Can't Tie His Tie

Can't Tie His Tie: The film opens with Inspector Hansen agonising over how to properly tie his cravat for dinner with Sir Sharles at Sir Charles' Smoky Gentlemen's Club, and complaining that there are over a dozen different ways to tie a cravat; to the bewilderment of his assistant Sergeant Bell. Later, when Hansen confronts Prince Albert during a pheasant shoot, Albert looks at Hansen's cravat and tells him that a reverse Clarendon is really only appropriate in town and unties it before retying it in an ascot, which he says is much more appropriate for the country.

Been There, Shaped History: Florry Lewis is responsible for Jack the Ripper not mutilating the body of Liz Stride after he murdered (and, by extension, the second murder of the 'double event') when she witnesses the attack and screams "FIRE!", bringing others running and forcing the Ripper to flee.note It is generally accepted that someone disturbed the Ripper before he could mutilate Stride's body and he fled. However, no one actually witnessed the killing.
