Ugo Monye talks 'pressures' on him over Question of Sport role amid controversial shake-up
BBC’s Question of Sport, which he inherited in September 2021.The former Strictly star, 38, has teamed up with Boots UK for the second series of the health and wellbeing podcast Taboo Talk, where he discusses the topic of chronic pain with host Vogue Williams. In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, Ugo addressed the taboo topic of both physical and mental pain in the sporting world, addressing the challenges he faced on the pitch, alongside pressures he tackled whilst under the spotlight. Ugo is a former rugby union player, who has since worked as a sports pundit, before joining BBC’s Question of Sport late last year. When asked about what kind of pressure being in the public eye for so long put on his mental health, he replied: “It's interesting, isn't it? The word pressure?“Yeah, I did some high profile things last year, but I guess from the outside people say it's a lot of pressure. “I think it's a real privilege to have done the things that I've done,” Ugo admitted.“Being a captain on A Question of Sport and Strictly, the largest show on telly, comes with its pressures, but they’re privileges because the alternative is that you don't do them -  and I'd rather do them. “I think whenever I do anything, my number one goal is that I want to give the best account of myself. “And when you're on shows like that, on Question of Sport as a team captain, I want to be able to offer up the best version of myself every single time for the guests that are there.”Ugo became a team captain on Question of Sport back in September alongside ex-hockey champion Sam Quek.The new team came in to replace Matt Dawson, Phil Tufnell, and longtime host Sue Barker, who exited the show as the BBC attempted a new format shake-up.Ugo and Sam
