The 5th Dimension
Probably what your house and every shop looked like in the 80's if you were around then :-PI can't really judge it as I haven't ridden but the idea of a TV robot factory whatever the hell it was sounds crap.

The Future Of Neptunes Kingdom
Tomb Blaster*Anyway, with regards to Neptunes Beach. I'd clear the whole lot and start again. Depth Charge needs massive refurbishing IMO its disgusting. Wet Wet Wet is also an eyesore. A nice little water coaster could work well if they gave it a proper Atlantis type theme. Would kind of tie in the two themes of Neptunes Kingdom and Port Atlantis which could be cool. I've heard that too, but if that did happen then thats due to the person operating the machinery obviously not looking what they were doing, and Thorpe should have aknowledged that it had damaged an effect, and put the effort into fixing it! Along with the rest of the broken scenery. Also simple things like the entrance sign lights not flashing.

Rameses Revenge
That may have been when it had its motors replaced or refurbished or god knows what, but either way, they were taken off.

The 5th Dimension
That is the Souk of Tomb Blasters entrance, right where you go into the building, it isn't nearly as open plan as that now. The walls on the right are still there in that colour but its a restricted area. The bit with the tv's is the smelly bit with the video and the theming. At the end of the staircase is the bottomless pit.I hope that makes sense!

I think it was more taking the chance to refurbish it while it was over in Holland being repaintd and stuff too, ready for it to be installed at THORPE PARK WORLD OF ADVENTURES.

The 5th Dimension
I never rode the 5th Dimension, I wouldn't remember it anyway as I was 3 when it was rethemed to Forbidden Tomb.It looks awful though if I'm honest. Espesically the horrific 80's interior design and fat screen TV's.Looks like someones office design went wrong.

I like the surfer thing the Fish has going on. "Oh dudes, we got a slight problem with our fish, and for the moment, he won't be flying!"They are a bit repetitive though, saying everything like 3 times :|

Am I also right in thinking it was the Thunder River theme? I swear I've seen a video of TR with that music in.

I didn't realise until now its 9 years old :-|I wish they'd get it properly fix and done up so it can run in Chessie standards again. At least then the huge queues will be worth something at the end.

Rameses Revenge
I don't consider a 1 hour break down quick. Considering in that hour it was down, 800 people could have ridden it.

Park Music
It's the 10 minute entrance track with the Thorpe Park theme on the end of it, which is the same as Quantums theme except its got an extra layer of percussion that Quantum doesn't have.I'm sad aren't I

Beaulieu Motor Museum
Oh god I went there when I was about 10 and nearly cried on the Monorail. Yes 10 years old. Shameful.

Rameses Revenge
The usual moan I have about Rameses is the hold at the end for the fountains, which Ripsaw doesn't have, and the fact its fountains are forceful enough to make ya feel like your gonna drown.

They probably don't want them or have room to store bits of crap.

Park Music
Yeah, that track hasn't been used since 2006 I think.I remember seeing it on iTunes somewhere with its artist name and stuff. </off topic>.Either way yeah it was quite nice music but it got annoying in the queueline.
