Are there dinosaurs in Singapore? Were there ever whales in Singapore's waters? Whatever happened to that drink called Anything and Whatever? What is the oldest playground in Singapore? And is it that easy to create a top-grade tourist attraction? No question is too small, frivolous or mundane for Deep Dive's bumbling investigative duo. In this 12-episode series, join Thet and Vic as they traverse our tiny island to question experts and public agencies shamelessly. Using whatever leads they can get their hands on, our writer and producer duo take a deep dive to find answers to our burning questions.
