    The World of David Walliams: General Discussion

    Come to think of it, what with the new drop towers in CBL frog hopper is likely to be removed also, leaving little left in the area. This could suggest they are clearing it. It may actually make sense to just treat the space as an expansion to dark Forrest, with a he dungeons opening, the area...

    Galactica vr to stay or not?

    Since 2016 I've always been of the mind that common sense will prevail eventually. VR was never going to work long term, but gave the park some positive publicity when it needed it. In time I'd suggest the ride will be re-themed once more, though still retain the space theme with a new name...

    The I Feel Happy Topic!

    Not posted for ages, been double busy lately! Wardley has just had his 5th birthday this year! I wonder if he knows he's got a cat named after him? :tearsofjoy:

    Channel 4 2018 Alton Towers Documentary

    I actually really enjoyed hearing the stories of enthusiasts, how they came to love what they do. I’ve never been on a meet up so never met anyone in person, but it seems, we’ve got more in common than just theme parks. Georgia’s story particularly resonated! Props to C4 for that. Well done...

    First SW to be Removed?

    You’d never get either of those, or anything like them built at Chessington. From what I gather, vampire only just made the cut & dragon's fury is in the only location which isn’t so close to residents to cause complaints. They’d be lucky to get a Rollerskater model. I don’t see any of towers...

    First SW to be Removed?

    Realistically, TH13TEEN will probably be the first SW to go. The ride has always had problems with downtime, usually to do with the drop section. It doesn’t appear to attract the crowds that much these days either. Thing is, the concept of it was brilliant, but poorly executed. The outdoor...

    Why Not Multistorey?

    You could actually just put it on sunken land to lower the height, and use the excavated soil to create banks surrounding it, on which vegetation could be planted. At least that way you don’t feel like your parking in a dungeon. You’d get a good 6 storeys easy without going over tree height...

    Why Not Multistorey?

    Bit of an odd topic, but having been looking at some satellite imagery of some theme parks on google earth, you can't help but notice the quite frankly insane amount of space give to car parking. Just endless ground covered in asphalt. It both restricts space for attractions, and is just...

    The World of David Walliams: General Discussion

    Honestly think the area is crying out for a steampunk theme. It’s got the suitable architecture and everything! There’s a decent sized dark ride building too and pretty much everything can be easily re-themed to fit in. The area worked as a “street” and should be returned to such. With some...

    Park Map

    Massive thread bump here, but might as well use existing topic. The latest Carbuncle: Year after year I hope we get a new map design, instead we get this botched stuff. Theres at least three different graphical styles going on here. Everything just looks like an afterthought. I feel theres...

    Nice to see they are investing in the entrance plaza. However, I do feel that replacing human interaction with machines is a little sad! It is the first impression of the park you get after all...

    The Sinking Ship: (Un)Love Letters to Merlin

    I wouldn’t actually be opposed to a mass petition or protest to get these slimy characters into gear. They forget that what is their business is also something the public holds dear. And treating customers with blatant disrespect is abhorrent.

    The Sinking Ship: (Un)Love Letters to Merlin

    Its something Merlin are very good an unfortunately. Being sly, but remaining within their "terms and conditions" I worked for them once upon a time (SEALIFE Manchester) after a lengthy selection process. Until only a week in, I was being sent home early due to "low visitor turnout" at last...
