Her co-stars Charlene White, Sunetra Sarker, Brenda Edwards and Kéllé Bryan all gasped in shock as Linda put her hand over her mouth.

She said: “Are you live on air?”

Charlene then said: “Apologies. I’d like to apologise for Linda’s language. She knows that she’s done wrong. I think Linda has forgotten that we are live on air.

“Linda would you like to continue?”

Linda then continued with her competition segment.

At the end, Charlene once again apologised to viewers.

Viewers watching were equally stunned and flocked to Twitter to share their amusement.

One person said on Twitter: “Omg nanny Linda saying the F word live on Loose Women. Absolutely hilarious!”

Another wrote: “Haha!!! Linda Robson dropping the F-BOMB live on air!”

A third added: “Omg I can’t stop laughing at Linda Robson!!”

Another defended Linda, writing: “Ffs don’t tell me people are offended by Linda saying [bleep].”

ITV to face Ofcom?

Meanwhile, others predicted some people will complain to TV watchdog Ofcom about Linda’s potty mouth.

One tweeted: “Ofcom’s gonna be busy with complaints not because of what Linda said.”

Another wrote: “The offended complaining to Ofcom as we speak.”

However, some people didn’t see the funny side to Linda’s slip-up.

Another commented: “The language out of Linda is disgusting on day time TV when my grandson was watching.”
