It has been announced that violinist Chisako Takashima, actor Kotaro Koizumi, and Shingo Fujimori of the comedy duo "Oriental Radio" will be appearing on the 50th anniversary special of the long-running talk show "Tetsuko's Room," hosted by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi, which will be broadcast on February 1st (TV Asahi network, excluding some areas).
The three are currently appearing together on the variety show "Platinum Family: A Peek into the Magnificent Family" (TV Asahi, Tuesdays at 7pm, excluding some regions). They will appear after Hirano Remi, Shimizu Michiko, and Moriyama Ryoko, bringing the total number of guests in the studio to six.
Kuroyanagi was delighted, saying, "There are so many people, my eyes are wide open!" and immediately asked Fujimori to "do the usual thing!". When Fujimori performed his familiar "playboy gag," "You're so cute!", Kuroyanagi burst out in laughter, but Hirano, who was meeting him for the first time, cut him off, saying, "You have a good face, but when you talk, you're so frivolous." At the mercy of his senior colleagues, Fujimori was so embarrassed that Takashima pointed out, "You're sweating profusely."
During the program, Kuroyanagi delves deeper into Koizumi, who is 47 and single, by asking him, "What kind of family do you want to have?"
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the program, "Celebrating Tetsuko's Room's 50th Anniversary: A Super Luxury! Celebration Special with the Whole Entertainment Industry," will be broadcast from 5:00 pm to 8:56 pm on February 1st. Also scheduled to appear are Snow Man's Meguro Ren, Akashiya Sanma, Shofutei Tsurube, Asada sisters Mai and Mao, and Miyazawa Rie.
