There is a Japanese game show called "Takeshi's Castle" playing this Thursday
night on the Australian cable channel ARENA. From the brief description listed
on the channel's website ("contestants must climb a wall while giant boulders
roll down at them") it sounds like it may indeed be the same show. I would
also be interested in more information on this show.
