Baby Reindeer | The (True) Backstory
/ @africaonnetflix
When a struggling comedian shows one act of kindness to a vulnerable woman, it sparks a suffocating obsession which threatens to wreck both their lives.
I binge watched this. It was incredibly well written and directed. The actors could not have been better cast because the talent is really good. I laughed, cried and yelled NO!! Several times. Best show I've since first season of "You" or "Dexter"
Richard Gadd did something really brave by telling his personal stories, even if some of them could make people treat him unfairly. By sharing, he's not only helping himself feel better but also showing others that they're not alone if they're going through tough times too. It's like he's saying, "Hey, I've been there too." That kind of openness can make people feel more connected and supported.
only watched this series because it was directed by the same person that directed The End of the F-ing world. Man I'm glad I watched. I was yelling at my tv 70% of this series, then saying okay Donny I know you're trying your best but please get some help. Best character is Donny's dad. From him dealing with Martha's calls to him supporting Donny when it all came out. Just 10/10

What are you talking about it’s not the same director… also saying “the same person that directed” when talking about shows with multiple directors is also a bit confusing. Or can you give me the name of whoever you mean, looking at it I don’t see any person involved in both shows(could be wrong though).
I didn’t know it was directed by the same person but now you say it I can completely see it. They’re very talented
@trassel1104 according to the Huffington Post, it's the same production company Clerkenwell Films. Not the director
it was the same director??? that explains why it was so good!!!!
I was stalked in college for a long time. She would follow me to classs when hers was on the other side of campus, meet up with my friends before I got there, slept outside of my dorm room on the floor and would text and call me over and over and over when she couldn’t find me. It was the first day of freshman year in the cafe and I told her I liked her bag and then she asked to sit with me.. that’s all it took.
I was stalked by my ex for 3 years and it was the most terrifying and most isolating feeling I’ve ever endured not knowing when they’re going to pop up
Being terrified any time I got a notification on my phone or any email or phone call etc
Watching this series was the most accurate showing I’ve ever seen of stalking in any tv or movie
It made me feel like I’m not alone here since I felt so ashamed that as a man I’m being stalked by a woman smaller then me and that no one would believe me or take it seriously
This series will make people open their eyes to the reality of how it really psychologically messes you up never feeling free even when you’re alone
brilliant writing, acting, directing, storytelling. blown away.
I liked this series a lot it was very real and as you said it frees people from shame around these things. Thank you for saving lives because shame is a heavy energy that is suffocating so many people. Thank you for being brave, thank you for being true.
I need to see Richard Gadd and Phoebe Waller Bridge together… I feel like the writing style and combination of depressive and comedic tones of baby deer is so similar to fleabag. Both of them started out as one man shows and ended up being translated into the most thought provoking, moving and engaging series, far more than most shows and films that have 15/20 writers.
This is one of those rare occasions where I come across a show that just gets what kind of storytelling I want…
Nothing put through rose tinted glasses, just brutal honesty about the disease of the human condition. British television at its finest.
I felt so gut wrenchingly heartbroken, so cringed out, so horrified, so embarrassed and saw such vulnerability in Martha…
How can you despise and adore a character so much??
Absolutely incredible
Please keep the truly horrible Gadd away from Phoebe W-B at all costs
I loved the series, myself being stalked by a man for eight years but under different circumstances. Emotional, naked, brave, creative, aesthetic, tragic and good entertainment. People need to talk about these things and get the stigma off the subject. This series really helps.
The absolute best show I've seen this year and in a long time. Excellently produced and performed. This is going to win plenty of awards. Such raw honesty even though it has elements of exhibitionism involved. I'm glad it is a well balanced show and is not victim oriented show. Martha's character is absolutely stunning and believable.
Jessica deserves all the recognition ❤
You succeeded on every level Richard. You should be very proud of yourself ❤
I had never heard of Richard Gadd before seeing a preview on Facebook for his series - so, I watched this to kind of get the back story - before I sit down to watch Baby Reindeer...And I am in love with this man! He seems so profound, deep and thoughtful and unique! I can't wait to watch the show now and I wish him peace, happiness and success...xoxo
Thank you for sharing your story with us. It was a painful, powerful and poignant masterpiece.
I hope that you find healing and peace in telling your story.
I found it incredibly moving.
You should be proud of yourself.

