Sue Barker on 'A Question of Sport' Axing

Sue Barker, former host of the iconic quiz show 'A Question of Sport,' is in early talks for a potential reunion tour with her co-stars Matt Dawson and Phil Tufnell. The BBC cancelled the show in 2023 due to 'funding challenges,' and Barker expressed disappointment that future athletes won't experience it. Despite being 'amazingly tempted,' Barker confirmed she would not return to host the show if it were revived, stating it was the right decision for both her and the program. Barker, who hosted the show from 1997 to 2021, has fond memories and maintains a strong bond with her co-hosts through a WhatsApp group. The potential tour, planned for 2025, aims to bring back the camaraderie and fun the trio shared on-screen.
