BUCK’S ROW, WHITECHAPEL - NIGHT We open on a narrow, deserted street. Gas lamps dance shadows here and there. Small cottages line one side of the street, a Victorian schoolhouse dominating the other. SCREEN TITLE: BUCK’S ROW, WHITECHAPEL, LONDON, 1888 A drunken prostitute staggers into view. Meet MARY ANN NICHOLS, 43. Heavily overweight and about to enter the history books for all the wrong reasons. Dressed in typical working girl garb, she lurches along the cobbles, slaughtering the ditty of the day. NICHOLS: (sings) I’m a young girl... and have just come over. Over from the country where they do things -- She attempts to dance. Trips. Ends up face down in a puddle. Nichols claws the cobbles with two shaky hands and pulls herself up. Catching her reflection, she sighs mournfully. Desperate features stare back from the water. NICHOLS: Look at you, poor old cow. She grabs onto the brickwork of the school.
