Synopsis

Singapore has been evolving at a blistering pace and old Singapore is in danger of being left behind. As the nation celebrates its fiftieth anniversary, Neil heads off on a tour of Old Singapore to find the sights and sounds that are at risk of being overlooked, forgotten or bulldozed. He walks, rides, swims and snorkels across land and sea, taking in distant islands and bluish lagoons. He paddles with otters, ventures into haunted hospitals and suffers an unfortunate slip with a tanned teenager in a sarong.
