By Cheryl Lim, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 10 January 2009 1706 hrs

SINGAPORE: Fans of "The Little Nyonya" are in for a treat. MediaCorp will air a special three-minute segment closing the final chapter of the story.

The capsule will be shown at 9.55 pm on Channel 8 on January 11.

Star-crossed lovers Yue Niang and Chen Xi will meet again after their separation at the railway track.

Producers of the popular Chinese drama worked on the story just days after the finale of the series on January 5.

The script for the capsule was finalised on January 8 and filming was completed the following day.

The production of such a capsule is a first for Channel 8 and producers said it was due to overwhelming viewer response. - CNA/vm

悔 should be remorse, not hate

indeed you're right, my bad it should mean remorse or regret, not hate.

sorry for some typo and grammar slips as well. I was in the office and had to do the translation on the sly and on first-time reaction when translating.

the Theme song is not available on any CD. currently can only listen through Radio and Youtube. but you might want to know that the song is available over http://www.soundbuzz.com at $1.99 a song.

In a website where most songs are english song, this single local chinese song actaully managed to make its way into the TOP 10 download list of the site.

i downloaded the good quality full song, and the whole process took me less than 2 mins. you might want to know that the song is in .wma format.

I've got a question, the scene which Qi yu wu rescued Bai Wei xiu out from the burning house, they showed like YueNiang trapped. Did they later account for how she was rescued? or she turned wonder woman.........I'm not being sarcastic but had thot did I miss some parts for I just remember Yu wu and Wei xiu screaming Yueniang's name on and on and thot huh ending is Yueniang died?

I recalled one of ST reporter jokingly wrote that she placed the status on her facebook that she was surprised they never explain how Yu Niang became a mutant that could withstand fire.

another loop hole, given chen xi deep love for yu niang (he even travelled to Malacca to look for her) would he try to dig out the body to give a proper bruial?

Yah loh, I was telling my mom - When Yue Niang pushed Chen Xi away from the falling wood/pillar, she fell....then she still managed to escape har? Somemore without Chen Xi and Yu Zhu seeing (the house was situated in the plot of land with no other structures, so if she ran out sure can see)........... logically if you escaped, you will check if your loved ones also did right? Or would you quietly ran off (Heng Ah, Lim Pei escaped, quickly Chao first......)

There was a hidden tunnel in the burn down house which she discovered and it leads to the river side.

No way chen xi could see her running away from the house.

.

Oh, just kidding, possible escape route right, without anyone noticing.

Hi all, in case if any one out there interested to find out more about Peranakan culture. U guys can make a trip down to Malacca and stay in this hotel, Hotel Puri. Where they shoot the series. This is the house that old Yueniang stay and u can really see the sparrow flying around in the small lobby and the real bird nest which show in the series. I visited the hotel 2 weeks before the show aired. It is also near to the Peranakan museum which is down the road. I am visiting again with my bf during Valentine day this year. Just a small contribution. Happy chinese new year..

Thanks bro. Nice of you. I made a search online and found 2. Both seemed to be featured in Little Nonya. You are referring to the first one I suppose:

That could be possible haha! By the way, you won't believe what I found when I search for "tunnel". Not for the faint hearted though.....Up the volume to see if you can hear the background message near the end. Unbelieveable!

Our fellow Malaccan Baba hunk, Sundevil complained that he is stuck at home during weekends because it would be "crazy" to drive to Malacca town, to be caught in jams due to the influx of Singaporeans tourist after the show, Little Nonya.

He also says that those eating places in town are so commercialised that it is no longer as "authentic" as it used to be.

I wonder if our genuine Baba hunk, Sundevil would organise for fellow BWers a little trip to Malacca and let those Little Nonya aficianado taste "authentic" Nonya Kuehs, cuisines and the "hospitality" of Baba men.

Hi Dioscuri, the hotel that i refer to is the second website that u mention. I can't seems to open the first website. Anyway if you are stayin in hotel puri, choose to stay over friday or weekend. As there will be night market along the street. Which is what i didnt do the last trip cos i return on the Thurs. If u stay over normal weekday. Well it is actually a ghost town after 6pm. Most restuarant close early. End up we got to go eat mee goreng and roti prata for dinner during our last visit. Anyway, it is also walkin distance to site visit the red house( the fort ), shopping mall or catch a movie for RM7 per person. Food is not bd over there. The chicken rice ball store sell good chicken rice but is on ahigh side. The chendo is good. Pineapple tart is the best i tried so far... overall it will be a relaxing get away....cos nothing much to do ...hehehe..except stay in hotel with bf ..xxxx

Oh the morning reporter.. 早安你好..

