“Tomato”潘昱达第一次演如此吃重的角色，不会借力的他，跟阿哥李南星演对手戏，竟然真的把他摔倒。
他笑说：“我不会控制情绪，要痛哭，就真的哭；要打李南星就真的扑过去…”
他尴尬地说，也不了解自己的力度到哪里，导演说“action”，他就飞扑过去，跟阿哥在地上翻滚。
“完全控制不了，哈哈，后来，南星大哥就complain（投诉）我不知道吃了什么奶粉。”
对自己错手真打，他笑谓很过意不去：“南星大哥是前辈，我是看他的戏长大的。”
爸妈更是阿哥的粉丝，特别叮嘱儿子千万要记得多拍几张阿哥回来。
问他跟李南星一起滚地，可有受伤？
他直言：“没有，很好玩。是南星年纪大，受不了。”
他说，跟阿哥演戏会很紧张，因为，是爸妈的偶像；跟“公主”瑞恩就不同：“瑞恩很体谅我们这些小演员，会配合我们。”

在马来西亚拍《正义武馆》的陈邦鋆被瑞恩拿枪矛对准“命根子”，因为担心若有闪失会影响下半身“性”福，导致这一场动作戏NG。
“因为是拍我的镜头，枪矛由武指拿着，并指着我的敏感部位，我必须劈腿跳跃，然后飞降时用双脚夹住枪矛把它折断。如果有意外或飞降时位置不对，就会被插到。因为我害怕，所以动作做得不好，被武指喊。”
瑞恩撞到胸部
瑞恩在开拍的第一个月，有一场吊钢线的戏，因为飞降时特技没有“抓”到她，“害”她撞到墙板。
她后来胸部作痛，回新加坡照了X-光，所幸无碍。另一次，她则在跳跃时扭伤脚，看了两次中医，还扎针放血。
她在剧中饰演陈邦鋆的妹妹。瑞恩最近与张耀栋发生“炒作风波”，问他事件是否影响两人的合作？陈邦鋆说：“其实我不知道发生了什鬼事。不过我和瑞恩之前合作过《最火搭档》，我们的合作没有问题，也互相信任。而且我的感情线是和蔡琦慧发生。”

预览2012年上半年的6部9点档电视剧的女主角，欧萱（中）、瑞恩（左）和白薇秀（右）就占了5部，当家花旦的宝座，非她们莫属。（图／档案照）
2008年半年，新传媒7点档和9点档出现七公主“再循环”，接力演的情况，可谓“7公主全盛期”。但随着谢宛谕在2009年辞演超级大戏《当我们同在一起》后，随即引起一发不可收拾的公主出走风，走了姚懿珊、陈靓瑄和刘子绚，仅留下“公主”欧萱、瑞恩和白薇秀“留守电视山”。
预览2012年上半年的6部9点档电视剧的女主角，欧萱、瑞恩和白薇秀就占了5部，当家花旦的宝座，非她们莫属。
新传媒高层陈国明认为，“现代的花旦虽没有要求有‘一笑江山覆’的本事，但无论在姿色、气质或才情方面，她们都是出类拔萃，举手投足间都是夺目的风华”，要能成为一部剧里的注目焦点。
他说：“我觉得欧萱就是姿色代表香香公主（《书剑恩仇录》）、瑞恩是气质代表任盈盈（《笑傲江湖》），还有白薇秀的就是才情代表黄蓉（《射雕英雄传》）。”
若以人气指数、收视保证、受捧程度以、曝光及产量来评定“花旦”，三女其实不遑相让。然而，若以参与超级大制作的次数来看，今年“消失”本地电视的欧萱却独占鳌头。
反观，瑞恩与重头剧无缘，但过去两年已奠定收视女王的地位，小刀锯大树杀出血路。紧握收视王牌的她当然是“最后收视保证”的花旦。
周颖 郭惠雯 等待时机？
2008年到2011年的4部超级大制作中（《小》、《当》、《破》、《星》），周颖和郭惠雯其实都各参与两部，借由备受关注的重头剧增加人气和观众缘。
但，2012年上半年的6部9点档电视剧中，周颖和郭惠雯仍无法独当一面。三大花旦中，欧萱将出演《995》和《我爱狐狸精》，瑞恩有《最火搭档2》和《花样人间》各包两部，白薇秀则确定参与《再见单人床》，2012年想必仍是三大花旦的年。
不过，新传媒高层陈国明受询认为，周颖和蔡琦慧游走花旦边缘，只要碰到好作品，就有机会上位。周颖明年将演出《最》2，蔡琦慧则将与瑞恩齐名，以女主角身份演出7点档《正义武馆》。

1. BOOS & BRAVOS Page 112
BRAVO to the kiss-ass car chase scene in On the Fringe (weekdays, Ch 8). The three-minute sequence, which saw a sleek black Mercedes in a high-speed pursuit that climaxed in a fiery explosion, provided some much-needed excitement to the predictable drama about an ex-con (Li Nanxing) struggling to stay clean but ends up working for a queen bee of a triad (Fann Wong is too porcelain-looking to be a bad-ass, but that’s another story for another time). Moral of the story: When the tough gets boring, wreck a Mercedes to spice things up. Michael Bay would’ve approved.

