RexHolly Willoughby is refusing to take part in a programme about the plot to kidnap and murder her[/caption]
PAHolly was targeted by obsessed security guard Gavin Plumb, who was jailed for at least 16 years[/caption]
The mum of three’s ordeal led to her quitting her presenting role on ITV1’s This Morning and taking a break from telly altogether.
An insider said: “Holly isn’t involved in the documentary at all, but producers are ploughing ahead in making it regardless.
“They know it’ll be a ratings hit to detail the gory specifics of the case.
“She declined to be interviewed by producers about the ordeal and her reps informed Channel 5 she wasn’t technically stalked so their title is incorrect.
“There is also concern that the events will be sensationally dramatised for effect.
“It’s an awkward move, as it’s not their story to tell.
“It will bring back a lot of the horrendous memories for entertainment purposes when she’s just trying to move on with her life.”
Plumb, 37, from Harlow in Essex, was caught by cops after revealing his plot in an online chatroom. He was jailed for at least 16 years last July.
Channel 5 and Holly declined to comment.
