"There's worse people in Skem than Martha": Residents react as 'Baby Reindeer star moves to Skelmersdale'

Scots comedian Richard Gadd is currently basking in the success of his Netflix series Baby Reindeer, which has become one of the streaming giant's most popular hits ever. The Fife-born comic, 35, portrays a fictionalised version of himself as he grapples with an unsettling stalker.

Fresh from his bombshell interview with ‘the real Martha,’ Piers Morgan has slammed “high-profile people in the business” who have said they know the identity of Richard Gadd‘s abuser portrayed in Baby Reindeer.

The awards ceremony is set for June 4 in NYC.

Spring has most definitely sprung and while for many it’s a time of joy, one in four of us are already battling the annual onslaught of hay fever symptoms – and it’s set to get worse.This year, the Met Office issued its first hay fever alert earlier than usual thanks to the warmest February on record.The mild temperatures saw alder tree pollen released a week early, while birch trees flowered two weeks ahead of schedule.Those early pollen bombs coupled with recent weather patterns have created a perfect storm for hay fever sufferers.The mix of sunshine and showers are prime conditions for flowering trees, which have bloomed four weeks early, according to the National Trust, while the recent high winds have helped the pollen spread. Grass pollen is usually expected around mid-May, but even this was airborne a month earlier, while weed pollen season will last from late June to September.
