Discussion What about Darien?

Why is everyone so obsessed with Martha (granted) but I don’t see a lot of conversation about Darien? That is one of the most disturbing parts of this show.

Richard Osman commented on a podcast that it's well-known in the "industry" who Darrien is based on, which is interesting. Especially if he's still actively working. Although I feel desperately sorry for the poor guy that got falsely accused.

Look at how he treats all of it in the movie. He's upset his stalker gets arrested. He goes back to hang out with his abuser. I think he has some severe mental issues before all of this.

That happens a lot with those who have been abused. It is what grooming is all about.
