News summary

Richard Gadd, the creator and star of Netflix's hit series 'Baby Reindeer', has shared the impact of the show on viewers, emphasizing its role in helping people understand their trauma. Inspired by Gadd's real-life experiences, the show portrays the character Donny, who is stalked by a woman named Martha, leading to legal disputes as the real Martha, Fiona Harvey, claims the portrayal is inaccurate and has sued Netflix for £132 million. Gadd hopes the show's legacy is about the positive responses from audiences and the comfort it has provided in addressing difficult themes of loneliness and connection. Meanwhile, Gadd faces criticism from Harvey's lawyer, who accuses him of seeking fame at the expense of others and expresses eagerness to challenge Gadd in court. While 'Baby Reindeer' has achieved significant success with 70 million views, it also raises questions about the ethics of storytelling and personal representation. The lawsuit is set to proceed in federal court in California next year, as both parties prepare to present their evidence.
