As a 14-year-old teenage reporter, I recently had the incredible opportunity to watch Indiana Jones 5, and let me tell you, it was an absolute thrill ride from start to finish. Armed with my trusty notepad, I was ready to jot down my thoughts and share them with the world.
First things first, seeing Harrison Ford reprising his iconic role as Indiana Jones was a true treat. It’s remarkable to witness his portrayal of the adventurous archaeologist once again, showcasing his wit, charm, and undeniable charisma. Additionally, the return of other original cast members added a nostalgic touch to the movie, bridging the gap between the previous films and this new installment.

All while maintaining the joyful magic of this musical.

Exciting. Engaging. Extravagant. Disney On Ice at Wembley Arena is a must-see! I was unsure at first if two teenagers and their mother would enjoy a show like this, but before we knew it, we were introduced to all our favourite Disney characters on ice skates. The show really surprised me with the way the skaters traversed around the ice rink through the use of flips and lifts to bring the fantastical stories from the past 100 years to life as it toured the UK. However, the show is not just limited to ice skating, it also includes other acts like acrobats, stilts and a fly system.
