Longer TVB8 Interview: Watch

*****

Voice Over: With Raymond Lam, Tavia Yeung, Kenneth Ma and Astrid Chan casted in , today finally in amidst the busy street filmed the last scene. Even though, this scene does not confirm whether Raymond and Tavia will have a happily ever after ending, seeing Raymond publically propose to Tavia in public is definitely a very touching scene.

Raymond: Tavia doesn’t need to be nervous, the one who should be nervous is me. I have to propose to her in public. And today its very busy over here but I feel it’s very fun. For this scene I have to wear a tuxedo. It’s my first time wearing a tux proposing in public so I feel its fun.

Astrid: This scene is very important because Raymond has to propose to Tavia. Because previously he made you sad

Tavia: Broke up already

Astrid: Yes, so this time our police team and her family and also Raymond’s family and all the friends all gathered on this street. Initially, Tavia was shopping for grocery with her mum and then we told her we have a “special mission”. Raymond will appear and propose to her a very romantic scene

Tavia: Don’t know if this happens in real life. Think yes?

Astrid: I think it does happen [indicating to Tavia] so beautiful right?

Tavia (laughs): Yes, so handsome [referring to Raymond]

Astrid: No! I was referring to you!

Tavia (pats Astrid on the shoulder laughing): I was talking about Raymond!

Astrid: Raymond? [pretends to think about it]

Tavia jokes: He’s pass-worthy!

Astrid: Pass-worthy..okay la [laughs]

Voiceover: Proposal stage is a procedure that every male needs to do. But for a proposal, Raymond reckons there are a few things a man needs to prepare.

Raymond: A proposal “must” needs to include sincere effort [Cantonese: "sing yee"] and erm, also a girl to propose to [laughs] a girl you love. And I think you really need a ring, a diamond ring because it symbolizes eternity but I think [face suddenly turns serious] the props department today forgot to prepare for the diamond ring. I think I’ll need to use my sincere effort (during the proposal) to make up for it.

Voiceover: Getting married and having children is a process every girl must go through, but is it getting married first? Or first have kids? Ending, not every girl is the same. Like Tavia’s sister Griselda who had her baby first. Will Tavia be like her sister or be traditional first getting married then have children?

Tavia: A woman with both career and marriage is most content

Astrid: Most content, but they are asking you whether you’ll marry first or have children first so like myself, I had a baby first then getting married. Will you then be more traditional?

Tavia: I don’t mind, if I accidently get pregnant I will still have the baby

Astrid: You mean have baby first then get married is still acceptable right?

Tavia: Yeah

Astrid: Modern day females are like this

Tavia [laughing]: No choice

Astrid [bursts out laughing]

Tavia: You can’t not have the baby!

Voiceover: The annual TVB awards ceremony is coming up, will Tavia who won an award previously will move up a step to take the “Best Actress” throne?

Tavia: I think every actor will wish to get the highest honour being “Best Leading Actress” or “Best Leading Actor”. I also really want to get this award but an award is a form of encouragement, it is a recognition for yourself. As for the award, I will think like normal. So long as I put in my best effort into filming it is enough. You can’t set your desire too high for an award- need to achieve it with your skills. This year, I’m able to face the award ceremony with a happy attitude.

Astrid: I think Tavia has something she is very good at. A lot of audience cannot see behind the scene. Normally a lot of actors when they win an award will feel really proud. However, when I act with her, even during scenes when she’s not filming yet, she’ll wait very patiently and will never be late and treat everyone really well. This year in “Beyond The Realm of Conscience” you will need to be a villain. Within our colleagues a lot of us are supporting her.

Tavia: Really?

Astrid: Yes. Because I feel a good person should have a good return.

Tavia: I’ll tell you what, no matter if I win the award or not, I’ll let you see “Best Actress” [turns around and shows her back- a play on the Cantonese words as Best Actress sounds like "back" in Chinese].

Astrids Laughs: Woah…awesome!
