Also in Channel 5's official confirmation of the deal it is only a two year contract mentioned - http://www.channel5.com/articles/big...s-to-channel-5

It was on March 31st before the official announcement

Nowhere does it say anything about 2 years and optional 3 years

Channel 5 won't want it after next year, they're only using it to get a new audience watching C5. They have zero commitment to it and long term viewer interest just isn't there anymore
Media Guardian announced the deal before C5, they had inside info:
