'I behaved like a p***k – but my stalker is a victim' says Baby Reindeer star
Baby Reindeer star Richard Gadd has made the surprising admission that he views his stalker as a victim after she sent him more than 40,000 messages - and says he 'egged the situation on'
He also said that he views his stalker - represented as a character called Martha who is played by Jessica Gunning in Baby Reindeer - as a victim.

Richard said that he thought the current harassment laws were "stupid" because they were too "black and white" as they classed the behaviour of his stalker as legal and didn't take into account the effect it could have on a victim's life.
