Well, there you go, that may be the answer to my query before I had even posted it!

  • Channel 5 are fiscally challenged at the moment
  • There is no slot currently available on Freeview for 5 +1
  • Channel 5 would have to launch simultaneously on terrestrial, satellite (FreeSat & Sky) and cable platforms

I'm not sure if the latter applies to Channel 5 in the same way that it might to BBC. Can anyone confirm?
