    Four Stars!!!!!!

    And one star less only because I thought Nora Samosir's character can be explored even more, but with one hour - I guess this is the best local drama I've seen in a long long while. I love the 6 weeks by Adrian Pang - and this segment - Broken English, Rafaat Hamzah scores as the blue collar guy who has everybody rooting from him. I mean - Jack Neo, Royston or some director should really look to such actors to help them make the heartland stories come alive. He breathes the character. And Nora - is simply engaging as the actress. So much love in this story - I just am so consumed by it. THumbs up!
