The longest talk show in the world

Visit the Köln Arcaden today and you can watch, and maybe take part in, the longest talk show in the world. To celebrate the 5th Anniversary of the left banks' largest shopping mall (and pick-pocket haven) there will be a whole bunch of "promis" and special guests taking part in this "Dauermarathon" which will raise money for the Cologne Aids charity, Kölner Aidshilfe.    ARD-actor Claus Vinçon from Lindenstraße will be there, plus comidienne Gabi Weiss, and SuperRTL moderator Robert Schön.  Starting from 1pm these brave presenters will welcome a new guest to the stage every half an hour, these guests will range from divers, chimney sweeps and cheerleeders, to journalists and martial arts experts like our very own Michael Thomanek, the founder of Jido (he'll be there at 9.30pm).  Go along and take part, or watch, just make sure you hold on to your purse.
