===Peter Sissons=== {{multiple image |align = right |direction = vertical |image1 = Barbican Silk Street - geograph.org.uk - 978.jpg |width1 = 250 |caption1 = [[The Barbican Centre]] }} After Day retired, [[Peter Sissons]] took over and continued until 1993. The BBC decided to widen the programme's appeal by moving it around the country. The programme also changed its London location from the Greenwood Theatre to the [[Barbican Centre]]. Sissons' tenure as ''Question Time'' chair included three different editors. There were several problems during filming, including a bomb scare during a live recording, which resulted in the programme being taken off the air, and the death of an audience member who collapsed while recording.<ref name="Sissons 2012">{{cite book|last=Sissons|first=Peter|title=When One Door Closes|year=2012|publisher=Biteback|isbn=978-1-84954-075-9}}</ref> The programme continued to enjoy good ratings during this period, notably on the day of [[Margaret Thatcher]]'s resignation on 22 November 1990, which featured two different panels over two editions.<ref name="Sissons 2012"/>
