Live at Five (Sky News programme)
Sky News at Five (formerly Live at Five) and Sky News at Six are the titles of Sky News' authoritative hour-long evening news round-ups, beginning at 5pm and 6pm, British time.
Format
Since the channel's revamp on 24 October 2005, the slot has been anchored by Jeremy Thompson on weekdays and Andrew Wilson on weekends, providing a round-up of all the day's events and coverage of any late-breaking news. The programme currently runs until 7pm, although the 6-7pm hour is branded Sky News at Six.
