A woman believed to be the inspiration behind the character Martha in hit Netflix series Baby Reindeer has said she is going to sue Netflix and creator-turned-star Richard Gadd over the “defamatory” depiction.
Fiona Harvey said she has been “forced” into telling her side of the story after receiving death threats from “internet sleuths” following the release of the Netflix show.
Media lawyer Mark Stephens joins Talk to discuss whether Netflix could be sued by Harvey. He says that online sleuths had identified Fiona Harvey despite Netflix's efforts to anonymize her, and argues it would be possible for to take legal action if she can demonstrate she has suffered "serious harm".
In the drama series inspired by the real-life experiences of comedian and writer Gadd, his character Donny is stalked by a woman named Martha Scott after he serves her a free cup of tea in the pub where he works.
On Piers Morgan Uncensored, Ms Harvey repeatedly denied stalking Gadd in real life, describing the show as “a work of fiction, a work of hyperbole”.

She has a photographic memory, but didn't do as well or can't remember her marks from law school? Having a photographic memory is so rare only a very very small percentage of the population in the entire world has that gift..She would remember everything she's ever read ,including grades...She acts like the character Martha who seems delusional and believes her own lies... I'm sure Richard knowing that making up outrageous claims would hold him liable and doubt he would've been so careless as to say she committed such extreme acts of harassment and I'm sure along with people around at the time along with a "paper trail" of voicemails, emails... She just said oh, he forged them... I personally don't believe her , just by going by the responses she gave during this interview, which I'm sure paid her a lot to give.I don't think she's being honest . What a situation for Gad now..

Regardless, they should’ve done far more to protect her identity. She’s clearly a very sick woman + they cashed in on her. People with personality disorders WILL respond … terribly/trigger another cycle. Her behaviour + perception of reality is completely normal for someone as ill as her. They could’ve and should’ve adapted her character + taken some other measures so she couldn’t be tracked down in 5mins. It wouldn’t have impacted the storyline if done well. I feel sorry for her. She needs help. I hope she at least gets some money out of it… Or someone in the Psychiatric world reaches out and offers her help or inpatient program free of charge… and goes public educating the public of her illness. I have a friend who ran one of the only programs in Australia for people with personality disorders (6mths of full time, Mon-Fri, group therapy + practical life skills)… what those people go through (and the impact they have on those around them) if left untreated is really sad. There’s apparently only a few types of therapy styles that can help them… their illness is very difficult to treat (most interventions are ineffective/a lot of therapists won’t see them). I find that really sad/can’t imagine what it must be like. Sure she creates hell for those around her… but she doesn’t deserve not to have her identity protected.

I mean, they say in the credits that some things were changed for artistic or dramatic effect. Which is essentially a disclaimer that it's not 100% accurate, so it's not stating slander as fact. Not to mention, the creator admits openly some things were embellished. Slander is lying about someone with malicious intent to hurt them. If it were a documentary claiming everything was true and outed her ID, she might have a case. This is a drama series. She has no case.

Unfortunately that's not how the law works - 1) Netflix said at the outset that "This IS a true story" and only mentioned about the dramatization in the credits that nobody watches 2) The public is really quite stupid, they will take the whole thing at face value which they did and some decided to harass her at her own home because the film makers included information that made her easily identifiable (Her twitter posts at verbatim) 3) Netflix did not specify WHICH parts were dramatized (eg that she went to prison, that it was 40k emails instead of 18 or 20 odd emails as she claimed which wouldn't make for a good story, would it?) - Only a court case could verify her and his claims properly 4) It doesn't mean she is innocent and not a stalker but if any of these claims are exaggerated to the point that it would cause public outcry, yes it is a problem and defamatory - especially if it, ironically, leads to her being stalked 5) Even if the entire story is correct to the T, Netflix must follow due diligence in protecting her identify which they hopelessly failed at (even though Gadd thinks otherwise - but it took the public all of 5 minutes to find her)
@Jasonxknot
@Jasonxknot Месяц назад
​@thesupergreenjudy It doesnt matter where they put the disclaimer. All that matters is they put somewhere where everyone can read it. Some people watch credits, others dont. You cant prove in court that no one watches the credits, but you can prove the disclaimer was in the show and available to everyone who watched it. This lady was lying through her teeth on Piers. Court records arent available to the public in the UK like they are in the United States, so you cant look up if she has criminal records. But, if you look up her real name, you'll find news articles on her stalking history, going back to 1997. Her name is Fiona Muir-Harvey. She normally goes by Fiona Muir, but chose Harvey for Piers Morgan. Look up Fiona Muir and you'll find the articles. What she did in 1997 sounds very similar to what's portrayed in the show.

