Jericho is a British period drama television series created and written by Steve Thompson; it was directed by Paul Whittington.[1] The eight-part series premiered on ITV between 7 January and 25 February 2016. The series re-imagines the building of the Ribblehead Viaduct (renamed the Culverdale Viaduct) as a Western-inspired story.[2] It is set in the fictional town of Jericho, a shanty town in the Yorkshire Dales of England, which springs up around the construction of a railway viaduct in the 1870s.[3]
In April 2016 ITV confirmed that a second series of the show was not going to be commissioned.[4] The series was available for streaming video in the USA on Acorn TV, beginning 11 July 2016.[5]
