When Disney on Ice took on Frozen as its theme it could only mean one thing.

Every year we find the ice show an amazing experience - and when it teamed up with one of our all time favourite films it was definitely not to be missed.

I was a little worried it would not manage to pull off the magic of the film but how wrong I was.

The show starts with a warm up followed by a set by the usual Disney characters - Mickie and Minnie joined by a host of Disney prince and princesses plus favourite characters including those from Toy Story and Finding Nemo - perfect to get the audience in the mood for the main event.

If ever a Disney film was made for the ice rink then this was it - and it kept the audience spellbound from start to finish.

As usual the scenery, costumes and special effects were second to none - a mass of glittery delights which drew gasps from the delighted crowds - including one of the best monsters we'd ever seen.

But it was the amazing ice dancing by the talented cast which was the highlight of the evening - all accompanied by the well-known tunes which were belted out by thousands of little voices.

Queen Elsa was stunning as she took control of the ice while sister Anna gave the best performance I've seen in more than a decade of Disney on Ice, captivating the audience with her graceful moves.

My six-year-old loved Kristoff but Sven was the all round family favourite - we loved his cheeky style of grabbing the attention of the audience while performing on four legs.

The show - which is a trimmed down version of the award-winning movie - was produced by Feld Entertainment which as usual get it just right.

Every year Disney on Ice hits the spot with ever-improving sets, stories and performances. This year was no exception - our best night out in a very long time.
