One of the series that has captured considerable public attention in recent weeks is “Baby Reindeer.” The plot revolves around Donny Dunnan aspiring comedian who works in a bar, whose life takes a turn when he meets Martha Scottwho begins to harass him.
One of the aspects that has contributed to its appeal is its claim at the beginning of the episodes that it is a true story, which increases the concern when observing how the character of Martha (played by J.essica gunning) develops a dangerous obsession with Donny (Richard Gaddwho in addition to acting, is the creator of the program and the protagonist in real life).
