YMMV / A Question of Sport

• Memetic Mutation: After this show and Top Gear, both helmed by Paddy McGuinness, were indefinitely shelved by the BBC within weeks of each other, a number of Brits began cracking jokes about how everything McGuinness appears in gets cancelled, and suggesting what he should appear in next.
• They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: General consensus is that the show's quality declined massively after Sue Barker left and Paddy McGuinness replaced her, and this was borne out in the show's viewing figures, which slipped from 4-5 million during Barker's tenure to less than a million during the final season. This ultimately let to the show being shelved in 2023.
