I’m so sorry to hear that you didn’t get a chance to view this before Tudou deleted it -- I’ll check around and see if I’m able to locate it elsewhere (if I find it, will definitely let you know). <br /><br />The Felix Wong/Barbara Yung version of LOTCH is my all-time favorite version of the adaptation as well, so of course, when I happened to stumble upon this ‘gem’ of a reunion show, I was definitely very excited. I’m sure my ‘play by play’ summary doesn’t do justice to the actual show itself, but hopefully it helps give a little bit of idea.<br /><br />Edit….you got lucky…looks like someone uploaded the full version of the show onto Youku as well. Here’s the link:<br /><br />http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjcxNTA1OTc2.html<br />llwy12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02401832364832078932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-42773113027871862782013-11-17T09:11:47.605-08:002013-11-17T09:11:47.605-08:00OMG, I'm so sad I missed this.

I can picture it all in my head.

Actually, they did a pretty good job with the martial arts sequences in the 80s. But then again, that's when they had all the 'big name' martial arts coordinators (i.e. Ching Siu Dong) and producers, writers, etc. It's no surprise that the 80s was the decade in which TVB released the most ancient / martial arts series.<br /><br />In terms of Sharon -- no, she actually didn't mention too much outside of what I recapped in my post. That's why I was a little bit disappointed in that I was hoping to hear more from her onscreen (cuz I know she had alot of interaction with the other cast members backstage)...ah well -- I guess there's always Weibo!llwy12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02401832364832078932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-4518217724362955302011-06-09T05:57:09.223-07:002011-06-09T05:57:09.223-07:00@llwy12: Oh yeah, his sweet, child-like tone (or s...@llwy12: Oh yeah, his sweet, child-like tone (or something like that) when he was trying to get something. I love those scenes. He's just like a kid and funny that he and Wong Yung were getting into those deals at times. Man, talking about this makes me want to go re-watch again. <br /><br />On the side note, I was talking to my mom and my sister about this, I realize a lot more of people are missing. BUT I guess we'll have to take what is there and how they did the best to organize already. <br /><br />Wong Wan Choi and stunts - Yeah, I guess so since I remember watching it that only some scenes seen to show obvious signs of stunt doubles but the others were like mostly them? It was funny that most of the cast won't be able to beat Sharon outside though. <br /><br />Getting side-track, but talking about Sharon, did she mention other things? Aside from her studio? Just wondering. AND I need to stalk on Weibo for her now.DTLCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02412002838777406732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-7083328353354253802011-06-08T21:09:09.395-07:002011-06-08T21:09:09.395-07:00@DTLCT: LOL! Glad you found the time to catch up,...@DTLCT: LOL! Glad you found the time to catch up, as there was definitely alot of great stuff in the show!<br /><br />Hmmm...I actually don't remember "Being Rich" so not sure -- but to my recollection, she rarely played leads -- most of her roles were supporting or less than that....but she has stayed with TVB all these years it seems, as she has been in at least 1 series (if not more) almost every year since the 80s...<br /><br />Haha...I think Wong Wan Choi was kidding about the stunt double thing -- I mean, they probably did use stunt doubles for some scenes, but not all of them. I think what he meant was that unlike Sharon, the other actors didn't know how to do martial arts in real life, so if you ask them do those moves now, they most likely wouldn't be able to.<br /><br />Yup, true -- that's why I tried not to be too hard on the hosts either -- plus thinking about it now, I think that some of the stuff they said was probably scripted and they probably did know what the answer was, but still had to ask the question because the audiences may not know or because they had to create a lively atmosphere, since that's their jobs as hosts.<br /><br />Hahahaha....that's true! I forgot about the sworn brothers thing -- that WAS his specialty after all! HEHE....but it was so funny seeing him 'become' Chow Bak Tong when talking to the little girl -- it reminded me of those scenes in the series when he would take on a soft tone with Wong Yung because he wanted a favor from her.

I can't believe I had to back-read since ...OMG! I can't believe I had to back-read since miss so much good stuffs here. Glad found time to catch up anyway. <br /><br />Chan On Ying was one of the main leads in 'Being Rich', can't believe that she's being tossed aside so soon later. (Not sure since I don't watch every TVB series, but it's a shame...) <br /><br />Back to LOTCH - Wong Wan Choi had to use stunt doubles for all his moves back then? Like seriously? I meant I know they had to use stunt doubles at one point or another for safety - among other things, BUT like every? <br /><br />Anyway, I think some of us don't know all the details so can't really fault the host for making the comments. I'm glad to know about it now too or get some sort of recap. <br /><br />Maybe the girl wants to be sworn brothers with Chow Bak Tong more? JUST KIDDING...(He loves to pull those, remember with Kwok Jing and then YG later?)DTLCThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02412002838777406732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-65121748853672067582011-06-04T01:16:19.318-07:002011-06-04T01:16:19.318-07:00@Clair: Thanks!

Yes, d...@Clair: Thanks! Hope you enjoy the posts!<br /><br />Yes, definitely agree that Chan On Ying was the best Chu Yee as well. <br /><br />Chan On Ying is still active in the TV industry -- in fact, she is still working for TVB and still films series for them now. But most of her roles have been 3rd / 4th line or less, so she pretty much only has small parts in series now.<br /><br />No problem regarding the question about Ng Wing Hung! Hopefully it was helpful!llwy12https://www.blogger.com/profile/02401832364832078932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765116522593136045.post-34084168219680609592011-06-03T13:03:04.556-07:002011-06-03T13:03:04.556-07:00Holy cow, I didn't even know about this thing....Holy cow, I didn't even know about this thing. How exciting it must have been (minus the part about Barbara Yung - she is dearly missed!). <br /><br />I agree with you on Chan On Ying being the best Sor Gu - I also think she was the best Chu Yee from Tony Leung's version of HSDS. It probably also helped that the series made her more memorable and pitiful by not bringing her character back like they did in the other versions. She had a lot of good roles in the 80's. Do you know what she's up to these days? <br /><br />And thanks for answering my question about Ng Wing Hung the other time. :DClairhttp://bluecrys.comnoreply@blogger.com
