Refreshed C5 News Readies For Launch
ViacomCBS-owned UK network Channel 5’s refreshed 60-minute news programme has set its launch date, kicking off in just two weeks’ time with a new-look set. Rather than two 30-minute blocks as is the current state of play, the programme will run from 5pm-6pm each weeknight and be hosted by Sian Williams and Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije. The move had to be greenlit by UK regulator Ofcom and makes space for C5 to air lengthier news investigations and popular rebooted quiz format Eggheads at 6.30pm.
