By the way, Channel 5 (along with My5) will be rebranding to just "5" on the 12th of March, so is there any indication on this end of the channel being renamed from "Channel 5" to "5" on the TV guide? Just want to make sure in advance!

Usually when channel rebrandings like this that take place we don't see anything in advance as it will all change on the day in question.
