Following Netflix's Baby Reindeer lawsuit, the BBC is experiencing a surge in duty of care compliance questions from factual drama producers to prevent similar crises. The broadcaster is assisting producers with inquiries for sensitive projects like the Lockerbie bombing and Chloe Ayling's abduction, while working on other productions like the Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe story. The scandal involving the alleged stalker in Richard Gadd's 'true story' has led to increased awareness of duty of care issues, with Netflix being sued for defamation and negligence.
