K-100 Exclusive Interview with Bosco, Raymond, and Tavia from The Charades of Deception

"Welcome to all viewers to K-100. I'm Natalie Tong and today I will be your host for this special segment of K-100 in which I will be interviewing three of the main cast of the successful drama series, The Charades of Deception, which I'm also in! Please welcome Raymond Lam, Tavia Yeung, and Bosco Wong."

Natalie sat the two actors and the actress in front of her. Jokes flew about as Natalie prepared for them to begin the interview.

Natalie: Welcome to K-100, Raymond, Tavia, and Bosco.

All: Thanks, Natalie.

N: First of all, I would like to congratulate all three of you for the huge success in ratings in The Charades of Deception. So for the first rounds of question, my victim will be Raymond.

Raymond [laughing]: Oh no...

N: So how does it feel to work with [looking at Tavia evilly] Bosco?

Bosco looked at Tavia and tried to cover his mouth from laughing. Tavia responded by jabbing him back hard on the ribs.

R: Hmm...I definitely had more fun working with Ron in Twins of Brothers.

Bosco: Hey! [shoved Raymond in the shoulder] He definitely had fun both times, since he got to work with Tavia for both series!

Tavia: Hey, hey, hey. Don't drag me into this!

N: Don't worry, you two. I'll soon get to you guys. Raymond, a lot of reviews has praised you for your acting in your dramatic role as an ambitious, cute, but slightly villainous entrepreneur. How do you think you have performed in this series yourself?

R: A lot of viewers have actually compared my role to that played by Ron in Revolving Doors of Vengeance and that personally played by myself as Oscar in The Golden Faith. I think the audience are probably thinking that my rebellious nature in The Charades resembles those two characters, but I personally think that this character is a little bit different. For one part, my role in The Charades is calm, collected, very analytical, pragmatic...

N [interrupting]: And also very romantic. [smiling at Tavia]

R [chuckled]: Uhh...yeah. Whereas, Ron's character was sort of fiery and on the impulsive side. Oscar was like a little kid who can be easily influenced to do anything, even if its against his primal good nature.

N: How did you feel working with Louis again? The last series you two have cooperated was A Step Into The Past, and back then, there were rumours of a fallout between you two?

R [laughing]: There are rumours of a fallout between everyone and me. Just a couple of weeks ago, everyone started talking about a supposed rift between Ron and me. It's stupid. I'm happy to be working with Louis again. He taught me a lot back then when I was still a beginner and even now that I am more experienced, I still have a lot to learn from him.

N: Enough of the basics stuff. I think everyone really wants to know how you felt when you filmed those steamy scenes with Tavia?

T [sat straight up]: What? Nobody wants to know that!

B [hands up]: I do! I do!

Both Raymond and Tavia simultaneously leaned over to shove Bosco.

N: There was this one particular scene where both you and Tavia were swimming in the ocean back in Greece. How did you feel about that scene?

R [shifted nervously]: Uhh...I thought we did a pretty good job.

B: They were both grinning when they walked out of the water!

T: Was not! [slapped Bosco's shoulder] We were cold and our teeth were chattering so it might have looked like we were grinning!

N [raising her eyebrow]: Tavia, is this the first series where you filmed your first bed scene?

T: Hmm...I think so. No...wait, I had a bed scene with Matt Yeung in The W Files. But I guess this is the first one where I actually had to show some skin and scare off some of the audience.

N: I'm certain that at least the male sector of the audience is appreciative of that... [the group laughed] Did you feel uncomfortable filming such an intimate scene with Raymond on the bed, who was also unclothed?

T [darted a glance at Raymond, then looked back at Natalie]: No...Raymond and I have worked together on many occasions already so we have pretty much gotten used to each other's acting style. He can pretty much read my mind and I his. In this way, we're very compatible as on-screen co-stars, because we know exactly how to build the right chemistry.

N: But to film such an intimate scene...aren't you two scared of generating rumours?

B [laughing]: What? Don't you think the rumours about them are already enough? What else can a bed scene do?

R: Besides [biting his lip], we were wearing clothes underneath the blankets.

The three laughed as Raymond self-consciously tried to rub his face in an effort to shield his blushing face from the camera.

N: Alright, I'll let you off the hook on that one, Tavia. So what is your most memorable scene in this entire series?

T [tapped her finger against her chin]: Well...there's a lot actually, because my character experienced so much turmoil and complicated relationships with the people surrounding her. But I guess one of the sweetest scenes that stuck to my memory is when RAYMOND'S CHARACTER tried to make up with me after a fight between us two. I was sitting at a restaurant by myself and all of a sudden, he showed up with signs.

N: I remember that scene. Let's take a look at it again.

R [buried his head in his hands]: Oh noooo...

Pic 3: Self-explanatory

B: Awwwwww...Raymond. I never got a chance to watch that scene. I never knew you were such a romantic sap!

R [slugged Bosco on the arm]: Hey, if the script calls for it.

N: I remember that scene was aired at the end of an episode, so the ratings of the next episode skyrocketed to 35 as everyone was waiting for Tavia's answer.

B [looked down]: Man...everyone always forgets my butt-flashing scene.

N [laughing]: Don't worry, Bosco. For sure, I won't forget to mention that when it's your part of the interview. Tavia, how did you feel when Raymond approached you like that?

T: Raymond's character, Natalie. I think any girl like me would be smitten. It was just the simplicity of the scene that really captivated me. Sometimes, words just aren't necessary.

B: Hear that, Raymond? Next time you piss off Tavia, just write her a letter and save your money on the flowers.

N: Actually that reminds me...what is the deal with the wedding photo of you two?

R: Uh oh...I knew she was going to bring this up.

T [laughing]: We were just fooling around back then. It doesn't mean anything.

N: But it also doesn't help with settling the rumours between you two.

R: Trust reporters to be able to find everything. You guys can believe whatever you want...Tavia and I have already said enough.

The interview continues with Natalie turning her attention to Bosco, while the golden couple, Raymond and Tavia sat together laughing as it was Bosco's turn to struggle with his own questions.
