8 Dukes of Caldecott Hill


The 8 Dukes of Caldecott Hill is a term referring to the eight most promising young Mediacorp actors from Singapore in the 2010s, namely Zhang Zhenhuan, Romeo Tan, Desmond Tan, Jeffrey Xu, Xu Bin, Ian Fang, Aloysius Pang and Shane Pow. The designation was first made at the 2014 Star Awards. They performed as a boy band at the 2014 New Year’s Eve countdown party, Celebrate SG50. As expected, the eight actors dominated Singapore television in the following decade with varying degrees of success.
