As long as you stick to around the same time, an hour or two will not make a difference.
As for missing 5 days.. It depends on what part of the cycle you were on as to what you do with them.. Were they active pills or placebo pills?

Well im on the 21 pills and and I missed 4 of the active pills and one of the placebo (the red side) I got my periods and started again when your suppose to get ur periods

Well if you already got your period.. Throw the pills away and start your new pack when you are supposed to. Make sure you have protected sex though for the next few weeks because you probably aren't fully protected from the pills since you missed so many active pills.

You missed 5 pills in a month !!!!!! That is sooo scary!!! You could have easily become pregnant. The thing with birth control pills is that you do not only have to take one a day, you have to take 21 in 21 days. As soon as you realize that you've missed a pill you must take them missed pill (or pills), even if you miss 2 in a row, take both missed at the same time. I think for you the patch or the ring might be a better option, you're simply not protected if you miss that many pills.

it doestn have to be exact to the minute. I take mine evermorning between 7 and 8. On w.E.S it may be a little later. If you missed 5 pills in a row you need to use back up and then start new pack. Check with your doctor too for advice. I wouldtn throw away the pills keep them aside if you ever drop a pill and cant find it.. You will have them as backup to take.

My doctor said to take my pills within 3 hours of each other. He said that taking them at exactally one time would be excellent, but you will still be protected if you take them within 3 hours.

If I know i'm going out and wont be able to take my pill, I take it beforehand.
