I don't know, ride hosting usually requires high level acting when so much of the job is pretending to be interested in what guests are telling you.
Now you see, reports from two sources...it must be true.
I detest Boris Johnson as much as anyone else but I’m not sure that you should be sharing what he gets up to on a day out at a theme park without his consent.

Link for what was said above.
Interesting how it's the exact same preshow as before, no new video or audio retconning the story to explain Nemesis' closure, which would be really easy (and cheap) to do...
I feel as though there's going to be some backlash to it if the public are wondering in the queue thinking it's Nemesis, not knowing the actual ride is closed, it would only take 10-15 seconds of lore to explain that in the preshow to keep people up to date. They should get Simon Allen in his audio booth with one of the performers and dub over the existing preshow.
Something I thought we'd never seen again! Glad its coming back park will need it during peak times.
To be fair if someone is stood in a queue for an indoor ride a few hundred yards from where Nemesis, the outdoor inverted rollercoaster, is clearly being constructed behind walls with posters saying ‘Nemesis closed’ thinks that they are in fact, queuing for Nemesis, then I’m not sure that an amended pre-show is going to do the trick of explaining the difference to them.
That said, I did think they’d change it.

Maybe there is a planned new recording to go in and they are using the original footage and audio just to test to make sure things are working after all these years? Would be suprised they didn't retcon anything for Sub Terra though personally I'm always anti-retcon for various reasons.

I've heard a few people say that it will be opening in May, take that with a pinch of salt though.
If they are using the same pre-show video then it looks like the ride may well be back in it's original form, at least to begin with.
You would think there will be some tie in with the re-tracking though, I wonder if the ride will evolve throughout the season as more and more new track is installed. There was a pic taken last year of the pre-show screens on with a face on screen.
I’d LOVE this to be a masterpiece of trolling by Towers. “Hey, there’s a content creator nearby, switch those pre-ride screens on for a laugh and see what happens!” - never got to ride it originally as I largely despise these sorts of rides, but for the purposes of forum lurking happiness of never having to read another “is it or isn’t it”, I hope it does reopen soon so we can all move on. Just need Drayton to reopen Pirates and we can all go back to normal.
I doubt they’ll use that video when it reopens. Like mentioned they are probably just using that video for testing. Won’t want to spoil much either will they.
With all the new weird Phlanax videos that were going round when Nemesis was closing, with the new head of Phlanax etc, there is no way they won’t tie this ride in to the new story.
