The gritty real-life drama was inspired by the ordeal suffered by Scots creator and leading man Richard Gadd, 34.

The then-struggling comic, while working in a London bar, hands Martha a free cup of tea before things turn sinister.

The series claims she subsequently bombarded the barman with more than 41,000 emails.

She also sent him hundreds of tweets and hours of voicemails over an alleged four-year campaign of terror.

Harvey will now break her silence in a Piers Morgan Uncensored interview on YouTube at 8pm.

Morgan said: "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 Piers Morgan Uncensored."

The trailer text for the interview reads: "The 'real Martha' from Baby Reindeer tomorrow on Piers Morgan Uncensored.

"sent from my ihphone."

In Baby Reindeer, the misspelt "ihphone" for iPhone reveals that Martha is not actually emailing from an Apple device.

Scots law graduate Fiona previously branded Gadd 'pathetic' in a savage social media blast.

‘It’s giving me nightmares’ say Baby Reindeer fans who say they can’t sleep and ‘switch off after episode 4’

She wrote online: "Everything about Gadd will not be talked about now until after my TV show.

"I hope you all tune in. The explosive real truth about Gadd is finally out.

Ms Harvey added: "I'm very nervous about my TV appearance."

Gadd claimed he went to great lengths to conceal the identity of the woman who stalked him in real life.

The comic begged fans not to search for the real Martha - but internet sleuths unmasked Harvey anyway.

Fiona is from Fyvie, Aberdeenshire and says she met Gadd years ago when he was a bartender at The Hawley Arms in Camden.
