ガキの使い 絶対に笑ってはいけない空港24時!
Gaki No Tsukai Absolutely No Laughing Airport 24 Hours
Guests During Hour Four (9:30pm to 10:30pm): VIEW
This continues my catalog of the numerous guests during the New Year's Eve GnT broadcast.
The centerpiece of this hour is another (very welcome) session of the 豆絞りの会 "MameShibori(spotted pattern washcloth) Club" in which the members torture themselves in various ways. It's a welcome and hilarious return.
ローラ(Lola)
Lola, Bangladashi/Japanese (and Russian) model makes a brief appearance.
関根勤(Sekine Tsutomu)
Although for this appearance, he's dressed as an old man, you might remember Sekine as the referee for the GnT Jan-Ken-Pon Tournaments.
I'd prevously seen the combi "2700" on several variety programs, doing largely the same act. It wasn't funny there either. 2700 is comprised of Yasoshima Hiroyuki(八十島弘行) and Tsune(ツネ).
He's thankfully not given any lines, but Junior Gaijin Geinin Chad Marren(?) makes an appearance as a foreign pilot.
This is his first appearance on the show since Matsumoto described his weird experience with him in episode #1083.
ケンドーコバヤシ(Kendo Kobayashi)
Taking charge of this year's MameShibori segment ("spotted pattern" or "Hand Towel Group") is certainly one of the most talented, witty and charismatic geinin working today. This segment doesn't really highlight his ability as a raconteur, but he always gives the impression of someone that would be great fun to be around.
クロちゃん(Kuro-Chyan)
A member of Yasuda-Great Circus (安田大サーカス) a three member comedy troupe, Kuro-Chyan appears to talk in a weird high-pitched voice.
His attempt to sustain a hit from a water-bottle-rocket uppercut device fails.
岩尾望(Iwao Nozomu)
Iwao, a member of Football Hour (フットボールアワー) is no stranger to GnT, having appeared very successfully in several of its funniest episodes over the last few years, most noticably episodes #1075 and #1076.
Iwao really outdoes himself this year, not only eating Udon in a washing machine, but dumping three buckets of hot wax over his head, which prompts Matsumoto to remark "He looks like a monster!"
田中卓志(Tanaka Takushi)
Tanaka of the combi Angaaruzu(アンガールズ), a very common and talented geinin keeps pace with Iwao throughout the segment.
原西孝幸(Haranishi Takayuki)
Haranishi, the very talented Boke from FUJIWARA here tries his hand at the "Battle Without Chopsticks" from episode #1080. It's just as funny here as it was there.
中村喜伸(Producer Nakamura Yoshinobu)
The legend Producer Nakamura, who so dominated the "Battle without Chopsticks" here tires his hand at something else.
He has 60 seconds to put the snake into the black box. Magic ensues.
出川哲朗(Degawa Tetsuro)
Degawa is now a standby on Japanese variety programs. He's perhaps the first Geinin I grew to know and recognize.
Here, Degawa endures gun-cotton being lit on his posterior. I really don't know how painful this is.
ワッキー(Wakki or "Wacky")
Wacky from Penalty(ぺナルティ) must endure a judo throw onto a tatami mat covered with spiky Kompeito candy. It's probably like stepping on Legos.
上島竜兵(Ueshima Ryouhei)
Ueshima is a standby for these MameShibori segments, although this year he seems to take a back seat to Kobayashi. Considering the abuse he's taken in previous years, I certainly don't blame him.
Here, however, he has compressed-air injected into his anus, in preparation for an arm wrestling match ("what kind of rules are these?" asks Hamada). It doesn't really get that far, however.
ほっしゃん(Hosshyan)
Very weird comedian Hosshyan also takes part in the compressed-air arm wrestling challenge. Hosshyan demonstrates far less bodily control than he has on other occasions.
遠藤ー家(The Endou family)
Endou's Mother, Father and Brother appear. It looks as though they've never met Matsumoto before.
Korean-born(?) DJ Koo from the "band" TRF makes a short appearance. I'm unaware of its significance.
友近(Tomochika)
山口智充(Yamaguchi Tomomitsu)
