      This woman needs to be left alone. If everything is true then she’s clearly not well mentally, and if it’s untrue then an innocent woman is being dragged through the mud. There’s no outcome here that is good

      I absolutely think she should be left alone and is clearly unwell, the show should have made a much larger effort to conceal her identity. She is not prepared mentally for the spotlight she is receiving

      Having said that, she has this incredible car crash quality where you struggle to look away, she makes just enough sense to be incredibly compelling. If she was doing a club night near me I would definitely be interested, just to see what it is like

      I just find it mad, if the this was the other way round and a man there is no way he would getting invited on to Piers Morgan and being bounced around as a meme.

      I’ve not seen the show but from what I’ve heard and read the woman clearly needs help not mockery

      *It is not clear whether the event was a hoax as Kasbah Nightclub in Coventry has a history of advertising false personal appearances as a publicity stunt […] In an Instagram statement announcing Harvey’s event’s cancellation, the business thanked various publications for the ‘free publicity.’*

      *’Unfortunately, the promoter of this Saturday’s meet & greet with Fiona Harvey has deemed the event unsafe and cancelled the appearance due to the negative publicity, the nightclub’s statement began on Instagram.*

      Well done to the Metro for absolutely giving the club said free publicity without actually doing any investigation on if the event was ever genuine.

      Weird.

      There are levels to stalking and harassment, everyone has met or dealt with a “Martha” in their lives at some point which I think is why the show did so well.

      I cant fathom who thinks its a good idea to promote someone so publicly accused of those crimes.

      I personally have no idea if she was as bad as the shoes makes out. The show claims not to have used a likeness actress, wrong. The show claimed she had been to prison, wrong. Did she actually spend all that time at the bus stop, who knows, did she attack his GF, who knows, did she SA him at the canal, who knows. I particularly thought Gadd was encouraging her and then claimed he felt sorry for her was a cop out. The show is only told from his point of view and some of that made no sense. Like the comedy gig in the pub in Edinburgh, the show portrayed he was shit and making no money, then, using the same material, after talking to some dude he became funny, really. You are either funny or not. The fact he skims over his drug abuse after taking every drug know to man and just dismisses it as if it’s nothing. Oh I took heroin but it was nothing. The fact he kept going back to that guys apartment after ditching his Gf clearly shows he had a problem. He has never reported anything to the police.

      It’s bad enough that people think dressing up as Jimmy Saville for “banter”, but having a somewhat proud stalker doing an appearance…

      Am I the only one who really didn’t like this series? Lol. I feel this genre of storytelling just does nothing for me personally. This and Saltburn, just not for me I’m afraid

      Isn’t this the same place that advertised a night with Matt Hancock? It’s largely clickbait as far as I can tell to get column inches and seems to be working.

      The people obsessed over this entire thing are absolutely unhinged. I don’t understand how it’s so compelling that people spend so much time going over every little detail and trying to “investigate” into all this. I can’t wait for this whole thing to blow over. Sick of seeing her face plastered everywhere.

      I haven’t seen Baby Reindeer but why are people sticking up for this women. Isn’t the whole accusation that she’s a stalker and she sexually assaulted someone?

      I’m from Coventry and honestly this club has a long history of stupid shit like this. It’s just never made it past local FB groups or local news.

      The club is shit they only can draw students in because they don’t know any better.

      It was absolutely genuine, they claw for publicity so I’m sure they are all very happy they got their shit hole on the map again. Albeit for a small time.

      Worst Club in the West midlands

      Edit: someone reported me as someone who needs mental help. Thanks for the concern

    17. JoeThrilling on

      I must be the only person who has no idea what this Baby Reindeer shit is.

    18. Resident_Elevator_95 on

      How she has been treated is everything wrong with this hyper capitalist consumerism the west has adopted

      She is a victim of her mental health and needs help.

      We do jump on weired shit to get outraged about. Would be good if we did it for stuff that actually matters and we can force some actual change on.
