Don’t let BBC show Sue Barker red card from A Question of Sport – Yorkshire Post Letters

I WAS so sorry to read we will lose Sue Barker, Matt Dawson and Phil Tufnell from A Question of Sport, one of the most entertaining happy, and funny, programmes the BBC has ever put on (The Yorkshire Post, September 14).

But, of course, this is the nature of things to come. I dread to think who will replace them but I could hazard a guess.

Also, radio is to lose the wonderful Don Black on late Sunday evening who plays us real music, not all the other useless stuff we have to put up with. A worthy follower to the late David Jacobs.

I have long given up on Radio 2 – the noise and inane chatter puts me off. Radio Tees is far better.

BY dispensing with the old 
guard on A Question of Sport, seeking to refresh the programme and attract new younger viewers, the BBC 
have created themselves a problem.

In today’s atmosphere of diversity, political correctness, adherence to the whim of 
the “woke”, it will be very interesting to see who they choose to replace Sue Barker and Co.
