I guess the theory was that Corden worked on A League of Their Own.

That was more Sky’s version of They Think It’s All Over though. A Question of Sport whilst humorous was never comedy led.

Another channel might pick it up. If Eggheads gets poached, then anything is possible.

Eggheads situation is different, it’s a format from an independent production company produced by an independent production company. I also think it was probably sweetener to Jeremy Vine.

A Question of Sport is produced by an independent now, but I’m sure the BBC still own the format rights. That said I can’t see there would be anything stopping BBC Studios selling the rights. I think it’s more the point, it’s not a popular enough show at the moment to gain interest.
