    Sammul Chan Cashes in Thanks to "First Beat"

    [​IMG]

    Sammul Chan, Fiona Yuen, at17, Lulu Ng, Nat Chan and wife Cecilia Wong were guests at the premiere of "Shrek the Third" earlier and Fiona was asked about the reports that her boyfriend was spending the night at her home. She says: "He just took me home after we went out for dinner. My family of five is living at my home now, so there is no way he could have stayed over!"

    Sammul was asked about the poor ratings for "On the First Beat" and he says: "I don't know why. It needs time and maybe when the storyline picks up, then it will get better. (Is it because of the rumours between Michael Tao and Sonija Kwok that is affecting ratings?) It is hard to answer this question." However, he does reveal that thanks to the series his income has increased this month by a six figure sum. Also he reveals that when he was at a spa in Thailand, a female masseuse was staring at him when he stripped naked and the shock made his body stiffen up like a vampire.

    "On the First Beat" has come under fire from the netizens as being unoriginal and copying storylines from other sources. Also it has been pointed out that the criminal who killed Michael Miu's character in the series prequel "The Academy" has returned as an officer in the Police Training School in a baffling continuation error.

    Kate Tsui is continuing to come under fire for her overacting and her poor attempts to reprise the Maggie Cheung Man Yuk role from the 80's. Producer Wong Wai Sing supports her though, saying: "I had spoken to Kate and she says she is a little unhappy, but have consoled her. To have this kind of response indicates she has done extremely well and when her role changes, then it will not be as bothersome."
