Ahead of their 2013 debuts, three new series coming to BBC America have locked down premiere dates -- starting with the network's latest co-production.

Ripper Street, the 1800s police drama starring Matthew Macfadyen, opens on Saturday, Jan. 19 at 9 p.m. The network's latest co-production's eight-episode run follows London's H Division as they navigate grisly crimes in the wake of Jack the Ripper's tear through the city. The network co-produced the series for BBC with Tiger Aspect Productions and Lookout Point.


Former Doctor Who star David Tennant makes his return to BBC America on Wednesday, Feb. 6, with espionage miniseries Spies of Warsaw. Part of the network's "Dramaville" block, Warsaw also stars Made in Jersey actress Janet Montgomery and comes to the network from Fresh Pictures. It was co-produced by Apple Film Production for BBC Four and TVP in association with ARTE France and BBC Worldwide. Spies of Warsaw concludes the following Wednesday on Feb. 13.
