“Reindeer” is a story that starts innocently. But this is only an appearance, because a few dozen minutes later we witness how the entire world of a young comedian from England collapses because of one person. A woman comes to the bar where Donny (i.e. Richard Gadd) works and orders tea, admitting that she has no way to pay for it. The bartender takes pity on her and tells her that the drink will be on the pub’s expense. The woman claims that she is a lawyer and that she has worked with the most prominent figures in the country. Her story seems inconsistent from the very beginning.
Later it only gets worse. From the moment the bartender showed her a little heart, the series’ Martha begins to follow Donny’s every move and persecutes him mercilessly. Her obsession is getting higher and higher. Richard Gadd transferred scenes taken from his own life directly to the screen, which only intensifies the sense of terror when faced with Martha’s obsessive desire to be as close to the series’ Donny as possible.
“Reindeer”. A bullying story that moved the world
During the entire period of harassment, the woman sent him over 41,000 e-mails, recorded 350 hours of voice messages, published 744 tweets and 46 posts about him on Facebook. She also sent him 106 pages of handwritten letters. The obsessive desire to be with a man caused her to have fits of rage, during which she violated the boundaries of her victim’s intimacy and molested her.
The woman also harassed Gadd’s family and former partners. She called them names, tried to attack them and harassed them on social media. Step by step, she destroyed the comedian’s life. The man retained all evidence of Martha’s attempts to contact him. He reported the matter to the police, but they downplayed it for a long time.
The series quickly became one of the ten most watched productions on Netflix, and viewers from all over the world began to speculate who the people featured in it might be. Despite the series’ creators’ clear appeals not to do so, they started looking for the real Martha on social media and tried to find out who the series’ Darrien was, a rapist who had repeatedly abused the main character. Even some portals joined the “search”.
The stalker decided to reveal herself. The 58-year-old lawyer (as she calls herself) comes from Scotland and introduces herself as Fiona Harvey. She is supposed to be the prototype of Martha. On Thursday, she gave an interview to Piers Mogran in the program “Uncensored”, episodes of which are published on YouTube.
The stalker from “Reindeer” is Fiona Harvey. Now she gave an interview
According to foreign media, the stalker was supposed to speak publicly before the premiere of the interview. In an interview with the Daily Record, she stated, for example, that she did not like the way Morgan conducted the interview. She compared it to a “sparring match” and added that she was not satisfied with the journalist’s “interrogation”.
Piers kept telling me, ‘Are you sure you didn’t send this guy 41,000 emails?’ And for most of the interview, a good 10 minutes, he kept coming back to it. I said, ‘Look, even though I sent a few emails, that doesn’t mean I’m to blame for the rest. As I said, for something to be considered a true story, it has to be 100 percent true
– she said. She also added that Piers Morgan did everything “quickly to surprise her” and that she felt “set up.” She called the “Reindeer” series “a pack of nonsense.”
– The real Martha from “Reindeer” comes out of hiding and gives her first interview about the Netflix series. Fiona Harvey wants to be heard and set straight. Is she a psychopathic stalker? – with these words Morgan announced the premiere of his program with Fiona Harvey. Emotions after the conversation published just yesterday are still there. The stalker revealed, among other things, that she is considering taking legal action against Richard Gadd and the streaming platform.
Internet users comment: “After this interview, I am convinced that Richard is not lying”
Fiona Harvey maintained throughout the interview that she had not seen the series and did not intend to watch it. However, she was able to recall every single detail of the production with surprising accuracy, which was noticed almost immediately by Internet users. The comments under the published interview speak for themselves. Some people write directly that Fiona Harvey behaves identically to Martha from the series. They claim that Harvey’s way of speaking and behavior proves that she is Martha from “Reindeer”.
After this interview, I am 100 percent convinced that Richard is not lying
She says she hasn’t watched the show, but somehow she knows everything that happened in it
From her mannerisms, awkward swallowing, and voice change, it’s safe to say she’s absolutely lying.
She said she didn’t know where Gadd lived, but admitted she sent at least one letter
‘I’m nothing like Martha,’ but she sits there for an hour and acts exactly like Martha
That does the trick. ‘Reindeer’ is a true story, and Jessica is SUCH a good actress that it was practically a meta-documentary
– we read in selected entries under the video.
The stalker from “Reindeer” about sending e-mails. “He invented them himself”
Piers Morgan allowed Harvey to give his own side of the story. A 58-year-old Scottish woman admitted, for example, that she met Richard Gadd in the Hawley Arms pub in Camden Town. She claimed that she did not order – like the heroine of the series – a Diet Coke, but lemonade. When asked if she actually called the comedian “reindeer”, she replied in the affirmative. She explained that it was supposed to be a joke between them. However, she denied that she did not send Gadd 41,000. the news. But a moment later she added that she “could have written a few.”
I think he probably made them up himself. This is fiction, a work of hyperbole
– said Morgan’s interlocutor.
She also referred to the fact that after the premiere of “Reindeer”, fans of the production started looking for her. – I find it horrible and misogynistic. Some of the death threats on the Internet were really terrible, people called me, she said. Claiming that she did not know the comedian’s address, she stated that she had never been to his house and denied that she had also harassed his parents. She called it “very defamatory” and “very damaging to her career.” – I am not a stalker, I have not been to prison – she argued.
