hank Jr., four, and four-month-old Alijah - earlier this summer and she admits their marriage was in trouble long before the allegations were made.
Asked when their relationship started to become rocky, she said: "He was going through a lot of stuff that nobody knows about and he was trying to talk to me about it and I would not deal with it," she said, looking back on when their relationship started to become rocky.
"He was very lost. Very, very lost and I wish I would have had it in my heart to slow down a little bit and listen... right now, he's in a lot of therapy... and figuring out a way to explain everything. I don't get it."
While Hank is insistent the infidelity claims are false, Kendra admits "some of it is true" and she is still unsure about the future of their relationship.
She added: "In my eyes, life is too short and this man who I loved for six years - I believe he deserves... a second chance, if he did make a mistake.
"And right now I'm working that out. I'm working on what happened and if this was a mistake, which I believe, I'm starting to believe it was.
"If I believe that Hank had an affair on me, the divorce would have gone through already. I'm holding on to any hope I have."
And the 29-year-old beauty went on to praise the sportsman as a "perfect guy".
She told 'Access Hollywood': "At the end of the day, he comes from an amazing place and amazing background. He's a perfect guy and he's never done me wrong, he's not like some douchebag. He's not a douchebag.
"He's never treated me wrong, so if he was, I wouldn't be with him right now.
"He is an amazing father."

Ansel Elgort has taken steps to ensure he isn't targetted by celebrity hackers.
A group of female stars - including Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Kim Kardashian West - were left horrified when private images were taken from their iCloud accounts and posted online, and the subsequent scandal has prompted the 'Divergent' actor to take measures to stay extra safe.

In his new movie 'Men, Women & Children', the 20-year-old star plays an online gaming obsessive and admits the continual playing of 'World of Warcraft' which he did while preparing for the role took him to a "dark place".
He told Buzzfeed News: "It takes you to a f***ing dark place.
"Like, we were at my family's house during Thanksgiving, and just to really feel it out -- and my parents were kind of like, 'What the f**k?' -- I was playing 'World of Warcraft' throughout Thanksgiving weekend, all day, every day.
"At the table, eating, I'd be like, ''Gotta play 'Warcraft', gotta play 'Warcraft'. This sucks. I want to just take this food upstairs and play by myself.' "
The 'Fault in Our Stars' actor is hoping to continue having movie success for a long time and is determined his final work will be his best.
He admitted: "I've joked with myself that I want a post-mortem Academy Award nomination. The last movie I do better be f***ing good."

Nick Jonas wants people to "have sex to" his new music.
The former Jonas Brothers singer is working on a solo album - which is due to be released in November - and says each track has a specific "purpose".
He explained to the new issue of Flaunt magazine: "I really try to be aware of the purpose of each song.There are songs on my record that I want people to have sex to, and songs people can listen to when they're p***ed off.
"And I think that's the beautiful thing about music: that in those moments, you hear it and it elevates the scenario."
The 22-year-old singer recently admitted there are three vital traits he looks for in a woman before he starts a relationship with her.
When asked what he looks for in a partner, he said: "Honesty, sense of humour, and good times."
However, he admits he can't stand going on dates with people who spend all of the time on their phone, rather than enjoying the romantic occasion and doesn't even think it is acceptable after a couple have been together for a long time.
He added: "No phones. Put your phone away. That's, like, every date, even years into a relationship. Stop texting. Pay attention to what's going on right now."

Leighton Meester is more focused on her personal life since leaving 'Gossip Girl'.
The 28-year-old actress' priorities have drastically changed since leaving The CW drama in 2012 as she admitted that these days she is less focused on work and more interested in learning to surf and spending time with her new husband, Adam Brody, whom she married in an intimate ceremony in February 2014.
In an interview in the November issue of InStyle magazine, Leighton said: "My values have shifted greatly in terms of what I find important. It's my family, my friends and having a personal life. Those are the things that need nurturing."
The star - who has recently finished starring in the Broadway production of 'Of Mice and Men' - did add that she didn't have any regrets about her career and even joked about the sexy music video for her 2009 single 'Somebody to Love', which featured Robin Thicke.
She explained: "It was fun. It wasn't at all me. I guess you can look back and say everything happens because you learn from it and you're better for it."

Danny Dyer is set to sign a new three-year deal with 'EastEnders'.
The new contract for the 36-year-old actor - who plays Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on the popular BBC One soap - is thought to be worth an estimated £400,000.
Dominic Treadwell-Collins, who produces 'EastEnders', explained to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We're in negotiations with Danny. He and I are very happy. He's lovely - clever, warm and loyal. We've got a bit of a bromance."
Danny, who's also appeared in 'The Football Factory' and 'Adulthood', was named Best Actor at the Inside Soap Awards earlier this week.
