Re: Sue Barker leaving "A Question of Sport"
Quote:
Quote from The Sun: Sue Barker insisted she didn't quit A Question Of Sport and was "removed" from the job by the BBC.
The former tennis player, 64, was axed from the sports quiz alongside team captains Matt Dawson and Phil Tufnell so bosses can revamp it.
But Sue - who is the face of Wimbledon for the BBC - said she wouldn't have left the show and only did because she was "removed".
"I love the show so much they would have to remove me, it would have been tough for me to walk away.
"I absolutely loved my 24 years fronting A Question Of Sport, it's been my dream job," she told the Daily Mail.
"But I understand the BBC want to take the show in a new direction and I'm sad to say goodbye."

A new direction? Obviously the existing show is insuficiently woke.
