- Wong Wai Sing is using the original cast and crew of "Inbound Troubles" to film a Qing Dynasty version.
- Wong Cho Lam, Joey Meng, Louis Cheung, and Bob Lam are all returning.
- Joey was originally going to pair with Roger Kwok again; however, Roger already accepted Catherine Tsang's Qing Dynasty series, so Ben Wong will be taking over.
- Louis will play a character who is both good and evil.
- Cho Lam and Bob will continue to be funny.
- Angela Tong wants to guest-star.

Personal Note: Thought of Ben Wong as a possible candidate, but didn't want it to be him....

Such a pity that Roger already agreed to film Lee Yim Fong's series...since he is shaving his head, definitely would have been nice to see him collaborate with Joey again!

    1. Ben was just one of the candidates I thought of whom I didn't want in the series.

  2. Roger's filming a Catherine series instead of this? I thought Roger was in Tommy's camp, so wouldn't it make more sense if he'd be filming "Food" instead?

    Was Ben the last person to be considered to take over because the producer said that Ben was willing to shave his head for the role, so those that mean that no other actor was willing to shave?

    1. To Guru:

      Wong Wai Sing didn't approach Roger in time, as he already agreed to film for Catherine.

      It did sound as though Ben was the only one willing to shave for the role.