Comedy, drama, or action series, the drama addicts at xinmsn list down sequels and spinoffs of TV series we’ll love to watch!
Text: Joanna Goh
As fellow TV addicts, we lamented at a list of never-ending possibilities to shows like Little Nyonya, The Family Court, and Unriddle. And because we’re such astute couch potatoes and suckers for well-written, logical and relevant TV shows today, you can’t blame us for wanting more.
And while it may seem like we’re milking them for all it’s worth, we know you feel the same way too!
Unriddle
Action, a dash of suspense, thriller, and the addition of tough cookie cop babe Rui En (Xiao Man), explained for the series’ good reception during its run last year. Human-trafficking, kidnapping, murder, psychics, and family secrets – the show’s got it all. The series went with a bang, ended on a high and concluded its main story arc. That’s not just it, a hint of suspense and new unresolved riddles at the end hinted at a sequel investigative series for Xiao Man and gang, hurrah! Production for Unriddle 2 will begin in late 2011 so expect to see it on the gogglebox in 2012.
PSST: We heard that the old cast will come together again for more mystery-solving actions with new additions like Elvin Ng, Yuan Shuai and Adam Chen. In specific, Elvin’s character will be giving Xiao Man a run for her detective skills as her arch-enemy. Sounds exciting? We can’t wait too!

MediaCorp Channel 8 revealed Thursday on their official blog that a sequel to the police thriller “Unriddle”, one of the channel’s top rated dramas of 2010, will air in March next year as part of Channel 8’s 2012 drama line-up.
Some members of the original cast, like Rui En, Chen Li Ping and Tay Ping Hui will return in “Unriddle 2”.
The drama will also feature some fresh faces like Elvin Ng, Romeo Tan and Zhou Ying.
Star-studded commemorative drama
Apart from other titles like the comedy “Double Bonus” which stars Zoe Tay and Joanne Peh’s “Pillow Talk”, a drama dealing with marriage issues, Channel 8’s 2012 lineup also features a massive star-studded drama to commemorate 30 years of Channel 8 drama productions.
The drama, titled “Joys of Life”, is touted as containing “more stars than you can ever count” and is scheduled to air in June.
Chew Chor Meng, Rui En along with a mystery Taiwan idol will star in the show, which will also feature a host of past and present celebrities as well as some aspiring stars.
“Joys of Life” will bring audiences on a journey to 60s and 70s, to experience what life was like when mobile getais were all the rage and when societal norms and values were very different from what they are today.

Did I imagine it, was it an 80s thing, or was the old On The Fringe more electric and romantic?
Definitely, the 1988 Channel 8 classic was more focused on its subject of Singaporean juvenile delinquents than the new On The Fringe, which toggles between teenage drama and gangland thriller.
Much has changed in more than two decades, admittedly: hairdos, fashions, habits.
The Centrepoint Kids have made way for the Facebook generation.
But teen crime hasn’t gone away (Google “Downtown East death”, if you have forgotten), and the reboot of On The Fringe is rather timely.
There is a new clique in the new drama, a group of good bad kids who cut classes, hack into other kids’ blogs and filch snacks, and sometimes, adult diapers for someone’s ailing grandpa.
Like I said, they’re good bad kids – as self-absorbed yet well-meaning as regular teens, though less well-behaved – and the drama has flashes of authenticity and fun whenever it is close to them, capturing the camarade-rie and and confidence of young actors such as Edwin Goh and Phua Yida.
Then there is a living, breathing flashback to the old On The Fringe. Li Nanxing, who was a bad boy in the old drama, is now the long-lost, ex-con dad of Goh’s character – and it is kind of fun, too, even when the joke is at the expense of Li’s character (he has never heard of Facebook).
The trouble with the drama is glamorous corporate gangsters (Fann Wong and Zhang Yaodong) who turn up from nowhere, really, to wage a triad turf war and drag in Li’s character.
It’s likely that they have flown in from a Hong Kong crime film, although Fann and Zhang’s accents – floating between Singapore, China and Taiwan – are so disorientating that it’s difficult to be sure.
Whatever their origins, gangsters in suits, to my untutored eye, just don’t seem native to Singapore, or to the sort of naturalistic teenage drama the new On The Fringe could have been.
Groups of men glowering at one another at funerals, fights at steamboat restaurants: Why does the drama dish up warmed-over bits of foreign crime films, when it can tell a Singapore story?

