Walang Hanggan

Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan (transl. at the end of forever, international title: Till The End of Time) is a Philippine television drama broadcast by ABS-CBN. Starring Claudine Barretto, Carlos Agassi, Luis Alandy and Mylene Dizon, it aired on the network's Primetime Combo-Nalo line up (later known as [Teleserye] Primetime Bida) from March 26, 2001 to February 28, 2003 replacing Saan Ka Man Naroroon and replaced by Darating ang Umaga.

The series is currently streaming on Jeepney TV's YouTube channel beginning July 5, 2025, replacing Sa Sandaling Kailangan Mo Ako in its 1:00 PM time slot.[1]

Premise

The story revolves around Ángelina (1912) / Angeline Montenegro (2001) (Claudine Barretto) in the early years of her life. In the beginning of the present generation, a new love story awaits when Angeline, who lives a very normal life, has problems when Sally (Mylene Dizon) comes into the household and starts making those around her miserable. Sally takes her anger out on everyone only to find out that once and for all, only love and truth will prevail. In the end, Angeline must face the truth as to who is the man fated to love her amongst Miguel (Teodoro from the past), Clarence, or Benjie (Benedicto from the past in 1912).

Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan opens in Bulacan in 1912, where the town's President Municipal, Don Teodoro (Ronaldo Valdez) has just announced the betrothal of his eldest son Alfonso (Bernard Palanca) to the lovely Angelina, who was persuaded to agree to the engagement by her mother, Consuelo (Tetchie Agbayani) in order to free her father, Sebastian (Spanky Manikan), a bandido accused of killing an American supporter.[2] Despite agreeing to the marriage, however, Angelina has one little secret: Her heart really belongs to another man, Alfonso's brother, Benedicto (Carlos Agassi), who was also Angelina's childhood sweetheart.

The action then flashes forward to the present day, where another betrothal is being announced as prosperous couple Norberto (Robert Arevalo) and Corazon (Boots Anson-Roa) oversee the engagement party for their daughter Angeline and Hector (Troy Montero), the handsome son of Menandro (Jaime Fabregas), one of Norberto's business associates. As an engagement gift, Angelina's parents buy her and Hector a rest house in Bulacan - the same one where Angelina and Alfonso were affianced all those years ago.

But what threads bind the present to that distant past? Only one witness remains: Lola Carmela/Mameng (Gloria Romero), the house's current caretaker and the keeper of a mysterious locket that may be the key that unlocks the complicated story between Angelina, Alfonso and Benedicto.

Recurring cast

  • Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan also aired through ABS-CBN's local radio stations from 2001 to 2003 throughout its run. The radio version aired the episodes from the previous evening that have already aired on television, thus effectively serving as a rerun.
  • Mula sa Puso and Saan Ka Man Naroroon, the two preceding series in the same time slot of the show, also had Claudine Barretto as the main protagonist.
  • Dianne Dela Fuente, fresh from the hit TV series Pangako Sa 'Yo, replaced Carol Banawa as Minerva in the latter part of the series. Due to scriptwriting changes, Minerva was not seen again until the halfway through the series, and by the time Minerva was needed, Carol Banawa was already busy with her new soap Bituin, which premiered in September 2002.
  • Rico Yan was originally going to play Benjie/Benedicto but turned down the role due to his commitments, which includes the noontime show Magandang Tanghali Bayan and the sitcom Whattamen. The role went to Carlos Agassi instead. After turning down the role, however, Yan was offered again to be part of the soap, this time playing the part of MJ/Miguel Jr. It was reported that upon his return from Lenten vacation in Palawan, he was about to start taping for the series. Unfortunately, he died while on vacation on March 29, 2002; Leandro Munoz then took over the role intended for Rico.
  • Claudine Barretto wore a necklace given to her by a fan as a sign of gratitude.
  • Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan had a stellar cast, which included Gladys Reyes. She again was cast as a villain to Claudine Barretto's character, after having previously portrayed Melissa, the main antagonist in Barretto's previous series Saan Ka Man Naroroon. Reyes, who portrayed Ruella in Sa Dulo, was also notable for appearing as Maningning in the afternoon TV series Recuerdo de Amor around the same time as Sa Dulo.
  • Mylene Dizon's role as Sara/Sally saw a major change to her public image; prior to the show, she was best known for her role as Melanie, a working student, in the weekly teen drama series Gimik, which ended two years before Sa Dulo premiered. Dizon was typecast as a main antagonist afterwards, and was recognized by many viewers as the one who made Claudine Barretto's life miserable in the show.
    • This was referenced in the 2002 film Super B, where in one of the scenes, Rufa Mae Quinto's character uttered "Sobra ka na ah. Napapanood kita ah, dami ka nang ginagawang kasalanan kay Claudine!" ("You're already being too much. I have been watching you, you already did so many sins against Claudine!") at one of her nemeses, who was played by Dizon.[3]
  • The series' theme song was used again for another soap called Walang Hanggan in the same network. Helen Gamboa was part of both series.
  • Ayegee Paredes, one of the interpreters of the theme song, later became a contestant in Talentadong Pinoy on TV5 in 2012, and in ABS-CBN/Kapamilya Channel's Tawag ng Tanghalan on It's Showtime in 2020–21 and 2025. She was first discovered in 1997 during "Awitanghalan", a regional singing contest.
  • The series was Dennis Trillo's first major television appearance before moving to GMA Network.
  • This is the last television series of Ricky Belmonte, Don Laurel and Leandro Muñoz. The former died during the first year of the show's airing in 2001, while the latter two respectively migrated to Canada and the United States in 2002 and 2003. Laurel's character was eventually killed off.
