The sound issues affected Danny Tetley's performance, prompting calls for him to sing again
The X Factor has cancelled its public vote after the show was hit by sound issues on Saturday night.
Viewers complained that the judges and some of the performances sounded distorted and contestants sounded like "Daleks".
ITV apologised and said the vote will take place on Sunday's show instead.
It is thought to be the first time voting has been cancelled in the singing show's 15-year history.
Viewers started to encounter sound issues during the performance by Danny Tetley and continued through Anthony Russell's song.
A message appeared on screen which read: "We are sorry for the temporary interference in sound."
At the end of the programme, another message said: "Due to a technical issue, tonight's vote has been cancelled. It will open in tomorrow night's show."
The show was not live and had been pre-recorded on Saturday afternoon, so host Dermot O'Leary did not refer to the sound problems.
On social media, viewers called for ITV to call off the voting.
