Aired (December 18, 2003): This is the legacy story of the prominent Filipino television personality, Bert Marcelo (Jose Manalo), whose trademark high-pitched infectious laughter earned him the popular moniker "Tawa," after the Tagalog word for a laugh. Marcelo, who was born in Baliuag, Bulacan, was a legendary San Miguel Beer endorser. He was best known as the co-host with Pilita Corrales of Ang Bagong Kampeon, a long-running television talent show that discovered Regine Velasquez and other talents. In the 1970s, he also appeared in films and television shows such as Baltic and Company and Us Girls.
Marcelo was at the peak of his career when he died of a stroke shortly after losing the Bulacan governor race in 1995.