@@Jasonxknot Well we may have to agree to disagree (by the way, I am not claiming she is an innocent victim but the law is still the law) - a court may indeed find that Netflix should have made it clearer - especially as they started it off on the premise that it is a true story just to backtrack later in the credits. Words matter. Now, even if the story was correct to the T, Netflix may still be liable if she can prove that they haven't done their due diligence in protecting her identity (quoting tweets at verbatim which can be found on Google within 5 minutes is a big red flag). And even if it was all correct, that doesn't change the fact that the harassment of her by the public is a crime of which the driving motivator was that Netflix show. If she has a good lawyer (Even a No win - No Fee lawyer) , she could probably win

I know she did herself no favours as at first she said she only met him 2 to 3 times then it was 5 to 6 times at the end of the interview. I honestly think she isn’t well. But I do think Netflix has jumped on the bandwagon here too. He also was desperate for fame and kept going back to that producer whom he knew was a groomer and abuser. So that shows flaws in his character too where he was desperate to get fame. Is that was has been the driving force for this. The truth will come out in the end

The film is HIS side of the story. I'm convinced he took some "artistic liberties." Don't forget: he's the guy who would do almost anything for fame. He did almost nothing to hide "Martha's" true identity. This film feels at least partly like revenge. Not saying anything Fiona did was right, but she didn't deserve to be exposed and swatted. She needs help, not harassment. We could see 10 different versions of BR and still not get at the truth.

I think the difference between “this is a true story” and “this is based on a true story” is something that could be sued. We know without relying on Fiona that her having a previous stalking prison sentence and her having one from stalking Gadd is not true. Gadd said he disguised the character so much they wouldn’t recognise themselves, they’re both fat Scottish women claiming to be lawyers, there was no care in disguising the superficial details, what he changed were the more serious allegations. It’s likely she sent thousands of emails but she wasn’t a the threat he made out.

It doesn't make sense. If she didn't do anything portrayed on the show, what makes her think that the show was based on her interactions with Gadd? If people harassed her accusing her of being real life Martha, she should have just said "you're wrong, it certainly wasn't based on me". Instead she appeared live and made an interview CONFIRMING that she is real life Martha. Nowhere in the show it's mentioned that Fiona Harvey has anything to do with the story. As far as I'm aware, she can't even prove she's real life Martha. She's exposing herself at her own will and wants to blame Gadd and the series for it. I seriously doubt she's gonna win any case against Gadd and Netflix. It may turn out even worse for her if actual proof of the things she supposedly did appear in court.

The thing for me is that the actress not only looked, sounded and acted like her, but also typed like the supposed tweets of hers from 2014. I’ve seen a lot of people saying she outed herself, when clearly she didn’t I was well aware of who Fiona was within about 10 minutes of finishing the show and I’ve not made a single attempt to look for who any of them are, but for the actress to have nailed so much about this woman without ever seeing or meeting her at all is either sublime acting, highly coincidental, or gadd has made an obvious attempt to portray this woman, in which case she has a right to completely defend herself. The onus is now on gadd to provide receipts or unfortunately in my opinion he’s going to be seen as the exaggerator here. I think it’s pretty sickening that most people watched this show and are more angered by the character who stalks gadd and clearly has mental illnesses over the man who LITERALLY drugged and Gr@ped him. Why were people bothered by who ‘Martha’ is and people aren’t as hell bent on finding ‘darrien’ to me, one needs medicating the other needs arresting and it’s blatantly obvious which one.

Surely she would say that it did happen, if she were truly obsessed with him? He’d better be able to solidly back up his claims because he sounds like the obsessed one!

Fiona had no need to do an interview with Piers Morgan. She could easily have removed herself from social media ... long ago. She comes across as more Martha than "Martha".😢

People were calling her house and how long would it be before they turn up at her home? She had no choice but to address it before it got worse. No matter what she does or say, she has been judged as a violent stalker. How would you cope with the whole word against you?

