One fan took ill and collapsed live on TV.
The individual was watching on in the Winter Gardens as BBC presenter Abigail Davis interviewed two female snooker players – Daisy May Oliver and Hannah Jones.
Cameras caught the moment the spectator fell ill, collapsing in a crowd of other snooker fans.
BBC host Hazel Irvine later shared an update confirming the fan was feeling better after receiving a glass of water.
She said: “A gentleman feinted, he’s absolutely fine.
“Just a wee bit dehydrated. He’s now been given a very large glass of water and an ice cream.
“Everything is A-OK.”
The incident occurred before the third and fourth quarter-finals took place.