I love the switches of attitude from the actor, first it's uncomfortability, then the anger, then the bargaining and deals. It's so good
Richard, you have another lifelong fan now

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 yeaaahhh
I’m a huge cinema fan and have to say was completely surprised at how good this series was- from how it was filmed to the plot it’s self.. and the fact it was a TRUE story that the main character lived through and then acted. I am amazed.
I watched the entire series this evening, I felt so many emotions. I throughly enjoyed the acting, so many twists and turns in the storyline.
I cannot put words together to describe how I feel. This is very sad, honest and intimate peace of work...I somehow want put in the drawer next to my bed like my favourite book.
Moved touched broke repaired cried laughed healed broke opened my heart healed on my journey 🇳🇿🙏🙏❤
Oh man i bawled my eyes out, laughed, all the emotions, sych an incredible piece of art! It blew my mind when i found out the main character is the writer direcror and real life person who experienced all these things. What an amazing, brave, honest way to process your trauma and also help so many others by sharing it. This sbow is gomna be SO important!! It also blows my mind more people are concerned wirh finding and bashing the stalker (who clearly even the real life victim had sympathy for and could see she is just a very flawed human being probably acting from a place of her own trauma not that it excuses it, but there was some compassion shown towards her too definitely), instead of being concerned about who the real life groomer is. The ONLY part i hated about the show is the end where it insinuates they may work together again and leaves it at that. I really hope the real life groomer had some consequences or will be exposed thru all this finally and i hope donny didnt go back to work for him. Id hate to think he just kept doing it to more people or even to donny again, or just got away with it all :( tho i know thats probably sadly more realistic. Whoeever that was irl deserves the worst karma has to offer!
I just Binged watched this, Wow!!! What a story!!
Thank You for sharing your story. Its helped me understand my own trauma. It also helped me realize that we need to break the cycle of shame.
Best Netflix series so far...Bravo Richard Gadd.
Your story then was unique and I'm glad you shared it with the world. Thank you.
Two cup of teas!!!
I really love the show. You are very brave to present this to us. Thanks so much for the show. I subscribe Nelflix just for this show.
Nobody is this self aware without years of psychotherapy
Absolutely Brilliant Richard Gadd ✨😍
The acting is brilliant, especially the lead actors.
There should be stronger laws around stalking. Cannot believe how much a depraved person can get away with !
The situation is terrifying 😱😱
I must say he didn't seem to be able to set boundaries with anyone during that period of his life. A Martha and the "I'll help your career guy" are the type of people who near very clear message.
It does provide peace and comfort it really does.
Well done lad. Amazing man.
He disfrutado mucho esta serie. Tiene belleza, poética, honestidad, y todo lo que uno pueda esperar de las grandes obras de arte. O lo único que debe ser una gran obra de arte: un gran acto de valentía.
So good, such a ride!!!

Semplicemente un emozione.. ❤
Legendary ❤
Brave brave man.
I watch baby reindeer on repeat ❤❤
This movie was great but also weird❤ Baby Reindeer.
So this is his own story?
Sí
Yes
A stalker victim with Stockholm syndrome
It’s too bad this disturbing stalker story is being overshadowed by the carelessness of both Gadd and Netflix claiming it is a true story. Then stating it is based on a true story at the end makes no legal sense.
He's not mentally well. Let's hope they all get therapy.
4 facebook accounts make sense coz she said she has 4 phones
And 6 emails😂
This show made me so angry for the protagonist that it's so good
iphon
Jessica brought this character to life. What an amazing actress ❤️❤️❤️
It’s not JUST a stalker story though is it . The only reason you say it is is to sell it more . If you actually said what it was really about half as many people wouldn’t have watched it .
But has anyone looked into what Fred Macaulay did to him
Seems that’s been pushed to the side. First time I’ve heard a name. Once more people hear the name, maybe more people will come forward or he will be directly accused by Gadd.
The stalking was a minor incident in this absolutely perverted series. Far too much was addressed that left me wishing I could unsee it all.
dang, sucks that you were forced to watch it against your will!
❤❤hello
Martha???
Haven't watched yet, but where this woman now?
Alleged Martha Scott aka Fiona Harvey.
Watch piers Morgan show
Sadly Gadd lied about his “story” being completely real. That’s libel.
Hate that I'm still watching crap on this crap
When I first watched this I felt sorry for this guy.. however when I discovered he was playing himself I began to change my mind about Richard Gadd! As a rape survivor I can’t imagine ANYTHING worse than having to relive that by acting it! Writing it can be cathartic sure.. but I don’t know one person who has been through that who would put themselves through that trauma again by re enacting it .. and it makes me question him and his motives .. I also think if “Martha” Is as bad as he says .. to then exploit her to gain fame and money is sick! He’s not the victim he likes to play and he cynically managed to get a whole host of woke agendas in there to boot! The Martha woman is clearly not the full ticket .. she needs help and instead he set her up for the lynch mob! I think he’s a despicable ruthless fame hungry fraud!
I think he made up 90% of this
Fiona gonna get rich suing his ass and Netflix
It's not a true story and the stalker was not a real person. The whole thing was a dark, dirty, miserable load of drivel with mediocre acting.
And how do you know that its not real?
@animaidan400 Because Gadd lies. The story he tells is completely inconsistent. "I gave her one free cup of tea" No, he gave her a free drink every day when she came into the bar. This is just one of myriad inconsistencies in his story. Don't ask me to list them all, I don't have time for this misogynist fool
Seemed real as fuck
really because the real stalker started complaining that she was being defamed by the show
Hi Fiona (I mean Jenny) how do you know its not a real story and the stalker is not a real person?
