Banzai

Name: Banzai
Genre: Comedy
Duration: 30 min
Rating: 7

Banzai was a British comedy gambling gameshow spoofing Japanese gameshows and general television style. It was produced by Radar, part of RDF Media. Each segment of the show was a silly or bizarre contest. Members of the viewing audience were encouraged to bet with each other on the outcome of each segment. The pseudo-Japanese characters seen on screen during the programme are meaningless.
