situation comedy at the turf club...
Just about a month ago, I had given up a role which required me to play a racing jockey at the Singapore Turf Club...
But apparently Fate (or rather the casting folks of Mediacorp) has decided to give me another chance, and this time on slightly better terms...
So yesterday I found myself at the Singapore Turf Club for the filming of my 2nd sitcom appearance this year, and from the photos below, you could possibly easily guess what show that would be...
And here are the pics...

Although we had a rather long lunch break (due to the very far out location), we actually under-ran and wrapped more than an hour ahead of schedule!
That's all thanks to the speedy and very humourous director, the chirpy assistant directors, the steady cast, and the efficient crew...
I had a great time doing this shoot, and it was fun working again with Adrian after 13 years since "Kampong Amber"!
Andrea was really sweet and friendly as well, and has absolutely no diva-esque airs about her. Not to mention she's really stunningly gorgeous in person!
I didn't get to speak with Liu Qianyi, whose scenes were done before mine so he could leave earlier...
Neither did I get to chat much with Fiona except briefly in between scenes, and she too left as soon as her scenes were done. Those expecting photos of her will have to buy this week's 8 Days magazine...
Anyway, the only regret I had during this shoot was that there were no horses involved and I didn't get to ride any... LOL
Last but not least, this episode is likely to air at the end of this year or the very start of the next year, so do keep an eye out for it then!
