The scene where he reveals to the entire audience about not only his past, but his insecurities, his fears, and what still haunts him what so entrancing. The fact that there is no sly cut or break to ease the tension makes it even better, you are forced to watch. When he was building up to revealing he was raped, I wasn't sure if he was going to make it obvious, but no, he makes sure the entire audience knows he's been raped, and that's he's also stalked, and that he lost the only meaningful relationship in his life because of what happened to him. It's the perfect payoff, and the perfect use of shock value (for once).
The acting really conveys that, Richard Gadd's performance in that scene is unfathomable, it's truly perfect. I also like to commend the audience's reaction, specifically his friends, their faces just wreak of learning your close coworker you worked with for years went through so much pain.
Another thing to note in that scene, is that Martha makes up very little of it, just shows how most of his pain was derived from other things. I don't think anything could top this scene for a long time, Richard Gadd is amazing.
