It's one of the most iconic rescues in cinema, but you haven't seen it like this.

In the latest of Disney's Star Wars: Galaxy of Adventures series, a collection of super short, kid-friendly versions of iconic Star Wars scenes, we're whipping through the rescue of all-round scoundrel Han Solo by his badass love, Princess Leia Organa.

Although Han dropped the whole "I know," bullshirt on Leia before he was frozen in carbonite on Bespin and taken to Jabba the Hut's palace on Tatooine, she's still the only kween who can get him outta there (with some help from your pals Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca of course).

It takes just one minute and seven seconds to flash through events from both The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, but it's an absolute delight — and uses original cast lines from Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford.
