Storyline
Plot Summary |
It's 1964. The world is changing, the global balance of power is shifting, and Singapore is at a crossroads. British colonial rule has finally come to an end and independence is on the horizon. It's an exciting time in which the island state can finally forge its own identity. The nation's heartbeat stems from one main artery that runs through the island. Whether it is culture or crime, politics or patriotism, espionage or enterprise, all paths lead to Serangoon Road (2013). This is the world of Sam Callaghan (Don Hany), Kang (Alaric), Patricia Cheng (Joan Chen), and the clients of the Cheng Detective Agency. Sam Callaghan agrees to help Patricia Cheng after her husband is killed while working on a case. Patricia might not be a detective, but she knows that her company needs a good investigator with contacts in the various local communities as well as among the ex-pats. Sam is all of that. But after a childhood in a POW camp and a checkered career in Military Intelligence during the Malay Emergency, he also carries so much baggage. The Cheng Detective Agency's cases range from the usual (straying spouses and petty fraudsters) to conspiracies and events with international implications. Sam's contacts from his military days are useful, but they drag him back into a dark world that he would prefer to leave behind. Written by HBO Asia |

Trivia | Singapore gained independence in 1961 and all vice including brothels and gambling became illegal and was closed down...this is supposed to be 1964. Singapore joined Malaysia in 1963 and became fully independent in 1965. Vice was not cleared up overnight! See more » |
Goofs | Mandarin wasn't very commonly used for day to day conversation in Singapore during the 1960s. Regional dialects like Hokkien (Min Nan) were way more common, even amongst expatriates that spoke local languages. See more » |
