Tonight's Conservative Party leadership debate between Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak was halted after presenter Kate McCann fainted during the live broadcast.
Ms Truss held her hands to her face and said "oh my God" after a loud crash was heard - and then the contest was taken off air.
TalkTV said Ms McCann is "fine" but that the channel had been given medical advice not to continue.
"We apologise to our viewers and listeners," it added in a statement.
As the debate was halted a message on TalkTV and The Sun's stream read: "We're sorry for the disruption to this programme."

To me the process they are going through shows a lack of leadership.

More distraction from the economic disaster caused by massive COVID spending.

Faint or just pass out from boredom? It is a Tory debate after all.

Fainting so hard you can hurt yourself is a stated side effect of the Pfizer injection per BioNTech’s SEC filing.

They’re both so boring even the presenter couldn’t remain conscious.
