History

Access was previously two different shows, 5* Access and a show about Hollywood, but the two were combined to create the new format of Access in 2015.[3]

In 2021, the programme was replaced with Entertainment News on 5, a similar show to Access but with branding similar to Channel 5's own branding.[4]

Format

Access features news and gossip about showbiz, celebrities, pop culture, and also information and trailers for movies.[5][6] Access airs throughout the day starting from 9am each day, it is the first programme to air on 5USA & 5Select. It can run from 5 minutes or alternatively, 30 minutes in some occasions. The theme music for Access was written by UK production company Noise Fusion.[7]
