A SCOTS podcaster announced a show with Baby Reindeer’s ‘real life Martha’, Fiona Harvey.
James English, from Glasgow, will speak with Ms Harvey, 58, to discuss the hit Netflix drama on his Anything Goes podcast.
Ms Harvey has claimed she is the inspiration for the character Martha, but denies most of what is portrayed as being true.
James English, who has had sit down chats with ex-cons and major criminals, announced the latest project with her on his social media.
He posted a pic of Fiona Harvey to his Instagram account, promoting the upcoming episode.
The post was captioned: “Podcast with baby reindeer Fiona Harvey coming soon.”
Some fans of English were excited about the latest show.
One said: “Got the popcorn ready.”
A second wrote: “Yeh this is gonna be good.”
And a third replied: “You are the man for this interview James.”
But not everyone was in support of the latest interview, with some saying Ms Harvey should not be getting any attention.
Others pointed out that a man accused of stalking would not be given the same platform.
One said: “Would you get a male stalker on?”
A second wrote: “I am surprised at you James for jumping on this bandwagon, she shouldn’t be given this attention and platform at the end of the day.”
A third person commented: “Why is she getting publicity???
“Roles reversed and it was a male stalker would it all be fun and games??”
What Fiona claims is true in Baby Reindeer saga
Fiona Harvey – who claims to be the inspiration for the Baby Reindeer character Martha – says there is only one thing true in the Netflix show.
The seven-part series, which premiered last month, was written by comedian Richard Gadd and purports to be based on his own personal experiences of being stalked and sexually assaulted.
Gadd, 34, plays a fictionalised version of himself – Donnie Dunn – but Harvey, who was ‘outed’ by internet sleuths within hours of the show being uploaded, is adamant the story is “completely untrue”.
The 58-year-old law graduate said: “It’s a work of hyperbole, as I’ve always said. And there are two true facts in that. His name is Richard Gadd, and he works as a jobbing barman on benefits, in the Hawley Arms. And we met, two or three times…”
On whether she said he looked like a ‘baby reindeer’ toy she had as a child, she added: “I had a toy reindeer and he’d shaved his head, that bit is true, and there were reindeer in the shops because it was Christmas time or something. It was a joke.
“So I have inadvertently penned the name of the show.”
A fourth user replied: “We should not be giving this woman that type of attention. End of story.”
And a fifth said: “Nah not listening to this. Stalking is serious.”
Other fans suggested James should also interview Baby Reindeer creator James Gadd.
Fiona Harvey recently sat down for an interview with Piers Morgan on his Uncensored show.
Ms Harvey even branded Mr Gadd, 38, as a “complete psychopath” and accused him of defaming her with the Netflix show.
We previously told how Ms Harvey plans to sue the streaming giant and Richard Gadd over Baby Reindeer – which began as a Fringe show.
Despite Gadd’s pleas for people not to try and work out the real people from the story, internet sleuths uncovered Fiona’s identity within HOURS.
