For the past week, both Matt and I have gotten messages about seeing Matt on Channel 8 trailers. The boy’s had strangers asking if it was him that saw on TV and Matt would say, “no, no. It’s just someone who looks like me.” hahahaahah
But the truth is, yes, that’s him and my family on Channel 8 with him. A couple weeks back, Martin happily gave Matt’s number to his producer friend without asking Matt for his permission. His friend was looking for expats living in Singapore and when he heard from Martin that Matt stays with his girlfriend’s family in a HDB flat in heartland Tampines while his girlfriend is living and working in HK, he probably observed an interesting angle for his programme.
Matt was rather unwilling, seeing how he had to take time off work and truthfully, he had nothing to gain from this. Apparently, they hardly asked him about his job, so no coverage there at all and him taking time off work means earning less for him. Ah well, it’s over.
We really wanted Kirsten and Seth to be around for the filming in my parent’s place but the film crew was only coming by at 6pm and Sis was adamant about not breaking the kids’ schedules. HMPH. I really wanna see them on TV though. :( Anyway, I won’t be around when it airs on 21 Nov. This Friday! 8:30pm.
I really hope the producer kept to his words of giving Matt a copy of the programme (I’m kinda cynical when it comes to promises like that though). Anyhow, Matt said he would put me on Skype to watch it via webcam so I don’t have to wait! Yayyyy
So, there would be my parents and brother on the show with Matt. And me? I would only appear on photos. hahahaaha
