Dingdong Dantes showcases acting mettle on ‘Alyas Robin Hood’ by Crispina Martinez - Belen September 20, 2016 Read more at http://www.mb.com.ph/dingdong-dantes-showcases-acting-mettle-on-alyas-robin-hood/#j7HukRlqQtpXuV4C.99

In his return to primetime via Kapuso Network’s “Alyas Robin Hood,” Dingdong Dantes showcases the breadth of his acting skills as the series combines action, drama, adventure and comedy.
The series also dramatically demonstrates the inspiring truth that each one of us can be a hero, and able to be of service to other people. The show is action-packed which will surely entice male viewers too.
“Maganda ’yung feeling na magiging part ka ng pag-solve ng isang problem sa lugar ninyo, na tumutulong ka sa community. Pero ang mas mahalaga, siyempre, ay ’yung paghahanap ng katotohanan. I think isa ’yun sa gustong ma-achieve ng character sa kuwento – malaman kung saan nagmula, sino ang may kagagawan ng lahat,” the actor said of his role.
His co-stars are Andrea Torres and 2013 Miss World Megan Young. Joining them are seasoned actors Cherie Gil, Sid Lucero, Jaclyn Jose; and playing key roles are Paolo Contis, Gary Estrada, John Feir, Tanya Gomez, Gio Alvarez, Lindsay de Vera, Dave Bornea, and Caprice Cayetano. Completing the powerhouse cast are Rey “PJ” Abellana and Ces Quesada.
“Alyas Robin Hood” director Dominic Zapata promised to push for a “deeper” story, something they will all be proud of and one that will surely “make a mark.”

Businessman marks 92nd milestone
Successful businessman (Harrison Plaza among other ventures) Antonio Martel marked his 92nd birthday this year but unlike before, he opted for a quiet Sunday dinner with only family (wife, children and grandchildren) in attendance.
A hearty eater at his age, wife Belen is glad Tony only takes two kinds of pills: His maintenance for blood pressure and aspirin.
The party is a far cry from the one last year held at the Main Lounge of Manila Polo Club. It was a Filipiniana event with 400 guests. They had the Bayanihan dancers, the Pangkat Kawayan, the Madrigal Singers and other performers.
The year before, when Tony turned 90, he had his birthday party at the Isla Ballroom of the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel with 500 well-wishers.
