BBC Strictly fans complain of sound issues as Meghan and Harry's wedding cellist performs

Strictly Come Dancing fans complained about sound issues as they sat down to a performance from guest performers Sheku Kanneh-Mason and Zak Abel. British cellist Sheku won the 2016 BBC Young Musician award and he played at the wedding of Prince Harry to Meghan Markle on May 19 2018.

As the pair performed their single Same Boat on the Strictly results show, viewers took to Twitter to say they couldn't hear properly. @PaulWirral vented: "Awful sound output by the BBC..." and @flowersxxx asked: "Whats wrong with the sound?"

@jrocksy grumbled: "I almost fell asleep there, bit quiet that song." and @orangina17 shouted: "TURN IT UP." @charlotte482 tweeted: "Bearly hear a word he's singing."

@gildashaz commented: "I'm starting 2 worry about my hearing." @missstevie said: "This sounds like it would be a good song if I could hear it properly!"

Sheku Kanneh-Mason and Zak Abel were joined on stage by professional dancers Amy Dowden and Nikita Kuzmin (BBC)

But@MRabess said: "That tune was awesome. Loved it." And @houjousatoko_ wrote: "The crowd not cheering for once is such a breeze, it's so rude when they interrupt the singing performance."
