Football fans are convinced they spotted Baby Reindeer star Richard Gadd at tonight’s Euro match between Scotland and Switzerland.
Gadd, who is a Dundee supporter, wrote the Netflix hit based on his own life and starred as the protagonist Donny Dunne, who falls victim to a campaign of stalking by Martha Scott after he served her in the pub.
A video posted on X, formerly Twitter, shows a person with a striking resemblance to Gadd reacting to the game and smiling while wearing a Scottish football shirt.
The footage was posted alongside the caption: ‘Swear I just saw Richard Gadd on the Scotland v Switzerland game?’
Many viewers of this evening’s match agreed with the video’s claim, insisting they also saw the Scot pop up on their screens.

One person wrote: ‘Richard Gadd is at the Scotland vs Switzerland football game […] he showed up on screen and I jolted up because I was like ‘baby reindeer, that you?”’
Another said: ‘Anyone see Baby Reindeer’s Richard Gadd in the Scotland Switzerland game? Or am I just tripping?’
A third said: ‘Was that Richard Gadd watching Switzerland vs Scotland?’
Scotland and Switzerland drew this evening with a score of 1-1, following a strong start from Scotland who scored the first goal.
Gadd was born in Fife and recently revealed he is a ‘lifelong Dundee fan’.
Baby Reindeer premiered on Netflix on April 11 this year and has become one of the most popular and talked about series of all time.
MailOnline has contacted Gadd’s representatives for comment.
