The debate was the latest between the two contenders hoping to be the next Prime Minister, with both appearing on the BBC on Tuesday night - July 25.
In a Tweet, Talk TV said: "There has been a medical issue. It's not a security issue and the candidates are okay."
It tweeted subsequently: "Kate McCann fainted on air tonight and although she is fine, the medical advice was that we shouldn't continue with the debate. We apologise to our viewers and listeners."
