....and a new weather girl only recently started? Does the latter work for Five, rather than Sky....
I assume they're using Nazaneen Ghaffar. She's a Sky News employee.

Noo Five! Please don't add more celebrity style news! You already have a lot of it, and isn't that what LFSF is for?!
Five News really has gone downhill since the re-launch back in 2008. It always seems like they're rushing to get the programme over and done with. Back then they used to have their own separate news website and they used to bother with it. It's just pointless now.
Richard Desmond likely to have to pay BSkyB-owned service to end five-year contract early
Sky News confirmed today it is in talks with Channel 5 about ending its five-year contract to supply the broadcaster's news bulletins before it expires in 2012.
Particularly liked (well didn't like to be more accurate) the line relating to Desmond's partner suggesting that Kate and Jayne should wear shorter skirts on Live at Studio Five... We're on our way to Italian TV I suspect...
Five is increasingly an irrelevance as a terrestrial channel - without US imports, and the odd decent reality show (The Hotel Inspector sticks out like a sore thumb as a decent show) it would be nowhere. The only area it does commendably well is in co-prodicing new original programmes for younger children.

The Hotel Inspector must be the only programme I've watched on Five over the last few years. I think the question is can it attract high enough ratings to produce decent programming of its own? Anyone know what its programme and marketing budgets are like?

The Wright Stuff is one of the better daytime programmes, it'll be interesting to see what the new Vanessa Feltz programme is like, especially as it's being recorded the afternoon before (and she'll be up very early every day for 2 live radio shows)
ITN do a good job of showbiz reporting for ITV as part of their contract to provide 60 second entertainment bulletins for ITV's digital channels and of course London Tonight relies heavily on showbiz output.
Maybe the format for the new look Five News would be similar to London Tonight?
