To think that everything Fiona Harvey said in her Piers Morgan interview was a lie? [Edit by MNHQ]

I don’t think Morgan understood that as he kept pushing her for a grade.

Go to the website of The Sun (as in the tabloid newspaper), find the dropdown menu where you can select which country's version you'd like, set it to UK. There's a full length version in their native video player on the front page of the desktop site. It's still working as of 0200 A/BST.

I'd love to tell you what time that equates to in Australia. Our oldest boy has just (literally just, like his flight touched down less than 48 hours ago!) moved to Australia, NSW and all I can tell you so far is that it's lots of different times in Aus at the same time🤯! Sure he'll explain it once he's over the jet lag lol

Because she didn't get a grade as such for her degree. It was an ordinary degree, so pass or fail. It's not the same as an honours degree where you get a grade, or classification.

I agree, I turned off when she started contradicting herself about halfway through. Really uncomfortable watch.

Looking at both Glasgow and Edinburgh unis website, it doesn't state that you need an honours degree. It simply states that to gain entry to the diploma, you must:

Have obtained an undergraduate law degree from a Scottish university (LLB), including passes in the required foundation subjects.

The video seems to have been taken down? I’m in Australia and it says it’s gone. Would like to watch it I’m genuinely fascinated.

Sure she said it was posted to the theatre.

I was thinking earlier this must be a massive international fake social experiment to prove how easy we are taken in and the whole series and PM interview is all fantasy but I guess the truth really is stranger than fiction.

Whatever the real truth is, Fiona needs help, she is not mentally well.

Oh, I would love to have been a fly on the wall in Lorraine Kelly's house 🤣

The whole interview was riddled with inconsistencies, wasn't it?

She was also weirdly defensive about pointless things - like, just say you got a 2-2 at uni, babes! - and her mask slipped a few times when she got angry and threw out some barbed comments that made her look anything but like the professional woman she was trying to convince us she is.

Overall, she was just SO MARTHA!

I can't see her life improving for a while, after that,

Am I missing something? Did she say she didn't know where he lived? And yet she admitted to sending one letter? How?

When Piers asks if she's challenging Richard to release the evidence you can see the look of absolute horror flash across her face

Also the repeating of how many emails a day would it take to add up to 41,000?
It seemed like she knew the exact answer but was pretending this was an absolutely unsolvable equation to "get away with it"

And AGAIN with bringing benefits into every fucking thread 🙄

Does anyone know if she is a lawyer. She said she had an ordinary law degree and a legal diploma. In Scotland you have to have a legal diploma to practice as a lawyer and need an honours degree to do the diploma so that was a bit odd.

It's evident that this lady is very unwell. Some of these comments are so cruel. I'm hoping this is all a big social experiment and she's in on it, because otherwise I worry about how this will pan out for her.

She’s clearly mentally unwell.

Batman 😂

I would have loads of questions .

why would you send a registered post to say good luck for the show .

why would you be emailing a bat man you met in a pub a few times .

why would you go to the show of someone you only met a handful of times .

You discussed a childhood toy with a Batman ?

so many things that didn’t make sense .

oh and she has definitely seen the show nothing mentioned about it was a surprise

Yes, I found that really weird.

Particularly when she said she saw that Gadd had a show at the Edinburgh festival 5 years ago on bbc breaking news.

???

Nobody knew who Gadd was 5 years ago. Why the hell would that be on BBC Breaking News??

Also, her smug little smile and laugh when Piers said he doesn't know anybody with 6 email addresses. "Well, you obviously don't know many people then"

This is how I feel about it as well.

I think she is unwell and needs to be left alone. I think she is being exploited.

However I also find her incredibly unlikeable and agree she is dangerous.

I was expecting her to be brighter than she is though. I don't think she comes across as intelligent or articulate. I think she's someone with a lot of misplaced confidence and a posh voice....but nothing beyond that.

Her awful pronunciation of hyperbole, her use of "£750-£100k" (whatever that means), her constant name dropping of Scottish lawyers, talking about how Gadd was "spreading gossip about her around Camden" like she thinks she is some sort of celeb (admittedly, she possibly is now, but not back when she was talking about).

She just seems to have such an inflated sense of her own importance.

From the sounds of it she has never worked.

I think she js not very bright. But I think she also thinks that everyone else is stupid too. she tells ridiculous, far fetched, unlikely lies.....and then gets visibly annoyed when someone dares to doubt her.

I fully believe she sent those 41,000 emails and think she is a very dangerous woman.

There must be a lot of cunts in your world then.

The last series of Black Mirror which I think ironically was on Netflix had an episode about a pseudo Netflix where someone sits down to watch a show they discover is an acted out version of their own life and the the people they know.

Im not watching cause fuck Piers. No one is trying to hold the grooming rapist tv producer to account, just the mentally unwell woman.

Netflix really fucked with this series. I’m cancelling subscription. Done with them. And trust Piers to get his rocks off by exploiting this.

Excellent thank you, that worked

Oh give yourself a shake for goodness sake. Can you please give clarity to your claim 56% of the population are on benefits?

Getting back to the OP it was an uncomfortable watch tbh. She reminded me a bit of Susan Boyle in interviews which made me wonder if she was ND?

She tripped herself up a few times and she completely skirted around the degree question (amongst others). Will she sue Netflix/Gadd/the Daily Mail? I won’t hold my breath.

Whether she's telling the truth or not doesn't change my opinion.
Either she's telling the truth and has been exploited by being lied about to create a drama.
Or she's not telling the truth and is an incredibly vulnerable person who, at the very least has had substantial mental health issues in the past, and is possibly still battling those, and in that case, a mentally ill person has been exposed in order to create a drama.
Netflix & Richard Gadd can't claim the moral high ground in either of those options.
They have exploited someone in order to further their own agenda.

It was never necessary for Baby Reindeer to be described as being based on a true story.
Let's not forget that there is also considerable speculation as to the real life identity of the rapist, and as such, potentially innocent men are finding themselves in a position where they feel they need to defend themselves.
When Richard Gadd was asked to put an end to the speculation, by revealing who the rapist is, he declined by claiming that 'everyone knows the identity of the rapist.'

If Richard Gadd didn't want to be asked to identify the people the characters are based on, perhaps he shouldn't have sold the drama as real, and instead, left it as a dramatisation.
