No.... For Cirque Du Freak they had a playlist of chart songs/circus music playing park wide. Pendulum sounded awesome on them speakers in amity!

Nah happens a fair bit from what I remember! Fright Nights I think it was, although they didnt let the park hit its full capacity if I remember rightly

I'm sure they would, but we are just a forum, to us they are guests =]

Nice find, interesting read! I dont think this years marketing is really much different to the previous couple, the main difference is the park has a strong brand across the board now which the park has needed for some time now. Obviously the real measurement of success will be if they keep getting people through the gates, and from what ive seen on my visits is they have been.

I also noticed that! But then the entrance still says it too, despite the big tire getting repainted for this year.

"Scooch - Maybe Tomorrow"

Read my trip report, you will see I said how I thought the new area looked pretty nice.. As do I when I visit, I havent said anything against what they have done this season Thanks for the advice I thought about this and drove economically from Chessington to Thorpe Park, I stuck to the speed limit and used my gears correctly. Thats very true, but judging by what people have said about Discos its not really somthing I'm badly wanting to ride, and am happy to wait till it has a quieter queue. Yeh! Well it was at 50 mins when I got there around 12:30/1:00 Everyone aloud there opinion, this all started from a tongue in cheek comment to keith and has been taken way OTT! To be honest when I heard it was 6000 I was stunned, felt alot busier in the areas I went in. And yeah, there is much at Chessington what thorpe dont provide, but the stuff what interested me, Chessington didn't provide and Thorpe Park did. As I said many times would of been different had I got hold of peoples !

See it sounds it, thorpe had alot more than that too, but 40/50 mins for cobra, or 20 mins for Detonator I know which one I would choose! By quiet I meant a dead week day!

I tried to call Peter around 10 times before giving up, its quite possible if we had walked around long enough would of found him, but its quite possible we wouldnt also! Where as going back to TP I could sort out my annual pass and ride rides we enjoy.Ill go back to chessington when its abit quieter.

You would think so but would also be very possible would miss you all day. As someone who favours thrill rides more, Chessington isnt my favourite park, but we had every intention of making an effort, I think the fact we drove all the way there proves this! Something to do isnt it =p Probably wouldnt have bothered with thorpe that day if it wasnt for some others there inviting me, and needing to sort out my annual pass would of probably stayed at cwoa abit longer..

Yes he is, but we both enjoy thrill rides more, which is something Chessington is unable to offer, so it would be kind of pointless us 2 staying, had we been got hold of others there then obviously it would be a different story, after all its all about the company..

So what was your comment on about

As I said in my TR, we couldn't get hold of anyone so we didnt really want to stay.....

I'm sure alot of people would do, and also sure alot wouldn't =p

If you say so Keith

I was on the ride too :mellow:And I doubt it, whilst it was different, the mad air time usually experienced is so much better!

Its not worked properly since 2006 now...

Err I think they would rather a ride what works well..

I was there for the 5 mins with Ricky on Saturday, but without being able to get hold of anyone decided to turn back and head to Thorpe, thats not to say Chessington was bad though.Wild Asia looks very nice and is very well done, the rides rethemes look fantastic in person and Kobra looks great, but 50 mins + for a Disko? No thanks.Apart from that the areas I did walk around look nice and refreshed, I also like the new entrance!

No it wasnt... sure it was unreliable all day but it was open for most of the day

Sadly no dispatch theme at the moment.

Indeed, the Inferno theme is now playing in the station again.. although the cannons dont sound to healthy at the moment!
