  • It’s the show everyone’s talking about, ‘Baby Reindeer’ and it’s already hit number 1 on Netflix. The dark comedy TV series is based on Richard Gadd's real-life experience of being stalked. Today Richard and his co-star Jessica Gunning join Lorraine, Richard tells us how he coped with reliving some of his past traumas, and why he blames himself for some of his stalker’s behaviour. As well as that, he’ll explain why he always wanted Jessica to play the role of Martha and Jessica reveals how she came up with Martha's iconic laugh and why she didn't do any research on her for the show.

    You can tell the women who played Martha really dug deep to understand the real Martha’s emotion and thought process. Thats why her acting was such high quality. Really well written as well which would if helped.

    This series honestly made me cry from Martha's story on how and why she turned out the way she did and how she saw Donny has her stuffed toy baby reindeer it brought her a sense of love and wanting something she didn't get when she was wrong and I also felt the pain for Donnie and what he had to go through I appreciate this series.

    It's incredibly admirable how Richard Gadd bravely shared his personal experiences, even those that might make him vulnerable to prejudice. His courage in opening up not only helps him in his healing journey but also extends a supportive hand to others who may be going through similar struggles.

    Imagine sharing parts of your life to a multitude of people and still being accepted after, the relief it must bring. (Especially in never having to retell it again & the opportunity to be able to finally let it go completely and allow yourself to move on entirely from it because it’s not something you have to fight to remember anymore, as if remembering it confirms that it was real for you even tho you want so badly to forget & eventually you do, but the aftermath can’t seem to leave with it) I wish I had the energy to piece back together some of mine (can’t even imagine where I would begin at this point) & courage to do the same. I admire this man for going through this incredibly difficult process & for being so raw, transparent, unfiltered & real. & kudos to the actors for capturing the complexity of humans from depicting the current of events accurately.

    This series!!! Oscar worthy for the writing, the acting- so artistically done- and to have the writer act this- my mind is blown at how brilliantly gifted Richard is. I’ve had two stalkers in my life, neither lasted this long- one 7 months and one 20 years later for a month- both so similar. I love that this film went so deep and that there was so much self reflection. I love that Richard had such a lovely Trans girlfriend who set some tough boundaries and got him to start self reflection. This series was so beautiful. I can’t say enough good things about it but days later I can’t stop thinking about it.

    What an incredible story. It was very hard to watch, but it was so gripping you just had to stay with it. It was that good. I hated how much they all suffered but felt like I owed it to their efforts to stay with it. Shocking.
