His co-host Holly Willoughby added: "We were trying to fix it during the break, putting cables together, but we couldn't find it.
"I'm all plugged in, but you're probably not even hearing this."
Unamused viewers complained guests appearing on virtual calls "sounded like like they were in a toilet".

Another said: "Sound issue on vid calls is unbearable having to turn the volume completely down! Maybe don’t run the call segments."
Phil updated viewers 50 minutes into the show saying they were getting to the bottom of the technical issues.
"Apparently it's a faulty embedder," he said.
"It was embedded but it might have slipped out. Once that's done everything should be OK."
