THERE could be serious blood-letting at the Coliseum on Tuesday night when eight of Hong Kong's razor-sharp wits are let loose during Metro Radio's 'Battle of the Mouths'.
Metro's chief executive Philip Chan Yan-kin, the brains behind the idea, said it would be like a game show where teams will be pitted against each other - battling it out with their quick repartee, wit and wry observations.
Top comedian Michael Hui Koon-man heads the list of 'motor mouths', which also includes TVB game show host Nat Chan Pak-cheung, actor-director Eric Tsang Chi-wai, political commentator Wong Yuk-man, film-maker John Sham Kin-fun, actresses Lam Kin-ming and Christine Ng Wing-mei, plus disc jockey Siu Kwok-wah.
All are known for their ability to cut down their opponents armed with nothing but their wit.
On hand to dispense justice will be legislative councillor Christine Loh Kung-wai and, possibly, former Secretary for Administrative Services and Information, Peter Tsao Kwang-yung..
The two masters of ceremonies for the night will be Hit Radio's Ocean Chan Hoi-kei and Lui Yu-yeung.
