As with the Big One, the weather does have a greater effect on hypercoasters. Some of the tests look like the train is going to valley it's that slow. Surely the lifthill you think would be solid being a very conventional design. I heard rumour there were issues with people leaning on the...

I'm curious as to what is going on with Hyperia. It doesn't look like a very technically complex ride on the surface. (Compared to a ride like Voltron)

It sounds very positive, I hope with them being quite a big household name it helps with maintaining support from the locals and authorities. Would be a massive win for UK tourism and jobs, not merely just another UK park.

This is amazing. I'm just getting into 3D printing myself and learning Blender.

Sorry if this has already been shared but it is a brilliant documentary (fittingly released this saturday) made by Peter (Euro Theme Park Archives) which has such amazing footage, interviews and a tour with Wardley himself. I know a lot of work went into this so it would be great to visit the...

First look inside the endless restaurant ride. Looks great if you’re a food junkie! From: https://youtu.be/MEMFS_fqmxM

I hope when restrictions are lifted, people continue some of the new habits going forward like having hand sanitiser readily available in shops & venues, hand washing and feeling less hesitant / self conscious about wearing a mask in public when you catch a cold.

The main thing it shows to me is that the London Resort is at least something that has the attention of Merlin if nothing else.

I understand your point, but surely it is the planning inspectorates job to ensure the application process is done properly and fairly. Not the interested parties having to moan to the inspectorate that they’re not doing it properly.

Merlin have sent a letter of concern over the planning process for the London Resort. Most people seem to agree this comes across as anti competition. In a way it does show how Merlin thinks The London Resort is now a credible threat and not just an investors wet dream. Now it’s got Merlins...

I could see DBGT working as a small Dungeons style attraction if / when Derren Brown is removed. Does Thorpe really need to aim at families when Merlin have Chessington and Legoland in such close proximity? I think Thorpe just need a solid, originally themed coaster like Wickerman at Towers.

I think budget and restrictions are a big factor in the UK. Although Nemesis may have not been designed the same if they could have built higher rather than lower. For me Stealth is one of the most thrilling coasters in the UK but Nemesis is better as an overall experience. As for the future...

Just done Black Mirror today. It feels very much like a modern fun house. The layout changes so it is genuinely disorientating. And it has some good effects. I can see this being very popular for a “walkthrough” attraction actually.

DBGT just has an unreliable, expensive transit sytem & VR with unconvincing graphics. They should have got a horror game developer to do the story & graphics IMO. I'm convinced there is still a long term place for traditional rides with theming, lighting, smells, animatronics & effects. VR can't...

I guess Black Mirror is watching you maybe from the moment you enter the queue? o_O

What's wrong with it? I love the grimey theming.

I think we've reached breaking point where if we don't open in a managed way, a lot more people are going to loose their jobs. I think many businesses are reaching the end of their financial reserves now.

Safe to say Salt & Vinegar is the favourite. So far Prawn Cocktail takes second place and Salted for third.

Got a mulipack of Walker's (Hopefully without 'Rona) Pickle flavour which are really nice. Similar to salt & vinegar.

I would have put more flavours but thats all I could add to the poll!
