  2. Well, I think I may be the first to see it (who has posted) on here! Don't know where this 10.20pm Channel 4 thing has come from, but it has JUST been on Sky 1 (9.20). I actually came on here to say how AMAZING it is! The usual of people looking up, people running, shadows of the swarm everywhere. People on bikes cycling away from it. Camera panning in-between wrecks of buildings and some awesome shots of the ride! All the time the YMAS song playing, and it works really, really well!

  4. Like I said before, I'm just hoping there will be disabled access to both sides... Otherwise I may have to spite my legs and queue for 'the other side'.

    Hate to say it, but I doubt they will. I mean, it would be great for you if they did, but I honestly don't think they will, for the main reason... cost.

  6. I'd just like to pass on the experience a friend of mine had in this maze on Sunday.So they're going through the maze and then they walk into a scene where two actors are talking to each other, out of character and also, one of them is on their phone. As though embarrassed, the actor on their phone rips my friend from his group, pushes him around, saying he should have a sense of humour as it's the last day. They push him through staff areas, into other actors, they make him go back and do scenes again, he got knocked to the floor and repetitively told that he should have a sense of humour. He was in there for an extra 10 minutes.Sounds like they took things way too far, the actors in question should never have been employed to work there and I hope they never work in something like that ever again. My friend was in tears by the end of it.

    Thats awful! I hope he reported that to guest services! Something really should be done about that, that is something that the park really needs to be made aware of!I for one, if that happened to me, would be making sure that something got done about it. I mean that borderlines on harassment, maybe I'm over reacting, but I'm sure the press would love this!

    Heya everyone, I will be getting my annual pass next year, as I am getting a car in January. They journeys are a pain in the ass on the train, so I will be going enough to justify a pass. My question is does anyone know if Thorpe are running the BOGOF this year. I know they did last year, just before and over the closed season, and was wondering if they are this year, maybe it is an annual thing over the closed season?Thanks for anyones replies!

  8. Worst fault with the HBO special was actually that all the cut scene films were edited out to make room for the backstage stuff, they're brilliant and really pump up the excitement and atmosphere in real life. Also I Sky+'ed it last night, was it shown with adverts? When it premiered on HBO and I watched it there were no ad breaks, but from looking at the planner it looks like it was 25 mins longer on Sky so I'm guessing there were adverts?

    Yea, there were adverts. TBH there seemed to be a hell of a lot of them as well!

  9. I've got a few little questions :blush: my friend wants a Thorpe annual pass is it possible to go there buy the annual pass an use it on same day :)or is it best to get online or something ?

    Yes you can buy it there and use it the same day. I wouldn't say there is any real advantage from buying it online. Have fun with it! hahaha

  10. Hello! Planning a trip at the moment for the 27th of May (Friday)Was just wondering what the park should be like. Also, are the schools broken up by then? I know is gloucestershire they are still in on that date, just wondering about a bit closer to London!Thanks for any replies!

  13. I know a lot of people will disagree with me on this one, but if you are going with someone who is not going to be riding any rides, you may want to conciser an ultimate fastrack? £60 for unlimited fastrack all day. That Is what I would do if I was in your shoes, granted that you have the money that is...

  16. Mid-week, all year 11's will have finished their exams, many schools (private) will have broken up, and LOTS of school trips will be taking place. I'd expect 60mins+ for the coasters, 30-60 for the flats.

    Thank you :unsure:

  20. Not sure if they have made it more scary or you guys have thick skin, but I went in it today and found it absolutely terrifying! The whole group of people left after the bathroom scene through the entrance and while we were waiting to go in we saw loads of people coming out of it.

  23. You know, I am really hopeful for short queues this weekend. This week has been quiet along with opening weekend! I think that people are waiting for easter to be honest as the easter half term is quite early this year. Maybe I am just too hopeful! :)
