They are auditioned in August/ September, I have been to an audition :) entertainment roles audition throughout the year and some of the main season guys work Scarefest but the Ents cast triples for SF.

You might have heard ents auditions which used to include sub-terra

@AliceHL91 look up "Alton Towers Resort Careers" on FB, they post when the Scarefest auditions are on :)
 
It seems that the worst of the impact must have happened in the middle of the car as this is where Leah and Vicky were sitting. I hope they're both still recovering well

In other news has anyone seen this?

Seriously how many years did it take them to clock on to this?! I love how they still manage to mention the crash in an unrelated story. Clutching at straws much?!

Whilst I can understand why people would be upset. It wouldn't have made even The Mirror if Alton hadn't
had all this bad press recently with the horrible incident.

But judging by the articles poll being an even split above and Merlin's quote will probably make me believe they'll stay for the season, but like most shirts. Not come back/be redesigned for the following season after sales, and for a way to get the best of both worlds by keeping it up whilst the hype still surrounds the story but then sweeping it under the rug.

Last time I remember Towers getting any press this bad was that grandad outraged over The Nemesis epipen... in The Mirror. I think its too soon for a total ramp up in marketing this year, but Scacefest to run as normal but I'm doubtful of a new maze still. 50-50 like that poll infact.
 
Tbh I think Merlin couldn't care less about the t shirts. I can't see them even withdrawing them next season

Wait... nemesis Epi-pen?:confused:
 
Yeah it was before then. I think they're more likely to have a frog problem now more than anything with the state of the smiler queue!
 
AT still have wasp problems from time to time :)

I presume the pen in question though is the Nemesis syringe pens that used to be sold - or possibly still are.

But as has sub-terra. What's the problem with that do we know?

EDIT: Never mind, probably just a slight 'technical problem' with the website. Refreshing the page brought them both back.
