The Noose: SMRT & Spot on Singaporean Indian Accent
Most people who try to do a heavy Singaporean Indian accent fail miserably. Suhaimi Yusof on The Noose, nailed it. Chua Enlai does the Aussie accent. What do Australians think? Was it good? [youtube]AtkgtU6fz1Y[/youtube]

The Noose: Michelle Chong as the Obnoxious Auntie
I just love Michelle Chong’s spot on parody of the Singapore Obnoxious Aunty and Chua Enlai’s spoof of our Newscasters and their contrived accents. This episode is from an old season, but it’s such a classic. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1AugMhReoM]

The Noose – Best Show on Local TV
