Channel 5 airs a wide variety of programming that covers various genres and themes, with programmes about farming, trains and royalty being popular.
The channel is notable for its travel and holiday shows, whether presented by comedians such as Susan Calman and Alexander Armstrong or whether they are programmes in a fly-on-the-wall reality format like Allo Allo! Brits in France or the Bargain Loving Brits... series. The channel has also become associated with a number of people and programmes from Yorkshire with shows including Jane McDonald, The Yorkshire Vet's Julian Norton and shepherdess Amanda Owen, (the latter two also contributing to episodes of This Week on the Farm, filmed at Cannon Hall Farm in South Yorkshire).
Channel 5 is also notable for securing the rights to Home and Away in 2001, which helped boost early evening viewing figures for the channel, and acquiring Neighbours from the BBC after a bidding war with other broadcasters. However, where once imported drama made up a large part of its schedule, Channel 5 has increased the number of titles released under the banner of Channel 5 Original Dramas, with The Drowning and a new version of All Creatures Great and Small bringing in more than 4 million viewers to the channel, making it one of Channel 5's biggest hits of Autumn 2021 along with Our Yorkshire Farm and The Madame Blanc Mysteries (all with audiences of over 2.5 million viewers).
