Updates! Updates!
Sorry for my brief 'hiatus'. Been away from this site for two days since it's holiday season - taking my much needed break!
First, here's an on set interview clip with the cast of [The Changing Times], featuring Raymond Lam, Damien Lau and Joe Ma. Clip credit to Fung Forever and Triumph2004.

Some updates on Charmaine and related TVB Anniversary news. (Honestly, with all the 'cooking' going on by the tabloids, I feel sick reading the entertainment news these days.)
Charmaine is Relaxed about Rumours
[Ta Kung Pao & The Sun 25/10/06]
Charmaine Sheh took part in an interview at Cha Siu Yan's show on CRHK yesterday and spoke about the approaching TVB Anniversary Awards and all the gossip that has been stirred up around her battle for the Best Actress award against Myolie Wu. There have been reports recently that TVB is totally supporting Myolie and turning against Charmaine and the most recent reports suggest that she has been banging the desks and cursing the TVB executives for giving the award to Myolie. Asked about all the gossip, Myolie replied with a relaxed attitude and smiled: "The whole company against me? That is quite powerful, but I did not read the details so I am not sure."
Charmaine says it is no surprise that the press has been firing at her as a result of the contest between her and Myolie, but she adds graciously: "In my mind, Myolie, Ada Choi and Sheren Tang all have a good chance." As for the desk-banging, Charmaine asks in response: "Has the award already been presented? Why would I be so extreme?" As for the suggestion that TVB will try to keep everything sweet by introducing a new special award so they have one each, Charmaine says she does not know about a secret award, so she questions the truth behind the reports. However, Charmaine knows that the company does change its awards structure every year. So which award would she most like to win? Charmaine says that as long as she wins an award, she will be happy.
Sneak Preview to Anniversary Plans
[The Sun 24/10/06]
The annual TVB Anniversary Extravaganza will take place on 19th November and many of the acts for the night have already been confirmed. These include a special edition of "Beautiful Cooking", featuring the TVB 'Big Sisters' Liza Wang, Carol Cheng and Nancy Sit cooking some very expensive abalone, ginseng, sharks fin and fish stomach. Some leading males and females will join together for a 'celebrity parade' with the hosts and some human waxworks of classical figures. There will also be a singing showdown between the artistes in "All About Men vs Lady in Red".
The MC's for the night have been comfirmed as Eric Tsang, Nat Chan, Carol Cheng, Liza Wang, Amigo chui and Anna Yau. As she is still recovering in hospital, Lydia Shum will be absent this year. Eric will be dressing as a woman to dance with the handsome males and experience for himself how hard it is to be a woman.

p.s. I will be posting some news translation tomorrow. In fact there are plenty but I'm just plain annoyed with the crappy reporters.
I have also added 3 new trailers of Glittering Days. Joel Chan look really cute, though I think he will be paired up with Maria Chan in the new series.
15/16 TVB Anniversary special clips coming up.
