The Traitors fans are all saying the same thing about Linda after she turned on the waterworks at breakfast during Friday’s show.
The 70-year-old retired opera singer was selected to be a Traitor at the beginning of the programme and has been putting on quite the performance since.
She began sobbing during breakfast after it was revealed that Livi had been murdered by the Traitors, in an attempt to escape suspicion and make herself seem like a Faithful.
However, her dramatic ‘BAFTA-winning’ moment did not seem to work in her favour and has instead left even more people questioning her.
But, despite it not being as effective as she had hoped, fans of the BBC show still can’t get enough of Linda’s ‘iconic’ acting skills and rushed to X to comment on the hilarious moment.
They wrote: ‘If our linda doesn’t win a BAFTA for best actress in a leading role there’ll be hell to pay #TheTraitors.’

Later in the episode, Linda’s ‘cinematic’ display came back to her haunt her and was brought up at the Round Table.
Her fellow players found it odd that she was crying over someone they thought she wasn’t very close to.
But, after a clever diversion and more convincing tears from her fellow traitor Minah, Faithful Dan actually ended up being banished instead after he lied about his tactics during the day’s challenge.
It comes after The Traitors villain from last series, Paul Gorton, revealed Linda’s ‘great moment’ which he said may have secured her victory in the BBC game show.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun on behalf of Freebets, Paul, 37, said: ‘There was a great moment when Kas went.
‘The camera pans on them and it goes to the person that’s about to say whether they’re a Faithful or a Traitor, Linda’s got hold of the girl’s hand that’s sat next to her.
‘She’s got hold of Libby’s hand and I’m looking and I’m going, ‘God, everyone round that table…’ Because you’re not really supposed to touch or hold hands.’
He then explained that you are not supposed to touch people so that would show that she had some sort of bond which would indicate that she is a faithful.

Fans of The Traitors crowned Linda as their early favourite after just the first episode on New Year’s Day.
Linda became one of the first Traitors chosen during this year’s game, and fans were quick to throw their support behind the unlikely villain.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, some fans lauded Linda’s attempts to go undetected among the Faithfuls, with one branding her the ‘Meryl Streep of the Scottish Highlands.’
However, after a slight blunder ahead of the first round table, some shared their fears that she could be the first to be banished from the castle, with the first episode ending mere seconds before the votes were revealed.
After host Claudia Winkleman secretly chose her first three Traitors, Linda visibly reacted to the presenter when she said the title out loud.
It was a move noticed by several Faithfuls, and was soon brought up at the round table, leading others to question her loyalties.
Posts from viewers on X included: ‘Linda’s reaction to when Claudia said the word ”Traitor” is like when I say ”walkies” to my dogs
‘Linda actually deserves to go. How are you giving yourself away before you’ve even had a chance to play.
‘These #Traitors won’t last long at all. Linda already on her way and Armani going full Paul will see her follow suut. Season could be over within a few weeks.
