I notice Channel 5 seems to be airing a lot of Irish imports of late, including an RTE drama Love/Hate and TV3's Animal A&E and I remember seeing a documentary about travelors in the schedules that was set in Ireland recently.
Can't be a coincidence that Ben Frow formerlly of TV3 is now director of programmes. Makes sense really, because some of these shows could have easily been commissioned in Britain, whilst these wont seem foreign to the audience.
I think the only 5 News update now is just before 9pm, though perhaps they have an extra one in the middle of films if they're later - or something like Access Hollywood - though tonight's airing seems a bit random.
ITV2/3/4 have random showbiz news updates in the middle of films too so presumably this allows them to air extra ads by effectively airing the film as two parts - though that's a loophole OFCOM should close really.
Decent enough from what I've seen so far. Shame they didn't let the team who created the package design the logo, which looks just as wonky on screen as anticipated (though aided by the removal of "Channel").
