Sky News at Five (formerly Live at Five) and Sky News at Six are the title 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 show currently runs until 7pm, although the 6-7pm hour is branded Sky News at Six. The show was branded Live at Five until a change in branding policy was introduced by Sky News Executives on Monday 11th April 2011, when the majority of Sky News output was rebranded, simply Sky News
