People haven't been able to get Baby Reindeer out of their minds ever since it first dropped last month (11 April).

After the Netflix show hit our screens a few weeks back, viewers have been hooked on the story, which follows Richard Gadd, who plays a fictionalised version of himself, Donny Dunn, who finds himself in a terrifying situation when he was relentlessly harassed by a stalker.

If you've somehow been living under a rock and not yet rattled through it, the seven-episode drama focuses on Donny's warped relationship with a middle-aged woman named Martha (played by Jessica Gunning), who becomes his stalker after they meet at the pub in which he works.

After Baby Reindeer aired, some viewers tried to track down the real-life characters from the show - including Martha - despite Gadd's insistence that they shouldn't.

Even Martha's actor, Jessica Gunning, also urged people 'not to do it', telling Glamour: "I think if that is happening, I think it's a real, real shame because it shows that they haven't watched the show properly.

"That's not the point of it in any way. Netflix and Richard went to extreme lengths to try and make sure that the identities were kept private for a reason."

A woman named Fiona Harvey has since emerged, having been dubbed the 'real-life Martha'.

Since then, Piers Morgan invited Fiona to speak on his Piers Morgan Uncensored YouTube channel.

Morgan made the announcement of the interview last Wednesday (8 May) in which he described it as 'compelling'.

He later posted a picture of himself and Harvey, saying she wanted to 'set the record straight' and 'have her say'.

But as the show aired the following evening (9 May), viewers were left horrified by the interview, with many finding the chat 'uncomfortable'.

Meanwhile, others took to social media to claim that the interview was 'irresponsible' and 'unethical'.

Following the backlash, Morgan later spoke out about the comments he'd received.

And now, Harvey is reportedly lined up for yet another interview on an episode of Anything Goes with James English, according to an Instagram post by the podcast host himself.

He uploaded a photo of Fiona and captioned it: "Podcast with baby reindeer Fiona Harvey coming soon."

With the post gaining over 10,000 likes, commenters were quick to respond, with one person saying that we 'were living in mad times'.

While another said: "I reckon you should interview Richard Gadd after too.... he's a complex character too."

However, many questioned the 'publicity' surrounding the situation.
