I think 5 presenters were fine as Comic Relief traditionally changes presenters every 60-90 minutes - it was the fact they were primarily presenters (and Paddy and Joel tick that box ahead of comedian now too) that was the problem, plus it just being an autocue fest which meant it felt unnecessary.
Even had they not gone till 2am I think just having an extra slot after the news through to midnight would have made the difference to make it feel a bit more of an event.
