Niki Chow and Raymond Wong hosted a feast in Causeway Bay to reward the cast and crew of TVB series Bottled Passion. Producer Lee Tim Shing and artists Elaine Yiu, Tracy Ip, Katy Kung, Jack Wu and Kelvin Chan attended. As the series is in the 'PK broadcast period' (in the ashes), where the broadcast coincides with several holidays, the average ratings is only 25-26 points. Tim Gor was very upset by how TVB haven't given him much attention, but he still appeared at the dinner gathering last night.
Regarding this, Tim Gor smiled and said he was not upset: "It's just a small issue, this broadcast period really doesn't have too many viewers, Christmas, Lunar New Years and Easter periods also have less people watching, but there will still be series releasing. Since I'm the chosen one, my path is chosen as well. I've experienced this many times in the last many years that I've been working in this industry."
Despite the 'PK period', Niki and Raymond are still filled with confidence on the 2 hour finale to broadcast on Monday. The two both hope to break 30 points in the ratings. Niki said: "Tim Gor said this broadcast period isn't good, but that's okay. I always hear viewers talk about the series, most important is to have the public response, more people watching." Niki also supports Tim Gor by describing him as a straightforward person.
Raymond felt the broadcast time is out of artists control: "I'm not sure if Tim Gor is upset, but luckily the series is getting good response, I'm am personally very happy."
