Eilidh Barbour

In December 2019, Barbour was the presenter for the first Premier League game to be shown live on Amazon Prime Video, Crystal Palace vs. Bournemouth.

In 2017, Barbour was named as the main presenter for BBC's golf coverage, replacing Hazel Irvine, who had been a major influence on her career. Barbour's father had always played golf, and she started to take the sport up in her teenage years, around the same time when her mother wanted to learn as well. Incidentally, she had also written to Irvine for career advice. In December 2018 Barbour joined the presenting team for Match of the Day 2 when she stood in for regular host, Mark Chapman. In June 2019 she was part of the BBC presenter team for the Women's World Cup hosting, among others, the quarter final between Germany and Sweden.

In November 2014, Barbour came to national attention, when she was a pitchside reporter during a first round FA Cup match in a special episode of Final Score. From 2016 onwards, she has been a regular reporter for Final Score. Also in 2016, she filled in for Dan Walker as presenter for Football Focus, who was in Rio de Janeiro covering the Olympics. The following year, she became the presenter of The Women's Football Show.

In 2005, Barbour graduated from the University of Stirling, having read Film and Media Studies, with an emphasis on audio and video production. She then moved to South Korea for a year to teach English, before returning to Scotland with the intention of finding a job within broadcasting. Her persistence paid off, as six months later, she got a job with STV, primarily editing their football and rugby highlights. She later took various reporting jobs, before becoming the presenter of STV Rugby for the 2011–12 season, which focused on the Scottish rugby teams in the Pro12. Barbour has occasionally presented the results and international highlights on BBC Scotland's Sportscene.
