Presenter Matt tried his best to cover up the technical issue as he improvised and began speaking to the audience while a member of the crew appeared on-screen to try and sort out Rob's microphone disaster.
The BBC host then warned viewers: "Nobody look that way". Some viewers then took to social media to discuss the on-air disaster as one wrote: "I absolutely LOVE when things like this happen on live tv. Matt handled it like a pro because I couldn't hear a thing."
