Whatever, Linda is a Canadian web series co-created and co-written by Hannah Cheesman and Julian De Zotti.[1] The series stars Cheesman as Linda Thoroughbred, a woman in the 1970s who gets a job as a secretary for financier Barney Lahnar (inspired by Bernie Madoff) and becomes the real brains behind the Ponzi scheme that will eventually bring him down.[2]
The series was released on YouTube and via an official website in 2014, but was subsequently taken down and re-uploaded to Vimeo.[3] Though the series has struggled to find an audience online,[4] it has screened at festivals internationally, winning critical acclaim and numerous awards.[5][6][7][8]
