I've seen a few reports on DigitalSpy about 'regular' Freesat users
having problems with their satellite receivers getting Five listings.
I'll give it a go later and see if I can get any EIT listings for Five
on my Freesat backend.

None of these channels are part of Freesat (and thus the Freesat EPG),
which is a subset of the free-to-air channels you can pick up on your
satellite. For the current list, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_channels_on_Freesat.
