I think it’s more the manner of the abuse. Through grooming etc and that the victim is aware of what’s happened and voluntarily returns?
I can’t really relate to some of what I’ve read online about this being the darkest thing they’ve ever seen, can’t think of anything else a week later etc. Yeah the subject matter isn’t lighthearted in the least but come on.
Not a day of the week goes by where a woman isn’t depicted in some show or other being abused, drugged, raped, murdered, mutilated, you name it. If you can think of the worst degradation, it’s usually been a storyline. Depicted nude on a mortuary slab in a lot of cases. Gratuitous. Even though we know it happens in RL week in and week out.
The novelty of this show is the actor played a version of himself is different so I get that aspect.
He’s a self promoter on an epic scale I have to hand it to him.
To be honest why would he would he cast them so similar if he didn't want it coming out, he hasn't changed anything about her. There's tweets from her her social media profile being the same , she's exactly the same online as protrayed in the show she even looks similar to the actress. Also the actor to play his abuser even has him dressed the same and looks very similar.All getting a bit grim and uncomfortable now with the social media sleuths
Appreciate the stalker and the abuser both perpetrated awful things but there’s a chance it may not be these people - despite how it looks - and more lives may be ruined
This on top of that lady speaking about Richard Gadd himself, I don’t know.
One of the most thought provoking things I’ve watched in a long time but something really doesn’t sit well with the whole thing and I actually felt that after watching so maybe that shows how well done it was
I think this as well he said he didn't want it to come out it was her but he's literally changed nothing about her in the show. She hasn't mentioned anything about the show so hopefully she's not too bothered.I watched the first couple but found it a bit too depressing.
The thing playing on my mind is that if the stalker was in any way similar to the show. Is not a bit unethical to make a TV show about somebody so clearly unwell? Especially if you have reason to believe that they are a victim of abuse too. It may be therapeutic for him but it all seems a bit grim to turn into, essentially, entertainment.
But if she didn’t delete old tweets, that’s on her! I really don’t feel much pity for him! She made his life a living hell and her tweets and posts on fb are racist and really unpleasantTo be honest why would he would he cast them so similar if he didn't want it coming out, he hasn't changed anything about her. There's tweets from her her social media profile being the same , she's exactly the same online as protrayed in the show she even looks similar to the actress.

Someone asked for a screenshot of “Martha’s” fb, so I posted one. I didn’t delete it but now it’s gone?I'm not sure if I read it - give us a (vague, if necessary) idea what it said.
Seems to be focused on her local council and their staff members.She hasn't mentioned anything about the show so hopefully she's not too bothered.
Yeah she had the certificate on her fridge too- did she fake that? The story’s true obviously and I seem to remember someone said above she was trying to adopt a fake persona hence the writing styleIf she trained as a Lawyer, how come her posts are so full of spelling mistakes etc?
No I think it's true she has a picture of her in a graduation gown on her social media when she was much much younger.Yeah she had the certificate on her fridge too- did she fake that?

did you watch the show?View attachment 2890701
She’s completely unhinged. I’ve read through a few of her rants on Facebook and most of them barely make sense. It’s quite obvious she needs some kind of psychiatric intervention - she sounds so nasty and full of venom.
