Baby Reindeer viewers spot ‘chilling’ subtle detail in every email shown in the series

Baby Reindeer viewers spot ‘chilling’ subtle detail in every email shown in the series

The Netflix series is based on a harrowing true story

We've been absolutely spoilt as of the recent with Netflix providing us with banger after banger.

However, there's one programme in particular on the streaming platform that seems to have caught the attention of the internet and that is none other than Baby Reindeer.

The show - which is currently in the top spot on the streaming platform - is based on the true story of comedian Richard Gadd, who found himself in a terrifying situation when he was relentlessly harassed by a stalker. Check out the official trailer here:

The seven-part Netflix drama focuses on the writer and performer's warped relationship with a middle-aged woman named Martha (played by Jessica Gunning), who becomes his stalker after they meet at the pub in which he works.

Now, there's been a bunch of praise for the miniseries but it's clear there's also lot of buzz surrounding one particularly 'chilling' subtle detail found in every email shown in the series.

Without spoiling anything, the show sees Martha somehow get ahold of Richard's contact info - starting her avalanche of increasingly-worrying messages sent day and night all of which end in the words 'sent from my iPhone'.

Ahead of the doc, Richard - who also starred as his character in the show - spoke to Netflix about the reality of what happened to him, explaining: "Stalking on television tends to be very sexed-up.

"It has a mystique, it’s somebody in a dark alley way. It’s somebody who’s really sexy, who’s very normal, but then they go strange bit by bit.

"But stalking is a mental illness. I really wanted to show the layers of stalking with a human quality I hadn’t seen on television before."

He also revealed just how many times his stalker tried to communicate with him.

"41,071 emails, 350 hours of voicemail, 744 tweets, 46 Facebook messages, four fake Facebook accounts, 106 pages of letters and one cup of tea," he added.

And it's clear the whole 'Sent from my iPhone' detail has not gone unnoticed, with many viewers rushing to social media to share their reactions to it.

One X user penned: "Is anyone watching Baby Reindeer? I’m losing my mind at how she types 'Sent from my iPhone' at the end of every email but isn’t actually emailing from an iPhone.

"I know that’s not like a big deal on scale with everything else she’s doing but????"

A second chimed in: "Martha’s typos in 'sent from my iphone' in Baby Reindeer got me every time."

"The craziest thing about Baby Reindeer is that she types 'sent from my iPhone' on a laptop," quipped a third while a fourth said: "The 'sent from my iPhone' or just 'iphon' on every email Martha sent in every email in Baby Reindeer shouldn’t be so funny."

And a fifth echoed: "Baby Reindeer is so disturbing but the fact Martha makes the effort to type 'sent from iPhone' every time she emails gets me."

"It’s so camp and hilarious to me that Martha from Baby Reindeer went to the effort of typing 'Sent from my iPhone' on every stalker email she sent despite the fact she didn’t have an iPhone," added another.

Baby Reindeer is currently available to stream on Netflix.
