Baby Reindeer on Netflix tells the stuff of nightmares, as a fictional retelling of the real-life stalking ordeal of comedian, writer and actor Richard Gadd.

The seven-part series stars Gadd as Donny, a struggling comedian whose act of kindness towards a stranger has devastating consequences.

Speaking about how Baby Reindeer is "much more" than a stalking story, Gadd told RadioTimes.com: "It's not just somebody hiding down a dark alleyway. For me, this show is about trauma."

He continued: "A lot of the characters in it - indeed, all of the characters in it, from my dad even all the way through to [Nava Mau's] character, Teri - they're all battling with feelings, emotions, traumas and all those things.

"I think Baby Reindeer displays this slice of life where all these different characters come together and almost try to cohabit in this crazy world."
