Her voice was a very familiar one, We never appreciate people until they're gone

Anne Bird-Hannigan, March 2006

I was dumbstruck and truly upset to learn of Linda's death. I grew to love her dry wit and delivery and loved the fact that she sounded like people I know, though far more amusing. My heartfelt condolences to her family

Patricia Clare, March 2006

So sad to hear of the news. Linda was so great on the News Quiz. A big loss to radio comedy.

Andrew Brabrook, March 2006

A jewel has fallen from the crown of Radio 4 and British entertainment.

Jonathan Farber, March 2006

I was so sad to hear of Linda's death and that we'll no longer be able to listen to her wonderful humour. Whenever I heard she was a panellist on the News Quiz I always knew we were in for a joyous thirty minutes.

Maryn Bishop, March 2006

So sad to hear about Linda's death on the radio yesterday. She made me laugh. I admired her for her wit and intelligence. My thoughts are with her partner and family for the difficult months ahead. Thank you Linda for making me laugh

I am absolutely bereft. She was one of the funniest and wittiest people on radio. I loved that she wasn't in all those daft celebrity magazines. She was like a fabulous secret. What a huge loss.

Sandra Yarwood, March 2006

Really quite gutted. Will miss her lots.
