GWR - Five Go On Adventures

 

I first noticed these wonderful short advertisements for the Great Western Railway at the cinema. The adventures of the Famous Five can all be found on YouTube or elsewhere on the net. They just take me back to when I was young, although Mother was very much against anything by Enid Blyton. But my children loved them?

Five Go on a Great Western Adventure

The first of these short films was produced in 2017.

Five and the Missing Jewels

Following the success of the first episode, came the next adventure in 2019.

Five Get There First

In 2023, the gang are seen off by George's parents who race them by car to their destination. Guess who wins.

Five and the Thrilling Engagement

Then this year came their latest adventure with about a lost ring. In cinemas and on TV now.

I thought there might be another in the series when I spotted an advertisement in The Sunday Times for "Five Steal the Show". However it is only a teaser for "the wider campaign that highlights unexpected destinations including enjoying a show at the Royal Albert Hall".
