ITV branded 'out of order' by 'disappointed' Capital's Summertime Ball viewers
Capital's Summertime Ball returned to ITV once again with Mariah Carey, Benson Boone and Will Smith all part of the star-studded line-up but ITV viewers were left unimpressed
Capital's Summertime Ball 2025 viewers were left impressed with ITV's coverage of the concert.
The annual gig returned to Wembley Stadium earlier this month and was broadcast to the nation on Sunday (June 22) afternoon.
Mariah Carey, Will Smith, Jade, Benson Boone and Jessie J were just a few names on the star-studded line-up alongside the likes of JLS, McFly, Busted and UK's Eurovision entry Remember Monday.
However, viewers watching at home were left fuming at the "missing" acts from the 90-minute long highlights show.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: "Why didn't they show Busted vs McFly but they showed Jessie J and Mariah Carey? Piss poor #CapitalSTB."
Another added: "What's the point in summertime ball being on tv when they've missed off half the acts? McFly, Busted, Lola Young, Zara Larson, James Hype, Remember Monday all missing #summertimenall #CapitalSTB."
A third person said: #CapitalSTB #itv1 why you not showing #Mcfly very disappointing they should of been shown its out of order."
A fourth social media user said: "#capitalsummertimeball i was waiting to watch Mcfly on # itv but there not showing them why im annoyed with that."
ITV has been showing highlights from the concert at Wembley Stadium each summer for the last few years. It usually comes a week or so after the event itself takes place.
The programme was hosted once again by Capital Breakfast hosts Jordan North, Chris Stark and Sian Welby who spoke to some of the performers before they took to the stage to perform to the crowd.
Speaking about his move from Radio 1 to Capital last year, Jordan said: ""Oh, honestly, they have been the best people to work for.
"It was definitely the right decision. It's been just over 12 months and it has been the best year of my life.
""It's been so good, we've interviewed absolute megastars.
"And what's lovely now is friends and family and people that have come over to Capital have said, 'Oh, you really suit the station. It's like you've been there for years.'
"And that is the biggest compliment."

Homes Under the Hammer star admits 'I have failed' in sad announcement
Homes Under the Hammer star admits 'I have failed' in sad announcement Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts has been facing huge setbacks on his new project. Homes Under the Hammer presenter Martin Roberts confessed to a crushing defeat in his latest endeavour, stating he has "failed on every single level". He is currently attempting to transform a rural Welsh pub, the Hendrewen Hotel in the Rhondda Valley, into a tourist attraction. However, two years into the project, the building remains in a dire state, with the rear of the property crumbling. Initially, Martin estimated the renovation would take two years and £500,000 to complete, but he has since faced numerous setbacks with the eight-bedroom property. In an interview with The Sun, the 61-year-old explained: "I'm still smiling but, oh my word, what a challenge it's been."

He believes he is approximately 60% of the way through the renovation, and is hopeful that the final stages will progress quickly, with the aim of opening the property by next Easter. However, the star is currently navigating the complexities of planning permissions due to the risk of flooding in the area, reports the Express. The BBC star has brought a pub in Wales (Image: BBC ) Martin described the numerous hurdles he is facing, stating there are "lots of hoops to jump through". When he first purchased the property, it was in a state of disrepair, with "cock-eyed" walls, "every single window falling down", and bats nesting in the leaky roof. Notably, Martin did not even inform his wife Kirsty that he had bought the derelict pub while he was recovering from a heart operation in Wales. The pub will be the focus of a ten-part ITV documentary series next year, titled Oops! I Bought A Pub. The star's renovation journey will features in a ITV documentary series (Image: BBC ) Taking inspiration from Jeremy Clarkson, there are plans to suspend a Rolls-Royce upside down from the ceiling in the dining room, mirroring Jeremy's pub The Farmer's Dog which has a chrome tractor suspended from its roof. The establishment's eight bedrooms will be available for guests, each named after TV shows and designed with a unique feel. There are also plans for a new bar and restaurant within the property. The pub aims to employ around 30 local individuals, and will feature a teaching kitchen where celebrity chefs can impart their knowledge to the younger generation. Additionally, it will include a stage area for aspiring musicians to showcase their talent. Article continues below Homes Under the Hammer is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
