Shawn Watson After blowing up the prototype enemy plane in the last installment Indy is given the task of convincing some Austrian count to give in to peace and end WWI early. He's partnered up, almost pointlessly, with two very, very annoying sidekicks. I wanted to punch my TV screen they were so irritating. After several unscenic train journey's he ends up in St. Petersburg where he has already made friends with many people (leading to some confusion as they're never properly introduced) and has the chore of translating Russian propaganda in order to find out when "the uprising" will begin.There's no adventure in this entry, despite the fact that "adventures" appears twice in the title. It's the most boring Young Indy yet. I can't believe that Vic Armstrong and Simon Wincer directed it. Where's the action?

Little-Mikey "The Adventures of the Young Indiana Jones" have every bit as much of the fun and excitement as the Indiana Jones movies.Unless I am mistaken, I do believe that this episode, when aired on TV, began and ended with a segment featuring a very old Indiana Jones. On the DVD, this segment is missing.In the final scene, the very old Indiana Jones is looking at an exhibit on the October Revolt, commenting that the exhibit was incorrect.A museum employee, assuming that the old Indiana Jones is just an old fool who doesn't know what he's talking about, asked him what made him so sure that the picture was taken in July, vice October.He replied "See that blurred smudge? That was me!"

Alain English Still working for French Intelligence, Indiana Jones (Sean Patrick Flannery) is dispatched to Austria where he must help it's beleaguered Emperor (Patrick Ryecart) make a deal with the Allies that could end the war. Later on in Russia, Indy is caught between his bosses at the Intelligence Service and a group of friends of his in the Bolshevik revolution...The first story is a brilliant mix of both intrigue and action. Indy can only watch helplessly as the Austrian Emperor is pressured by a crafty diplomat (Christopher Lee) into lessening his demands on the German Kaiser, blunting the deal for peace. Trying to escape the country, Indy must outrun the Austrian secret police, led by the sinister Prussian (Joss Ackland in a wordless but still effective role). The last sequence on-board a train is especially thrilling and suspenseful.In Russia, the script offers some solid insights into the workings of communism and revolutionaries, and Roger Sloman in a one-scene appearance gives an excellent reading of Lenin. The inevitable tragic finale is also very well-done.More great stuff from Indiana Jones.

nic20286 I have seen the majority of these and would agree they are for TV but however they were released on VHS first where my dada after a bday present enjoyed it and for some cheap reason the tape got chewed so unlucky for me i wasn't able to get the same copy which resulted in me just about viewing the whole series i enjoyed them seeing parts of the world and watching indy in a young stage sean is a fantastic actor who desever all the credit for this fantastic performance. hands up to lucas you may have been looking for a quick buck but it was good to see. i also enjoyed watching them on Sunday morning after playing golf with my dad tucking in to the bacon sarnies and seeing what indy was up too,
