*TRIGGER WARNING - THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES THEMES OF ABUSE*

In this Monday's hot topic Lala breaks down Netflix's hit show, Baby Reindeer. She looks at the backgorund of the main character 'Donny' (played by Richard Gadd in an autiobiographical role) and the abuse that he suffered prior to meeting his stalker, Martha. Lala looks at the behaviour 'Donny' displays as a victim of sexual abuse first and then of stalking, and at how common and understandable it is that victims keep going back to their abusers.

If you'd like to ask Lala a question or a suggest a hot topic for her head to @asklalalaletmeexplain on Instagram and let's navigate this romantic landscape together!
