If you are one of the few people on the planet who hasn't watched the Netflix show, 'Baby Reindeer' it was written and created by Richard Gadd and brings his own life story to screen as his character Donny is intensely stalked by Jessica’s character, Martha. It’s one of the best TV shows not just of the year but ever, as it goes from comical to heartbreaking in just a few seconds.
But this is no overnight success, today on the podcast Jessica shares the lessons learnt from her 17 year-long career which started with one of my favourite movies of all time, 'Pride' and most recently the BBC comedy 'The Outlaws' where she plays the one-line comedian, parole officer Dianne.
Just like 'Baby Reindeer' this is a special episode with all the emotions, as for the very first time Jessica talks about coming out at 36 - despite missing some key signs - and the freedom it has given her in her life.
As we start Pride Month, no matter how you identify or how you are currently feeling about your identity, Jessica’s story will inspire you to embrace yourself and celebrate YOU.

I love her and am eternally grateful for“Baby Reindeer” on so many levels, but discovering Jessica is most definitely at the top of the list!!!
❤️👍🏻💪🏻
I’m in the US, and it’s been hard finding all of her work, but the hunt continues…🤞🏻
Absolutely ❤❤❤
fr!
I'm upset this only has 6,000 views. She's an incredible actress and this was an amazing interview.
Some people get like 172 views, so it's not bad.
@@norijean3279 Actually it kind of is considering how huge Baby Reindeer is.
Also a pointless interview unless you're a super fan
Oh my god, I loved this interview so much. I'm in awe of this lady and the interviewer was so warm and appropriate and easygoing. I love how she goes from having an emotional moment to making fun of herself for watcing The L Word. She's a gem
She’s phenomenal
Wow this was great! You asked just the right questions i got so entertained it felt like i was really there just having a chat with friends. Jessica is Great and yayy proud of her for coming out!!
This is the kindest thing to say - so happy you loved the interview and if you want to hear more from Jessica make sure you check out the full chat on the podcast too! You can listen here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 Josh x
What an amazing talent, would love to see more of her
What a lovely down to earth funny girl Jessica is 😊😊😊 I come out as a lesbian in November 2009 I lost family friends and workmates I practically had to start again at 32 it's shit but it is what it is 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ I was over the moon when I found out Jessica was a lesbian I'm so proud of her for being her true self god I'd love to be her future wife 🤞🏻🏳️🌈🤞🏻🏳️🌈🤞🏻🏳️🌈 haha 🤣🤣🤣
You sound like Martha 😭
Amazing actress I really want to see her much more. Fabulous beautiful lady
She doesn't need to explain her sexuality to us. That's her own private business. Doesn't take away the fact she's super talented.
Exactly 💯
Representation matters. If she wants to share this part of herself, it might help someone else’s journey. I find that admirable. Agree that she is super talented :)
It’s her decision, not your’s.
@@TMoney76 That was my point 🙄
@@Jozy6264 you should’ve worded
It better then 🥱
Congrats on your journey!!
Welcome to the fam!
🍾🥂🎈🎇🎊🎉
I love her! Emmy next!
Also that wonderful and honest conversation about self love was absolutely lovely to listen in on. Thank you!
Thank you so much -that really means a lot! If you want more, make sure you check out the podcast too! Josh x
Her range of acting is also amazing. She is laugh out loud funny in the outlaws.
she’s amazing
It was a real honour to be there to hear her story, she is so amazing. If you want more from Jessica make sure you check out the full chat on my podcast, Reign here: hyperurl.co/i4yxt0 and hope you love it! Let me know what you think! Josh x
I have such a crush on her😩
Me too, I kept thinking, what is it about her. Now I know what it was about her.
She's very interesting (I'm not gay, but I can tell)
Knewwwww my spidey (pridey?) senses were tingling
@@alicestbrt Your senses are 100% correct, now I feel bad for every time a lesbian approached me saying I was giving of lesbian vibes and I flat out denied it. Even if a person denies it, and you pick up something, you could be right!
Yes, watching The L Word would be a pretty good clue. 😂❤ What an incredible actor. ❤
I love her in 'The Outlaws'. Such an amazing & underrated show!
Jessica is great in "The Outlaws" which is an amazing show with a great cast. And she is literally brilliant in "Baby Reindeer". She was perfectly cast.
Hopefully she gets tons of offers, she's great
Wonderful interview!
I watched Baby Reindeer a few days after it dropped on Netflix & half way through the first episode... The scene in the cafe.. I was well & truly hooked. Had to watch it all in the same night!
Jessica deserves all of the accolades for this! One of the single best performances I have seen in a long time. I find her just gorgeous as well & she seems like such a nice & friendly person. ❤
I havent even seen this show but I enjoy listening to her and her accent so i clicked 😆
She’s the best actress. I actually felt relieved to hear her talking like a normal person after the way the show ended. I felt so sorry for her at the end and now I feel better. 🎉
Brave lady and an amazing actress, great interview!
Jessica Gunning was off the charts amazing in her depiction of Martha in Baby Reindeer. What a talent she is! I see many shiny industry awards coming her way for her outstanding acting abilities.
I love that she played an ally in Pride and now she’s accepting her own gayness. She’s a great actor!
I’m subscribed ❤why because Josh you gave her a hug
You’re such a gentle soul a kind human
I've watched seasons 1 and 2 of The Outlaws and not once did I realise she was the community officer in the show. Great actress.
She’s one of the best actresses out there these days. Hope to see her in more roles.
she's so talented and wonderful. deserves all the success coming her way.
Funny that she says she got a friend to make her look older. So, what you might think. That friend won an Oscar for Best make-up & hairstyling for the film Poor Things. 😂
She's sooooo amazing I have no words! Love from Norway!
She seems like such a LOVELY person, I would love to sit and have a chat with her.
We love you Jess ❤️
Just love Jessica! INCREDIBLE actor. And seems to be an incredible person.
She deserves an Oscar!!!!!
Amazing actress and brilliant show

Sent from my iphone
As if she could get any cooler. Love her!
I feel so badly that Jessica gott mixed up in all this mess. I wish her all the success.
Sorry, millions of men in love with her, you stand no chance 😚😉💕💕💕
Why does this matter at all
A lot of big girls do
Who.cares.
I don’t care - no one knew who she was a few weeks ago.
Okay...
Cared enough to comment though. 😋
@Erin.C.G and to have clicked on this video and watched at least some of it if not all...
@@RobertBoyle11 💯
If she is truly a lesbian, then why was she stalking a man? I’m not buying it.
She's the actor who played the role of the stalker.
@@user-xv3bl4xl6t seriously? I thought it was a documentary with a team following them around for years.
@@TMoney76😅😅😅😅
@user-xv3bl4xl6t you missed the joke 😅
Who cares?
everybody who supports her. Stay triggered
Everyone's gay now who actually cares anymore.
Ignorant statement
Really? That was a HUGE shock…🤣🕺😂😂🤠🤠🥱
I don't think you could tell that she was gay at all
