The show imagines an alternate history where the Battle of Britain was lost, and the UK became occupied by the Nazis.
While the series boasts an impressive cast including Sam Riley and Kate Bosworth, it seems some weren’t able to hear what they were saying.
One viewer pleaded with the BBC to ‘sort the sound out’ and said it was ‘muffled’, while another said it was a ‘mumblefest’
Some were quick to make jokes about the low volume of the dialogue in the show
Others suggested that those with sound problems should get a better set of TV speakers – as viewers resorted to subtitles
While SS-GB features a similar premise to Amazon’s adaptation of The Man in the High Castle, the show’s creators have been keen to delineate the two.

“I would make a distinction from The Man in the High Castle, which is more sci-fi and less close to what happened,” says producer Robert Wade.
“In SS-GB, the British are living through the Occupation. The game is still not over. History is alive – and that’s what’s particularly clever about this story.”
The show continues on Sunday nights.
BBC One, 9pm
