Access was a British entertainment news television programme created by Channel 5 that aired on the channel and its sister networks 5Select, 5Star, 5USA and Paramount Network.[2] It was wholly unrelated to the American entertainment news programme Access Hollywood.

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] The theme music for Access was written by UK production company Noise Fusion.[4] Outside the traditional half-hour version, shorter segments were used as interstital filler between programmes on the sister networks of Channel 5.

In 2021, the programme was replaced with Entertainment News on 5, which features a similar format.[5]
