Privacy NoticeAs Netflix unveils its chilling new drama Baby Reindeer, audiences are in for a spine-tingling ride into the dark and disturbing world of stalking and obsession. Based on the harrowing true story of Richard Gadd, who both pens and stars in the series, Baby Reindeer delves deep into the terrifying ordeal he endured at the hands of a relentless stalker, Martha Scott. In the series, Richard portrays Donny, a character inspired by his own experiences, whose life takes a terrifying turn after a simple act of kindness spirals into a nightmare of relentless harassment and intrusion. Determined to reclaim his narrative and confront his trauma head-on, Richard channelled his experiences into a powerful stage play titled Baby Reindeer, which garnered critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival before making its mark in London’s Bush Theatre.

Jessica’s co-star Richard, who plays Donny, the character influenced by his own ordeal, recently shared a backstage photo of the pair of them on social media, leading to many fans expressing their hopes for her to get online. “Please get her on Instagram, she’s a star,” one fan wrote, while another commented: “Wish she had social media.” A third added: “You both are stars!”

Jessica shocked fans during an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine as they discovered that, despite her impressive accent on the hit Netflix show, she is not actually Scottish. Host Lorraine Kelly chatted to comedian Richard about his football team Dundee United yet was hugely stunned when Jessica spoke in a West Yorkshire accent. This prompted the anchor to squeal to the cast member : “You obviously sound so different! “Can I say as a Scottish person – and we are both Scottish people [gesturing to Richard] – cracking accent! “I honestly thought you were Scottish!” Jessica, who was giggling, then replied: “Thank you so much!” Lorraine continued: “And you speaking like that, it’s like ‘wow! Is Jessica talking funny?’ It’s amazing.” One show fan was quick to agree and took to X to write: “Wait.. #JessicaGunning isn’t Scottish????? “WOW…. She does an incredible Scottish accent!!
