0:07:12 > 0:07:15presenters and your host. We've only got five minutes,

0:07:15 > 0:07:18so get ready for your Blue Peter adventure.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25We are here in London because, later tonight, Disney On Ice will be

0:07:25 > 0:07:28presenting the Magical Ice Festival,

0:07:28 > 0:07:31in this massive arena.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33This show is epic.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Visiting 29 cities,

0:07:35 > 0:07:38covering a total of 12,000 miles.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42This ice extravaganza is truly magical.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45And guess who's got a starring role? That's right, me.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49And, in traditional Blue Peter fashion, I've got a day to learn.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52So in just ten hours, I must attempt a routine

0:07:52 > 0:07:54and skate like the pros in tonight's show.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57I've got no time to waste. It's Anna and Elsa!

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Well, maybe just a minute. I know what we need to do.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Let's take a selfie!

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Enough of that. Let's lace up.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Helmet on, I'm ready.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17It's Radzi On Ice.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18Off we go, then!

0:08:18 > 0:08:21This is me going. This is me going.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24- OK, we're going to need some work here.- Yeah, we are!

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Performance director Jackie has the unlucky job of trying to train me.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31Can you tell I haven't done this since I was 11?

0:08:31 > 0:08:34Oh, dear! Hang on. Hang on!

0:08:35 > 0:08:39I've stopped. Jackie, what did you think of my warm-up?

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Um, I think we have a little way to go.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Yep. You're being very, very polite.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46What's the first thing that I need to learn?

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Well, I think, first of all we need to teach you how to stop,

0:08:49 > 0:08:51- so I don't have to stop for you. - Right. OK.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54I'm going to take one push forward and then we're just going to drag

0:08:54 > 0:08:58our back foot. And...turn your foot up.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01Do you know what? Every part of my body is trying to stop me doing...

0:09:01 > 0:09:05what I'm meant to - I can't even speak, I'm that unbalanced.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08It should be easy. All I have to do is stop without spinning.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13- Oh, almost!- Aw, without your hand, it goes pear-shaped.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16This is definitely tougher than it looks.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19HE GROANS

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Argh!

0:09:21 > 0:09:24It's so frustrating. The very first thing I've been taught to do,

0:09:24 > 0:09:26I can't quite do it.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29I keep spinning and I need to learn, and time is ticking.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Hang on, I think I've cracked it.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Well, sort of. Yes!

0:09:34 > 0:09:39- Jackie, I was quite pleased with that.- It was better, it was better.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42But I was starting to realise that to keep up with these guys,

0:09:42 > 0:09:44I'd have to raise my game.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Time to pull a Radzi special.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51And that wasn't it.

0:09:51 > 0:09:55Jackie, this is a great example of one of those things that is so much harder than it actually looks.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Is there any way I can kind of cheat a little bit, perhaps?

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Well, we do have a bit of a secret weapon for you.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03You're going to be pushing a prop round the ice this evening.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06So we're going to have you help with the cart ride for the show.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Bring out the cart!

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Look at that!

0:10:11 > 0:10:14OK, let's have you on the cart.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17This is definitely achievable.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20I'm loving this. Yeah!

0:10:22 > 0:10:24And remember your stop.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27- Look at that stop with the cart. - Yes!

0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Very good.- High five!

0:10:33 > 0:10:37It's almost showtime, and while the ice gets ready, so must I.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39I've been trying my best to skate like a star,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42now I just need to look like one. Michael, could you measure me up,

0:10:42 > 0:10:44- please?- Sure, let's have your arms up.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51Oh, yeah!

0:10:51 > 0:10:55I look the part. But now it's just time for me to get in the zone.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58This is my moment.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01There's one Radzi, one cart

0:11:01 > 0:11:03and literally no ability whatsoever.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08And let's not forget all the people.

0:11:08 > 0:11:09CHEERING

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Can you hear that?

0:11:11 > 0:11:15That means I'm about two minutes from going on.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18And as the show starts, I'm beginning to get excited.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Bring it on!

0:11:20 > 0:11:23MUSIC: I've Got A Dream from Disney's Tangled

0:11:27 > 0:11:29This is fantastic.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32I might not be the best skater, but it feels amazing taking part.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36MUSIC CONTINUES

0:11:46 > 0:11:48Put your hands in the air!

0:11:49 > 0:11:52APPLAUSE

0:11:52 > 0:11:55That's it. I've done it. The performance is over.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Jackie, that was so much fun.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02I still can't skate very well, but I enjoyed it so much.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04That was brilliant. I hope you had fun,

0:12:04 > 0:12:07because you looked like you were having a lot of fun. It was great.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11- So you're happy?- I'm very happy. - High five.- High five.- Job done.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14But do you know what? I think I'm going to leave it to the professionals.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Join in every Thursday on CBBC.
