LEGENDARY BBC panel show A Question of Sport has been axed after more than 50 years. Famous team captains included ex-England rugby legend Matt Dawson, former cricketer Phil Tufnell and ex-Scots footballer Ally McCoist. But in September 2020, it was announced Barker, then 66, would be replaced as host by Paddy McGuinness. Ex-Team GB hockey star and Morning Live presenter Sam Quek, and ex-rugby international Ugo Monye replaced captains Dawson and Tufnell. Speaking to BBC Breakfast last year, the presenter described the corporation's handling of her departure as "insulting".
