Rod Stewart said BBC 'made' him sing Sweet Caroline and it made him uncomfortable

Rod Stewart said the BBC 'made' him sing Sweet Caroline to finish off his Platinum Jubilee set.

The gig took place at Buckingham Palace in London this evening on a specially constructed 360 degree stage, and fans were overjoyed to see Rod performing some of his biggest hits - as well as UK anthem Sweet Caroline, as Prince George and Prince William sang along and Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall waved their flags.

Fans noticed the crooner sounded a little off key when he sang the Neil Diamond number but the rocker told the 22,000 strong crowd: "The BBC made me sing this one."