If you cannot see the clear contractions between the two interviews (that I’ve seen) that she makes then you are not informed, watch the interviews in full as she Denys one thing to admit it later. She is on a money grab and it’s that simple, the worst part is, she knows the laws and danced around it like a pro. She is a living nightmare, I met a person like her once, she terrified me and I’m a big guy.

He probably should have written in the All persons fictitious disclaimer. "Any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental". I think even biopics (despite being "true" stories) have this clause just to avoid any legal strife if they dont get the story exactly right (as there are always oversights or different first hand memory of a story that can be warped a bit).

If she did not go to jail then Netflix shouldn’t claim it as based on a true story. I think it is between them and the individual would know that it is her that he is trying to make out as a villain. She would know and she has the personal right to sue them if majority of it was a lie. Unless, he comes out and disclose who it is and he fully denies that it wasn’t this person. If it is true that it is her and he fabricated the stories against her just to be “famous” or any other vendetta he got, THEN HE IS TO BLAME and most likely a PSYCHOPATH. If in case, this person is on the right side, I’m not going to be surprised. If not, then good. A psychopath loves to play the victim then scapegoat it to the actual victim, I have experienced this myself. They know the power of gaining people’s sympathy and the power of SOCIAL MEDIA. It is an actual attempt of the real villain to ostracize and isolate the real victim. In switching the roles, the fastest way- social media, it’s like “toxic shame” passing it onto you, the fastest way to destroy someone. I am only sharing the POSSIBILITY but if all his stories are true then he gained my admiration because I liked his artistic expression of an abstract pain of a life.

Well IF Fiona does indeed go ahead with her threats to sue then she will need to build her case supporting her claims.. She denied any harassment and any past run ins with the law so IF she is telling the truth then there will be no evidence off the harassment etc... Otherwise it will add to her embarrassment if all the evidence indeed proves the validity of the show!

If she didn't go to court then jail, then the whole story has been embellished to represent something that on the whole is extremely boring. If the story reflected the reality that she wasn't prosecuted then there really was no basis for a series in the first place as I am sure there are many more credible stalking experiences that have occurred to people with a tangible, credible outcome that would be worth making a series out of. More worrying is the fact that they have outed a 'stalker ', when in fact the real story should have been Gadd being raped, returning for more, his struggle with his sexuality and the eventual prosecution of his rapist. I find it all quite bizarre and lacking in any real credibility. I fear there are lies on both fronts. Pure sensationalism to make a few quid. This story was more fantastical than Forrest Gump.

It would be good to have their devices analysed to get the real facts of this case. That's one way to find out if the show is false and based on lies. I feel she doesn't come across like the character in the show. She's qwerky for sure but she doesn't seem to be unwell or obsessed to a heightened degree like the character. She did say in the piers Morgan interview though initially that she didn't think she sent him any emails. Then goes on to change that to estimate a total of around 18. So that answer did change and made me question her. Overall though I actually believe her when she says the show is fiction. He doesn't exactly depict himself in a great light so I wouldn't be surprised if its all made up. He himself came across as unstable as the character and using the woman to make himself feel better. Anyway its a very fascinating yet disturbing case either way. I would watch a trial if it was televised.

All Gadd and Netflix had to do was print the disclaimer that it was based on a true story but some characters and dialogue has been fictionalised for dramatic purposes. For whatever reason, they didnt, so the burden of proof will be on them if she takes it to court. He better have 41000 emails, he better have witnesses that she stood for days outside his house and witnesses to his girlfriends attack. Its entirely possible he based Martha on Fionas unusual personality without it being 100% factual and that is when it becomes libelous. We dont know but she could be a very successful lawyer, quirky or not and people pointing the finger at HER being Wartha will have been extremely damaging. She isnt playing the system at all if Gadd has no proof that A stalker did the things he said they did. And in choosing an actress that looks and sounds like Fiona HE made Fiona recognisable to the public. If he has all the proof, she will never be able to pay the court costs and damages they would be so high, and as a lawyer she will know that

The way I see it. Richard hasn't made himself out to be 100% innocent, in fact, in the series , hes made himself look like an idiot, he encouraged her, he kept contact with her , and apparently slept with her. Fiona, however, has made herself out to be whiter than white, very innocent, yet has told numerous lies in the interview, or shall we say, .contradictory slip ups.. Richard, by admitting his mistakes comes across , far more believable than someone who denies everything and implies they've done no wrong.
