A Question of Sport and tennis legend Sue Barker has been a much-demanded Strictly Come Dancing contestant ever since the series began on the BBC back in 2004. Sadly, the presenter has never taken up the offer, and she revealed on The One Show that she’s unlikely to change her mind any time soon after a chaotic encounter with Anton Du Beke.
Wimbledon presenter Sue realised ballroom dancing wasn’t for her after dancing with Anton on A Question of Sport.
On Monday’s edition of The One Show, Sue chatted with Alex Jones and Jermaine Jenas about her potential Strictly prospects.
Alex probed her: “Strictly; I thought that you would be the perfect candidate.
“So, would it be a ‘Yes’? Has it been a ‘No’ in the past?”

Despite turning down offers to appear on the show, Sue has remained an ardent Strictly fan and confirmed she tuned in for the new series over the weekend.
“But I loved it at the weekend,” she told Alex and Jermaine. “They were so good, weren’t they?”
Alex agreed: “They were so good, and also it starts the build-up to Christmas!”
Remembering her own time on the series, she added: “I can watch now, as a viewer. I’ve forgotten I even did it!”
This year’s Strictly season features The One Show’s own Richie Anderson dancing with Giovanni Pernice, who are currently in the middle of the leaderboard with a respectable 23.
