Channel 5

OK For Quicky Seeing The Top 10

Advantages: Shows top 10, and most of the number 1 video
Disadvantages: Very short clips of the top 10 videos

This short 5 minute show is on on Monday evenings at aroun 10:50PM. All it does is quickly tell you the top 10 singles, showing you a short clip of each while Dr. Fox makes a conmment. When it gets to the number one, it shows around 2 minutes of the video, which is good. Overall, this show is very simple but is still worth watching as it will only take 5 minutes of your time. It is presented by Dr. Neil Fox, who also presents the the pepsi chart ...

Review of Channel 5: Dr Fox´s Chart Update

A great music show with live performers

Advantages: great bands, nice presenter, british chart...
Disadvantages: I don't know maybe it's same like Top of the Pops

I am Finnish and this is the only British that is shown in normal Finnish tv. To watch TOPT I need cable. This show is great. It tells me British chart and it has always best guests there. And presenter has fun there which really shows, she's so full of energy and seems to love what she's doing. That programm is energetic too and artist are best. I think fans of this show are probably young people as I can't really picture old people watching it ...

Review of Channel 5: The Pepsi Chart

IT MAY PAY YOU TO WATCH THIS

Advantages: good tips
Disadvantages: none

...on wednesday nights at 7.30pm. It is hosted by Martin Lewis, a financial expert who has the website www.moneyexpert.co.uk. It is about finances and how you can perhaps cut costs. This show has been running for a while and the current show has been on for about a month now. With the current economical problems thesedays this show is a few helpful hints packed into a 30 minute show. Each show seems to have much the same format. There is usually a member ...
...it be savings, mortgages, utility bills and so on. There is usually a star on, who has to answer 3 or 4 multiple choice questions to do with finance - that part I could do without, as I don't think it brings much to the show apart from a semi famous face. The main focus on the shows over the last few weeks have been the things that many of us may have been worried about Mortgage deals ending and rates going up Utility bills going up Airlines going ...

Review of It Pays to Watch

A suitable case for treatment....

Advantages: A thoroughly mainstream approach to covering films.
Disadvantages: Some would suggest Miss porter....no comment.

...bad (the two who front Channel Four’s ‘Popworld’ are my nomination for being the worst presenters on TV) BUT not Gail Porter There are some presenters who just send out bad vibes no matter what they do, so they’re going to get hated. Pity Gail, then. The show allows the occasional gem that isn’t relevant to a movie chart and manages to show us that magnificent internet short on TV for probably it’s UK premiere ...
...Channel Five, I’ve never seen it OR heard of it’s existence). A heady and overtly familiar format where Gail is never given a chance to sit down….bizarrely, all her pieces are done standing up and with her upper torso and head in profile whilst reading from the cue-cards (others have found her to be false….I suggest because the audience doesn’t allow her to be an authoritative figure non film....her lack of ‘credentials’ ...

Review of Channel 5: The Movie Chart Show

oopsie!

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

Channel 5 was hailed to be the next ITV when it was launched so many years ago… its hard to imagine it’s gone so downhill from the yellow brick path it gave us. Promising a striped and stranded TV system (YES I DID REMEMBER THAT ONE MR C5!!!!) all it ever seems to put on the tv right now is a selection of older ITV programs, low budget rip off’s and it’s daily diet of nightly porn. Erm hold on… 10 years ago I could have used this sentence for Channel ...
