The standout star of the third series of The Traitors UK has undoubtedly been Linda Rands, a 70-year-old opera singer whose charisma and theatrical flair have captured the hearts of viewers across the nation. Adored by fans and affectionately labeled as "mother," "icon," and queen, Linda's stint on the show has been nothing short of legendary. Her dramatic flair, combined with her witty one-liners and apparent lack of any traditional game strategy, have made her a memorable figure in the series.
The public's fascination with Linda's time on the show is evident in the way she has been immortalized in memes and social media posts. In a light-hearted nod to her captivating performances, a humorous Oscars-style billboard was even erected in Leicester Square, awarding her a "Golden Cloak" for her exceptional "performance of a lifetime."

Alas, Linda's journey has reached its end. As she was banished from the castle, fans mourned the loss of one of the show's most entertaining contestants. In tribute to Linda, we have compiled some of her most camp and unforgettable moments from her time on The Traitors.
"Sorry"
During one tense roundtable session, fellow contestant Anna found herself under scrutiny for allegedly failing to properly secure a boat during a task. The group suspected her of being a traitor trying to sabotage their efforts. Linda, in her signature sassy style, cast her vote for Anna, quipping, "You don’t need to be a sailor to know how to tie a rope, sorry." This memorable line, delivered with unmatched sass, has become an instant classic among fans.
"Who the HELL is not gonna come BACK???"
In one dramatic breakfast scene, the faithfuls waited anxiously to discover who had been eliminated overnight. In a performance reminiscent of a high school drama student tackling Shakespeare, Linda exclaimed, "Who the HELL is not gonna come BACK???" Her over-the-top delivery, despite knowing the answer, added a level of drama that only she could provide.
"She’s my little girl" *cries*
One of Linda's most theatrical moments came after she had strategically eliminated her fellow contestant Liv. During her confessional interview, Linda vowed to give the performance of her life to deflect suspicion. As the faithfuls realized Liv's absence, Linda burst into tears, dramatically sobbing, "She’s my little girl!" The scene was a blend of genuine emotion and theatrical flair that left the group in shock.
"Get over it"
In an intense face-to-face confrontation, Linda and Minah informed Fozia of her elimination. Fozia, suspecting Linda's betrayal, warned her, "You’re not going to last. Get a good night’s sleep tonight because you’re going tomorrow." Linda's sharp retort, "Get over it," as she walked away, was delivered with a camp confidence that solidified her as a fan favorite.
Linda's journey on The Traitors UK may have concluded, but her legacy lives on. Her unique blend of drama, humor, and resilience has left an indelible mark on the series. Fans can continue to follow the unfolding drama on The Traitors UK, airing tonight at 9pm on BBC One.
