Also in the Daily Star, TV critic Mike Ward is continuing to recommend the pick of British television to his readers, a selection which invariably seems to include a large number of Channel Five shows of late. Today, four of the seven programmes Ward picks in his "What's Hot to Watch Today" column are shown on the channel. Neighbours (1.45pm and 5.30pm) and Home and Away (2.15pm) are essential viewing, of course, and so too are the Mentalist (9pm) and Grey's Anatomy (11pm). Given this level of sustained critical acclaim, it might not be long before Five takes a leaf out of the pages of "Britain's most successful newspaper" and rebrands itself as "Britain's most successful channel".
