'If people see it they will know almost everything about me. They might 裁判官, they might not agree, and that innately comes with some degree of 苦悩, but that's what I 調印するd up for,' he told The Times.?

He pitched the show to Netflix after 連合させるing two 批判的に acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe shows, Baby Reindeer and Monkey See, Monkey Do, which 演説（する）／住所d his stalking and 性の 強襲，強姦 それぞれ.

But the show has 誘発するd 利益／興味 from would-be social マスコミ sleuths, who have tried to identify both the 最高の，を越す 人物／姿／数字 in comedy who 恐らく 強姦d him 同様に as his smitten stalker, played by?Jessica Gunning in the programme.

'When a man gets stalked it can be portrayed in films and television as a sexy thing, like a femme 致命的な who 徐々に becomes more 悪意のある. It doesn't carry as much 脅し of physical 暴力／激しさ, is いっそう少なく ありふれた and can be trivialised,' he said.

He now says he is いっそう少なく likely to 信用 people aft er his 逆の experiences with both men and women.

But a woman who （人命などを）奪う，主張するs she was also stalked by 'Martha' told the Mail she recognised the behaviours of Gadd's admirer, now 58, straight away.

Lawyer Laura Wray said her 'jaw dropped' as she watched the show, recognising the woman すぐに にもかかわらず Gadd's 成果／努力s to disguise her 身元.

'I feel sad that she managed to slip through the 割れ目s for so long when she's 明確に unwell,' Laura says.

She's 狼狽d, too, that the woman has now been identified on social マスコミ as a result of the Netflix show ? にもかかわらず Gadd's 主張 that he had obscured her 身元.

Laura said:?'They could have changed things without diluting the content, but they've made it so 現実主義の. They have portrayed her 絶対 位置／汚点／見つけ出す on, it is so 明白に the woman who stalked me. It is so uncanny.'
