‘Baby Reindeer’ series review: A raw, riveting take on obsession and abuse

The Hindu  

After the eminently bingeable Fallout, comes Richard Gadd’s equally binge-worthy Baby Reindeer, which talks of a different kind of fallout. Baby Reindeer Creator: Richard Gadd Cast: Richard Gadd, Jessica Gunning, Nava Mau Episodes: 7 Run-time: 27 to 45 minutes Storyline: An aspiring comic finds his life derailed by a random act of kindness In the unbearably brilliant fourth episode, we get to learn of the trauma that defines Donny’s life and future interactions. After Keeley and Donny break-up, Donny continues to live at Liz’s place till Martha finds out where he lives and begins to sit at the bus stop close to his house for over 15 hours! As Martha begins to attack Donny’s parents in Scotland, Keeley and Teri, Donny is forced to take action and that is when he finds the police less than helpful.
