The improper cross-examination during the voir dire was a substantial irregularity that could have influenced the trial judge's assessment of voluntariness; because it is impossible to say the judge would have admitted the confession absent that irregularity and the confession could have seriously influenced the jury, the court could not apply the proviso and must allow the appeal and order a retrial.
