The chandeliers are back! Brilliant.

That would certainly make sense. I see the Hyperia shop is now open. I get it, make money but it's giving me DBGT PTSD.

SAW is planned to be closed on Monday and Tuesday, wonder if this is for Hyperia access?

Apparently it's an air compressor

After watching a minute and a half of them patting themselves on the back for how well opening day went it made any apology feel insincere. As @Mark9 said, rubbing noses in those of us who weren't able to attend on the day. The sole focus of the video should've been regarding the 2 week closure with no mention of anything else.

From my understanding, this isn't related to the current closure of the ride. Despite it not being planned, the park are taking the opportunity to continue working on the area where possible.

Any ideas what that is? Lift motor/drive wheel?

I don’t know about that - she apologised several times in that video.

I mean it was a really good day but it does feel like they are rubbing everyone else's noses in it.

Thorpe joining in on the classic YouTube non-apology video train. Spent more time going on about how good opening day was than anything else.

Spelling isn't always Thorpe's socialz strong point. Maybe now is a good time to bring out a Fright Night's construction video to divert attention and think of more positive times xoxo

I do feel so bad for everyone involved. They got it over the line (just) on time, and launched it perfectly - now this… Hopefully they’ll get it back up and running soon.

Someone has claimed something to do with the lift chain. Which given that we've seen engineers on said lift hill and it was making a racket when open isn't a big stretch. Someone's put a camera in front of her whilst making a cuppa?

We will be interrupting this broadcast for an announcement from the Queen very shortly 😁

At least it means the YouTubers can reopen their construction updates series. Wonder if it’s a part that’s required or an engineering issue comprising safety?!

Was off to the Northern line m8. Yes - was thinking the same - surely they will have to pull adverts or reissue with extra text that says "Opening soon" at the bottom... Feel like we need a statement from our Queen, Alice, to quell the rumours and explain what's going on. This is the only way the situation can be fixed.

Omg I was on that escalator yesterday too! Did you go down the abba tunnel or were you heading for the northern / Bakerloo line!

Ouchhhh Gutted for them! I've had a load of adverts for Hyperia the last couple of days, they need to look at pulling all the ads if they still don't have an opening day in site

Just announced - they cannot commit to opening before 8th June. Yikes! Most definitely not a sick one. What an absolute disaster - and I don't think that's an exaggeration. Still, will give them a chance to put more plants in.

Is there any inkling of what might be wrong with it?

Probably be tomorrow and very last minute unless its 100% fixed. They'll be desperate for it to reopen for any of Half Term.

I was waiting for some PP insight, much appreciated. Will my visit for 11th June be OK, in the form of a song please? One would imagine that if Hyperia is not planned to open on Thursday, they'd be announcing that by park close today?

I wanted your rush but look what it's done for us, all our dreams have come to nothing, who would have believed all the laughter that we shared would be a memory? I cannot count the pounds you've cost us, if we could have seen and do you ever think of Fri, and how it used to be? oh, I know you're somewhere else right now, fixing something else, no doubt, well it's closed, tomorrow, ain't it too, too, bad? are you breaking someone else's ride? 'cause you're taking our cash where you are, well it's closed, tomorrow, ain't it too, too bad 'bout us? I wanted your rush but we got uncertainty, we tried so hard to open you, all the good it did us now the fences round the park remind me of how you were, everything is just the same, but our money is gone and do you ever think of Fri, and how it used to be?

The advertising is in full force on the Underground too....
