===Background===
'''Channel 5''' is a privately-owned TV channel from the UK, being considered the fifth terrestrial channel in the country. Through its years, it had different owners; in 2002, it was rebranded as "'''Five'''" once the RTL Group bought the channel; then reverted to its original name after it was taken over by the publishing house Northern & Shell. Its current owner, [[Paramount Global]], bought the channel in 2014.
