The Traitors’ star Linda may have made a ‘massive blunder’ that could see her time on the show cut short. Bookmakers are suggesting that the 70 year old’s stint on the programme is nearing its end.
Her downfall could be due to her handwriting. As one of the remaining Traitors on the show, Linda was given the task of writing the names of four other contestants on a painting in the Scottish Castle’s bar to nominate them for elimination in a game known as the ‘death match’.
Anna, Fozia, Leon and Andrew were all chosen by Linda and her co-conspirator Minah to participate in the game, which involves them attempting to secure a ‘life card’ to stay in the game, swapping cards amongst themselves until their final hand determines their fate. Fozia and Leon are the last two players standing with a 50% chance of being eliminated in Wednesday night’s (15 January) episode.
However, sharp-eyed viewers have pointed out that a unique style of handwriting could be enough for her fellow contestants to instantly identify Linda as a definite Traitor, reports Birmingham Live.
One fan posted on X: “Will anyone notice that the handwriting on painting is Linda’s? Particularly the way she writes z in Fozia. Why didn’t she try to disguise it! “.
Another viewer remarked: “Who could have possibly written fozia’s name on the painting #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK.” A third concurred: “Linda’s handwriting is a dead giveaway, especially that “z”! “.
And a fourth chimed in: “Linda doing the same handwriting as she did in the round table for Fozia.”
Linda has already raised eyebrows among some of the players, especially after her dramatic response to Live Deane’s departure. Linda was seen breaking down in tears as she prepared for what she called the ‘performance of my life’, stating that she had been very close to the star.
However, Livi’s close friend Leanne and others on the show immediately questioned this, finding Linda’s theatrics suspicious, particularly as she had claimed to be ’emotionless’ just the night before.
The Traitors continues on BBC One on Wednesday, January 15 at 9pm. Two more episodes will follow on Thursday and Friday
