Fiona Bruce hosted the two-hour programme last night, with a live audience grilling Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Sir Keir Starmer, Sir Ed Davey and John Swinney MSP ahead of the General Election on July 4.
X user Tom replied: ‘Mixed views on whether i’m right or wrong on this, but with headphones on I am certain and this -might- be the reason?’ They then shared the clip, adding: ‘After the music sting ends, Fiona says “Ok”, listen carefully. You can hear someone whisper “f**king hate him”. Clip is exactly as broadcast.’ Plenty of other people heard the same comment whispered during the live programme, and confirmed on social media that it was still available to hear on iPlayer this morning.
