Summary of what was said
That the story of the Japanese marathon runner Kanakuri Shiso who "went missing" during the Olympic Games 1912 in Stockholm will become a drama series. He didn't register that he canceled the marathon (probably due to the heat), there he was considered "missing."
Short interview with director Inoue Tsuyoshi and main actor Nakamura Kankuro.
Nakamura Kankuro was asked how well known Kanakuri Shiso is in Japan.
He answered that he's 36 years old, but he don't think that many people younger than him knows of Kankuro, except those who are into the sport.
What wasn't said
They didn't say specifically that it was Idaten, or that it will air on NHK, but I could figure it out by the rest of what was said. Big budget historical drama that will air for one year on a Japanese channel equal to SVT (state run TV network) = NHK.
And little help from Jdrama Weblog.
