It's on Fridays at 9pm on Central here...I can't believe I missed the previous 7 episodes! I caught tonight's one though...5 more to go.
It's a wonderful programme about what Singapore was like lost ago and no-so-long ago, hosted by Julian Davison and in its third season. In tonight's episode he visited several authors who had collections of paintings and photos of Singapore.
Here's the website, and they have the first 2 seasons on DVDs.

But.........it takes an ang moh to be interested enough to do a history of Singapore ah?

I'm sure he wasn't the only chap involved in the research. And given the style in which his books were written, having him front the show isn't a bad thing.Originally posted by littlestream:Wah........cool!!! I'm guilty of not being too familiar with our history.

We hardly get these sort of programmes on TV. Once in a while Discovery shows a feature or two...and before that we had just 'Hey Singapore'. -
Yeap, I did read his bio and know his background and agree he is qualified. My question wasn't so much about his credibility.
I think we are so streamlined into going into fields or education that serves the economy or money-making that we overlook into certain area of research and passion. Just my thoughts, anyways.