June: More Stars Than You Can Ever Count In “Joys of Life”!
Mobile performances were famous back in the 60s and 70s Singapore famous which helped groomed many local singers. Back then, visiting the cinemas were a favorite past time for many. Besides foreign films, one could enjoy local Malay and dialect films. In 1963, black and white televisions were introduced into homes which completely changed people’s viewing habits and lifestyles. The 80s and 90s saw yet another breakthrough in the local entertainment scene. Mobile Getais picked up and so did the popularity of radio. These two important eras can be considered the fruits of labour sowed from the seeds planted in the 50s and 60s. The 60s was an era where values such as friendship and loyalty mattered most. It was unforgettable how people went out of their way to help one another. Unfortunately, as the era faded, so did people’s values…
“Joys of Life” takes on the nostalgic feel of the 60s and 70s, and reveals the secrets behind the glitz and glamour of the entertainment scene. Baby boomers will be delighted to see familiar faces as “Sakura” and “Ling Yun”, “Wang Sha” and “Ye Feng”, “Zhuang Xue Fang”, “Huang Qing Yuan” on screen, reigniting their memories of the past. Artistes who starred in the previous dramas “Wok of Life” and “Springs of Life” will also take on significant roles in “Joys of Life”, together with MediaCorp’s veteran, established and aspiring artistes. The production team also hopes to invite former artistes back onscreen as guest stars in this drama in this mega 30th drama anniversary blockbuster drama.
The main cast includes Chew Chor Meng who returns onscreen as a movie poster illustrator cum storyteller, Rui En as “Mulan” and we heard that the production team intends to invite a popular idol from Taiwan to be cast as the wacky male lead. “Joys of Life” also include Chen Li Ping, Zheng Ge Ping, Yvonne Lim, Zhang Yao Dong, Romeo Tan, Huang Wen Yong, Lin Mei Jiao, Andie Chen, Kate Pang, Yao Wen Long, Pan Ling Ling, Patricia Mok, etc to commemorate 30 years of drama celebrations on Channel 8!
6月：花样人间 《戏剧情牵30重头剧》
60、70年代的新加坡，游艺场歌台行业最热门，造就了许多本土艺人；到电影院观赏电影是国人最爱的视听娱乐，除了外国电影，也可看到独具本土色彩的马来片、厦语片等；1963年黑白电视走入家庭，改变了人们的作息习惯；从讲古人到广播的广为传唱，也风靡了不少听众。到了8、90年代，本地电视和电影业发展到另一个新起点；七月流动歌台、广播更是再上一层楼。这两个大时代可以说说娱乐文化的分水岭，也可以说5、60年代播下的娱乐种子，得以在今日开花结果…… 此外，60年代也是个充满真善美的淳朴年代，老师打了学生，家长亲自上门道谢，送鸡蛋送蔬菜；浓浓的人情味，一家子有事，左邻右舍一呼百应帮忙。但隋着时代变迁，很多不适宜的东西被淘汰了，许多优良美德也跟着消失，譬如邻居之间的凝聚精神、尊师重道、对父母长辈的孝顺、朋友间的情义、对爱情的不舍不弃。这些都值得人们去深思、去探讨……
《花样人间》以风趣欢快的手法，反映6、70年代的娱乐大环境，艺人的精神面貌，成名前后的秘辛。剧中亦会杜撰一些观众看似耳熟能详的人物，如樱花和凌云、王沙和野峰、厦语片皇后庄雪芳、歌迷王子黄清元，活灵活现的出现荧光幕上，增添亲切感和可看性。此外，前两个人间系列的演员也会在剧中担任要角，届时新传媒老中青演员将会倾巢而出，继《福满人间》与《春到人间》后再度重现《人间系列》热热闹闹的群体生活和当代人们乐观、不屈不挠的积极精神。也希望邀请到迁居外地与退居幕后等消失荧光幕已旧的艺人客串要角。。。一起为8频道打造《戏剧情牵30周年》大制作。
主要角色：周初明重出江湖演绎电影海报画家、业余在桥头讲古的有情有义师父、瑞恩的‘花木兰’、据知剧组将邀请台湾当红偶像出演鬼马男主角。其他艺人包括陈莉萍、郑各评、林湘萍、张耀栋、陈罗密欧、黄文永、林梅娇、陈邦鋆、庞蕾馨、姚玟隆、潘玲玲、莫小玲等等，众星云集贺戏剧30！
