Watch Piers Morgan interview the real life "Martha" from Baby Reindeer here

Piers Morgan will interview "Martha", whose real name is Fiona Harvey, on whom Netflix series Baby Reindeer is based. Fans can watch the interview this Thursday, 9 May, at 8pm (UK time) here.

Announcing the interview, Piers tweeted: " *WORLD EXCLUSIVE* The real-life Martha from Baby Reindeer breaks cover and gives me her first TV interview about the smash hit Netflix show. Fiona Harvey wants to have her say & ‘set the record straight.’ Is she a psycho stalker? Find out tomorrow on @PiersUncensored"

The series has been watched by millions around the world and is on course to become the most watched series on the platform, ever.

Netflix describe the show, saying the "series is a true story, written by and starring Richard Gadd, who adapted his award-winning one-man play into a seven-episode limited series. Much like its multihyphenate creator, the show lends itself to multiple genres, a compelling mingling of heavy emotion and humor that Gadd tells Tudum is not only an artistic choice, but is also true to reality".

“Stalking on television tends to be very sexed-up. It has a mystique. It’s somebody in a dark alley way. It’s somebody who’s really sexy, who’s very normal, but then they go strange bit by bit,” Gadd explains. “But stalking is a mental illness. I really wanted to show the layers of stalking with a human quality I hadn’t seen on television before. It’s a stalker story turned on its head. It takes a trope and turns it on its head.”
