Waratte Iitomo final episode special - 31st of March

If you guys didn’t know already, Waratte Iitomo, hosted by Tamori, is ending after 32 years. Therefore, a special broadcast will take place on the 31st of March and will feature the regulars that have appeared over the years of the program. Downtown themselves, having been once regular members at one point, are probably going to attend.

[quote:31xu3bqz]フジテレビ系「笑っていいとも!」(月~金曜正午)の最終回が3月31日に決まり、「グランドフィナーレ特大号」と題したゴールデンタイムの生放送特番で32年の歴史に幕を下ろすことが28日、分かった。東京・新宿のスタジオアルタで正午スタートの通常番組を生放送した後、台場の同局に場所を移して司会のタモリ(68)をはじめ、新旧レギュラー陣が大集合。最終回にふさわしい豪華ゲストも登場し、盛大なフィナーレを迎える。(サンケイスポーツ)[/quote:31xu3bqz]

This chunk of the article pretty much says that it will be a live broadcast from the studio. I think ‘32年の歴史に幕を下ろすことが28日’ means that the 32 years of history, or looking back at it will start on the 28th of March, which would be the last Friday of the month, though I am not particularly sure whether my translation is correct.

Nevertheless, sure to be a load of tears and guests coming about when the 31st approaches.

Perhaps the format will be something like this?
I found this vid on yt, from a previous year’s FNS 27hr tv special, where Downtown appeared as guest. This is the waratte ii tomo part, and a vtr was shown of some of Downtown’s time on waratte ii tomo