Sometimes he dont appear for a week or something... not sure if he is Full-time Mediacorp staff...

But one thing for sure is that he he damn cute lor ... quite meaty too ... yummy ... sure nice to hug sia...

:rolleyes:

Oh ya, he always covered his crotch with both hands or paper while talking, can't really gauge the bulkiness of it. I think Wu Lian Siang is married, saw a ring on his finger when he did reporting.

I don't watch ch. 8 programs a lot. In fact, hardly. But I never miss a single annual telecast of our local 'Oscar' ceremony. This is of course The Little Nyonya's year. Multiple nominations so much so that you wonder if this is the only outstanding series on Ch. 8 last year.

I am always a little puzzled by the nomination of the most popular 20 artists list. First of all, who gets to come up with the initial list? Take the most popular male artists for example... I scratch my head wondering how on earth do actors like Zhu Hou Reng (I always have a crush on him), Chen Shu Cheng, Ge Ping got on the list while rising hot throbs like Dai Yang Tian wasn't even considered... why is Gurmit Singh on the list???.... he hasn't acted in any Ch. 8 series at all.

I have only two wishes. To see my favourite compere Kym Ng on the most 10 popular female artists that night. And also to see Joanne Peh win the best actress award over Jeanette Aw.

I rather Chen Liping get the best actress award. Her acting in Golden Path is really good!

As for best actor, I think no one can beat Chen Hanwei this year.

They postponed the awards for 4 months just to make space for Little Nyonya... zzz

I do know for the top 20 most popular actor and actress, they based in on a survey internal by the high management thought newspaper did report one time they based on a 100 persons survey. Almost all the nominees for all criteria are decided internally.

This is a very common practice for mediacorp. Little Nonya is so far mediacorp best drama serial made (i heard Channel 8 highest Rating so far) and thats why they making a very big hoo ha about making sure it is inside the Star Awards.

I wont be surprise the drama will swept all awards though I hardly think high of Jennette Aw. Prefer Joanne Peh.

they should also have limited the number of nominations from a single serial. Look at best supporting actress, Little Nonya basically swept almost all the nomination places.

yes I know Little Nonya was good (the rating was there) but is there a need to push for so many nominations?

This is a damn interesting blog, u dudes talk about anything under the sun. Been in Singapore for a while and now, i'm in Cambodia for business, i did get to watch the little nonya which you guys are talking about. Well, its kind of 3 weeks late telecast as mentioned by those dudes i knew from Sgp. I do like that lady whom acted as the mother of the main nonya.

Haha... You are talking about Xiang Yun? Our local actresses veteran. She is the mother of all actresses in fact! Haha.. Yup, she is really good at what she do.

And even know Jeanette's acting is really not too bad in this series, I just simply dun fancy her.. Yeah guys, Joanna Peh anytime!! But Chen Liping in Just in Singapore is also one of my fav...

I'm also rooting for Ng Hui aka Tao Jie in best supporting actress! She really had a breakthrough in her acting skills this yr! =)

Am i allowed to say that i hope Felicia Chin win for Best Actress for The Golden Path?

I cant believe everyone is ignoring that drama. Any drama with Li Nanxing in it deserves some awards! Gotta love him.

This is the most boring show on earth, not even on par with golden horse in hong kong. Singapore TV is just a bunch of wayang, from the head to the crew and every actor and actress were subjected not thru popularity but the management likings. If you show any actors or actresses faces and asked me to name who they are, I will definitely score a zero because I don't watch Ch8 drama or star shows, or newbies competition show or any other for that matter. I will bore to death literally until my neighbour found out and scream for help>

Don't waste money or your time on it. If Singapore became a dead town lack of entertainment or movies, you might just consider tuning in briefly to watch this "star award". I prefer to simply sit in front of my PC and watch pxxn. Sorry guys, spare me the trauma with this topic.
