Porno shoot uncovered at 21st century's first World Expo

TOKYO (AFP) - Five people have been questioned for allegedly shooting footage for a pornographic film inside a cable car at the World Exposition, a showcase of technology underway in Japan, police said.
The five suspects, who include an actress, could get up to 30 days in jail or a fine of up to 10,000 yen (91 dollars) for indecent exposure, police said.
"An actress exposed her upper body and an actor touched it inside a gondola in the one-minute scene," said a police spokesman in central Aichi prefecture where the 21st century's first World Exposition is taking place.
The scene was shot on the afternoon of May 2 but the case did not come to light until it was broadcast on a pay-per-view satellite channel as part of an hour-long late-night special on the exposition.
The Jiji Press news agency said the crew had intended to film a scene of sexual intercourse on the ground at the Expo but abandoned the plan because the site was swarmed with visitors during the holiday period in early May.
Police said they questioned a 33-year-old TV program producer, a 28-year-old director and a 31-year-old cameraman apart from the actor, 39, and the actress, 26. They all live in and around Tokyo.
Their names were withheld as the crime is considered a minor offense, the police official said.
The Expo 2005 has a theme of environmentally-friendly technology and features an array of robots and a frozen mammoth dug up in Siberia.
The six-month event, which has drawn a stream of foreign dignitaries, reached its target of 15 million visitors more than a month before it is due to end on September 25.

Buncha Expositionists.
I knew you were in Japan recently!!!
"If this cabre cal is lockin'..."
"An actress exposed her upper body and an actor touched it inside a gondola in the one-minute scene,".....
On second thought, that's too tame for you!!
Yeah, but touched it with what.
Get over here.
Good point! Let us know when you release the film!
How did I know you'd be at this thread!!!???
Sorry, but no-one touches my "gondala" except my wife....
NeverGore :^)
The mascots looks like communicable diseases.
Yes.
Even in Japan.
Wow, you are an idiot troll.
I guess that since garden slugs can mate, it doesn't take any intelligence to do so.
So, your post shows that you are on teh level of a garden slug.
If it was light rail, I'd suspect Willie Green.
And the "money shot" would be him holding up a Japanese newspaper showing 10,000 people "laid off".
