The series was a hit and became one of Netflix’s most watched shows ever. But the dark comedy thriller has came under fire from those who claimed to have been depicted by the series Fiona Harvey came forward claiming to be the inspiration behind Martha, alleging the story was inaccurate, and filed a lawsuit against NetflixAt the beginning of the first episode, text appears on the screen which says: ‘This is a true story.’In the drama, said to be inspired by the real-life experiences of Gadd, his character Donny Dunn is hounded by Martha after he serves her a free cup of tea in the pub where he works.In the TV series, Martha receives a nine-month prison sentence and a five-year restraining order, which Ms Harvey has disputed.MailOnline reported in July that Ms Harvey was demanding £135million from the streaming giant, claiming they spread ‘brutal lies’ because ‘it was a better story than the truth’.Ms Harvey said: ‘The problem for Richard Gadd and now for Netflix is that Baby Reindeer is not a true story at all.’I am not a convicted stalker’.Ms Harvey’s US legal representative Richard Roth said she has a ‘very, very strong case’ and he expects Ms Harvey, Gadd and Netflix executives to testify in court in California.In a candid interview with Piers Morgan in June, Mr Roth said the fallout from the Baby Reindeer case ‘could be a watershed moment for streaming TV’. Fiona Harvey came forward claiming to be the inspiration behind Martha, alleging the story was inaccurate, and filed a lawsuit against Netflix Speaking about why he had taken the case, Mr Roth said: ‘[It] is really just reprehensible when someone says something’s ‘a true story’ […]. And if Netflix is going to say this is a true story, then it better well be true. And to do that is irresponsible of them.’Speaking at Edinburgh TV Festival, Ms Mensah said publicity is ‘the antithesis of what I believe in’, when asked if the headlines about the show were good for Netflix.She added: ‘I really believe the UK is this amazing place for content creators and the writers and the directors… and it’s 100 per cent about finding ways to take this space.’It’s not about trying to manipulate anybody (with) an algorithm. The truth is way simpler, which is the audience is incredibly clever and incredibly diverse, and they spot good and not boring.’The 76th annual Primetime Emmy Awards is set to honor the best of television at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, California on Sunday, September 15.The ceremony will be hosted by Eugene Levy and Dan Levy, who are making history as the first father-son duo to emcee the program. In 2020, the actors took home their own respective Emmy Awards for their work on their hit series, Schitt’s Creek, which they created and starred in for six seasons. ‘For two Canadians who won our Emmys in a literal quarantine tent, the idea of being asked to host this year in an actual theater was incentive enough,’ they said in a statement to Vanity Fair, last month, while confirming their hosting gig. The pair continued: ‘We’re thrilled to be able to raise a glass to this extraordinary season of television and can’t wait to spend the evening with you all.’The Bear set a new record for nominations in a single year in the Comedy category with 23 (previously held by 30 Rock with 22 nominations in 2009), and Shōgun leads this year’s Drama category with 25 nominations.The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Jennifer Aniston, Selena Gomez, Jon Hamm and Quinta Brunson are among the nominees that are vying for some the evening’s top prizes.
