Olaf go!

Back in the day I used to watch a programme called Olaf Go! On Weiss-blau TV in Munich. The premise was simple; contestants would call the programme and have a chat with the presenter. Then we would all watch a piece of video, from the driver's perspective, of a car approaching a junction. The video would stop and the contestant would try to predict the direction that the vehicle would take at the junction; links, rechts, oder geradeaus. The presenter would shout "Olaf go!" and that would signal the video to run and show us the outcome. Gripping TV, I'm sure that you'll agree. I'm surprised that it's not been snatched up by any of the big boys and, surprisingly, I can't find any clips on YouTube.

That was all a long time before Disney created this Olaf; he's from Frozen, I am reliably and insistently informed. I went for breakfast with him and a few others. Some of them are just back from Disneyland Paris and are full of stories of meeting princesses and going on rides. It was lovely spending time with them.
