SINGAPORE: MediaCorp's Chinese language drama, "The Little Nyonya", has raked in massive ratings to become the most watched Channel 8 drama in the past 15 years.
The series attracted an average of 993,000 viewers over the one month that it was aired.
The next highest drama was "Portrait of Home 2", which was telecast in 2005 and attracted an average of 917,000 viewers.
"The Little Nyonya", starring actress Jeanette Aw, traces the life of a long-suffering Peranakan woman.

The storyline spans over 70 years, starting in the 1930s.
"The Little Nyonya" is telecast on weekdays from 9pm to 10pm. The series will end next Monday (January 5) with a two-hour telecast from 8pm.
