I assume there’s an Ofcom reason why it has to be separate.

I don’t think all this phone-in cheapo TV is an attempt to cut-back on news. C5 seems to struggle to fill some of its early evening schedule  if anything. Finding something for 1730-1800 would just create another headache, plus the 5pm does OK for them and has been grown its share marginally according to Dan Walker’s recent tweets.

They don't seem to be finding breakout hits at 4pm or 6pm.    Practically not slots they could put a Vine style show in from the same studio as the news though.   


This sort of thing though is where presentation is absolutely key though to differentiate them.

I don't think they expect a breakout hit at 4pm or 6pm.
