ANTHONY Morse would not have ended up on television if he hadn’t happened to see a commercial one night. “I was watching a programme on the History Channel and during the commercial break they had a blurb asking: ‘Do you like to travel, do you like history and interacting with people? You could be the next host of a new series History Asia is producing.’

“I thought, oh my gosh I would love to do that. Something within me said, hey go for it and see what happens,” he recalls.
