'You have to respect his warrior mentality but there are levels to this game, and on June 6, I will show him, and everyone watching on Channel 5, why I am world class.

Keep scrolling to find out what the fans had to say fan fury Faking It fans brand reboot a 'fix' as classic show returns to telly after 19 years FAKING It fans have branded the show's reboot a 'fix' - as it returns after 19 years. The premise sees a brave volunteer dropped into a completely alien world and given just four weeks - and help from a handful of mentors - to master a new skill and convince a panel of experts that they are the real deal. Advertisement 4 Faking It has returned to screens after almost two decades Credit: Channel 5 4 Estate agent Rex swapped properties for northern markets 4 He had to convince a trio of market inspectors that he was the real deal Credit: Channel 5 Channel 5's reboot kicked off with Surrey luxury estate agent Rex swap properties for northern street markets. Working gruelling 10-hour shifts, viewers watched Rex struggle to keep up, blend in and sound like a proper northerner. However, he managed to convince two out of three market inspectors that he was a proper northern market trader. Only one of the trio said: "There was something a little not quite there for me with the butcher. He was almost convincing!" Advertisement The others, however, felt he was genuine when he went up against a real-life baker, florist and dog treat seller. Taking to X, some viewers branded the series a "fix" as they questioned the plausibility of not sussing out Rex as the phony. One wrote: "Im calling B******t that two out the three didnt know Rex was #FakingIt." Another penned: "I'm watching the judges pretending not to know which the fake guy was. #FakingIt." Advertisement Wheeler dealer and TV personality Tom Skinner was on hand to help coach Rex through the experience. Although he initially criticised the newcomer's slow start, stall display and lack of sales pitches. Channel 5 'to reboot' iconic reality series after nearly two decades off air Tom said: "To me, it looks like a warehouse storeroom doesn't it... your store should look like Harrods. You've got to make as much as the space you've got, yeah?" After Rex forgot everything Tom told him about pitching, the former Apprentice star said: "Mate, I have no heard you once talk about your stock to anyone. Advertisement "You need to be a walking advert. When they walk past... bring them in." Rex's confidence grew, however, following a crash course from a dialect coach, as well as the ultimate test of hosting a pub quiz using his new northern twang.

There James settles into his new life and even finds love with local farmer's daughter Helen (Rachel Shenton). The Ex-Wife - New parents Tasha (Céline Buckens) and Jack (Tom Misson) seem to have the perfect life, but the constant presence of Jack's overly friendly but suspicious ex-wife Jen (Janet Montgomery) puts pressure on the couple. But as the series progresses it becomes less clear who the bad guy really is and how far everyone will go to get the life they think they deserve.

Channel 5 viewers blast ‘confusing' name rebrand
The major UK television network Channel 5 has rebranded – again – simply as '5'. This will mark the third rebrand since the channel's launch in 1997, beginning as Channel 5, then changing to Five, then returning to Channel 5. The channel is now stripping back its title simply to the numerical form across linear TV and its streaming service (previously known as My5) in an attempt to unify the two platforms. The new logo, which sees a yellow number five on a blue background, will be used by the channel from Wednesday (12th March). The decision to change its name was initially announced in August last year, with Channel 5 boss Ben Frow saying: 'We know from the success that so many of our Channel 5 shows have had on Netflix that there's a huge appetite for our content in the streaming world.' Frow continued: 'As we relaunch as 5, our streaming service will be a much bigger and broader offer than My5 with a significantly expanded range of content including new series and box sets in reality, drama, factual and kids from across the Paramount family.' However, viewers have been left perplexed by yet another name change to a linear TV channel, following the rebrand of Dave to U&Dave in July 2024. TV writer Scott Bryan posted on X/Twitter: 'Is everyone OK?' before pointing out how ITV has gone between the titles ITV and ITV1, and that UK Gold has gone from UKTV GOLD, to G.O.L.D, back to Gold and to U&GOLD since it was launched in 1992. 'I genuinely endeavour to understand what possible difference this could make to anything?' said one person on X/Twitter. One person joked: 'Disappointed they never tried Chnnl5 really missed an opportunity there!' 'Let's face it, we'll still call it Channel 5,' added another person. 'A bit like still calling this platform Twitter, or "X (formally Twitter)" because single alphanumeric names just don't make sense!' A third viewer bemoaned: 'All their streaming thing is now 5. Which is s*** and confusing to explain to others.' Another person remarked that Channel 4 has also gone several rebrands in recent years, since it has repeatedly switched the name of its on-demand service from 4oD to All4 to simply Channel 4. 'Channel 4 now meaning both the channel and the website which everyone still just calls All4 or 4OD deserves a place on the list,' they said. Channel 5 – or should we say 5 – airs shows including Eggheads, All Creatures Great and Small, The Au Pair, Bargain Loving Brits in the Sun and it is the UK home for the Australian soap Home and Away. Neighbours was previously aired on Channel 5 until it was cancelled in 2022 and revived by Amazon.
