Lewis Capaldi 'told off by BBC' for swearing through his Radio 1 Big Weekend set as he brings the festival to a close

Lewis Capaldi couldn't stop swearing while performing at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend in Dundee, Scotland on Sunday.

The 26-year-old singer delighted fans during his headline show as he sang some of his most-loved tracks. However, the BBC reportedly told the musician off for the amount of swearing in between songs.

The music festival took place in Camperdown Park in Dundee, Scotland with over 80,000 music fans attending the three-day festival over the late May bank holiday weekend. Lewis previously said about the news that he was performing: “I'm very excited to be playing in Dundee for Big Weekend, I never managed to get tickets last time so I'm very excited to be able to come along and enjoy it as well as playing.”
