Linda Perkins



Linda Perkins (played by Jill Greenacre) is a pool attendant at Whitbury New Town Leisure Centre. Linda teaches and trains people in different sports.

Enthusiastic and hard working, Linda has a deep admiration for Brittas and is willing to fulfil whatever strange or illogical tasks she is given. She has a keen awareness of ethical issues, to the point where a conflict of opinions with Tim over his planned in-centre menu results in Linda and a group of environmentally-minded friends staging an animal rights protest outside, where Tim is shut inside a small cage to prove a point. Her cheerful nature may explain why she is chosen to staff the reception desk during Carole's assertiveness training.
