I don't think Eastern Express offer any notable quality improvement compared to Aramark/Merlin though. Whereas KFC at Thorpe at least has consistency of supply chain.

ever since the Lego House opened I’ve been expecting Lego to want to run more visitor experiences so makes sense for them to buy the Discovery Centres. Whereas there isn’t really another major aquarium operator to take over Sea Life.

Its not quite a "clean sweep", note the emojis show which place was won, its seven first place, two second and a third. Still a great achievement but given for most categories there are awards for first second and third it does mean a lot of places can talk about winning!

Did you not just ask for them to put it on your bill?

I suppose they have owned Merlin for twenty years and successfully merged them with the Tussauds Group with good initial results from that merger. its more recently its been a problem

Unfortuantly I doubt the front line ride staff have had training on "what to do if someone returns dead on the coaster" so their response is likely to wait for medical and first responders to arrive. They may well be shocked and no idea what the best course of action is.

Quite easy, take the lid off and drink without a straw.

"He cannae see man!" Still haunts me over 30 years later

They didn’t change the California ToT to Gaurdians because Twilight Zone is old, they didn’t change it because they wanted synergy with the current movie and this was easier/cheaper than building a whole new attraction. You say it’s being repainted to the OLD colours, so they are actually...

You could remove the IP and just have a Haunted Hotel and the Florida one would still be a great ride.

I would say this is because the hotels at AT are still a little too expensive. Although due to the inflation rising faster than their prices its not as bad as it was a few years ago. But in general I think the AT hotels have always been a little overpriced and definitely expensive. But the day...

Although all that is really stating is they built it for testing, not why Imagineering have made a custom designed flume ride that needs testing. Given lots of manufactuers have standard flumes and Disney already have flume rides in multiple parks, there has to be a unique element to this one...

Maybe there is some design so it can run better in low water levels, enabling the ride to operate without a major splashdown in the Winter?

Yes I think they are too cheap, as you say entry prices haven’t risen significantly in quite a long time but the costs in energy and staff to the park are going to be a lot higher than ten years ago. Considering Paultons charge £45 all year, that seems a fair price.

We just did KFC and it was predictably fine, but the kebabs did appeal, although might seem pricey if you don't have an AP. As Thorpe has KFC and Burger King they can't just offer the burgers and chicken that Alton and Chessington do, so they have kept up the focus on interesting options like...

Currently there is Forbidden Journey which is a Kuka arm and Monsters Unchained at Epic uses the same (or very similar) system, Gringotts which is a coaster with a motion base, Hagrids motorcycle is a coaster with launches and trick track sections. Then the Hogwarts Express train and the old...

I went to Thorpe Park for the first time since before the pandemic (I only went while it was Derren Brown Ghost Train once that's how infrequent my visits are) yet still noticed the cobwebs and lack of general cleaning and painting at Thorpe. Although yes I do agree it does mean you notice the...

Had a fun day at Thorpe today, first time since before the pandemic. Hyperia was a lot of fun, loved the airtime but it is a little short despite being Thorpe’s longest coaster and the splashdown brakes hit hard. All the best parts of Saw are still before the lift hill, that is a bit rough...

It’s still there, saw it today but listing to one end a lot so probably is almost sunk.
