Linda Flint is a fictional character in the television series Little Britain. She is portrayed by David Walliams. Linda is a university counsellor (and lecturer) who is approached regularly by students when they need assistance with aspects of their course, such as essay due dates, or more personal matters, such as ill family members. Linda pleasantly tries to help, but her solution is always to refer them to another (unseen) university staff member called Martin, whom she contacts via phone while the student waits.
