I remember it did this after the fright nights in 2008 for the last week of the year, but once the 2009 season began it was back to the 2007 loading theme. I hope it stays as I prefer it so much more.Edit: I found a video on youtube of it playing pre 2006 loading theme at this time just after fright nights in 2008 (Saw construction is in background).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ghy7XN8z8k4

It is really funny to here the mixed reactions on this ride. It can be crap one day and then amazing another time. For me I have had mainly brilliant insane rides. I think for me it was crap just once this year (out of about 12 rides).When you say "a return of the loading music" do you mean the pre2006 theme below? http://media.musicofmerlin.com/thorpe/lostcity/samurai/samurai_loading06.mp3

I think it is "The call to Adventure" theme that they use at Market Square. See below.http://media.musicofmerlin.com/cwoa/cwoa_calltoadventure.mp3

Maybe they are going to turn it into a horror ride. Professor Burp: Rise from the Dead or something. If only!

When I went to Blackpool everybody was searched as standard at Pleasure Beach. I think it should be the same here, rather than the random searches.

For me Quantum is absolutely fine. I can handle practically any ride except for Zodiac (Enterprises). If I went on more than three times I would definately feel ill.

We have only had a couple of cold days over the last week or two. It seems to be actually quite mild for this time of year. For example London's max temp today is 16 degrees (tomorrow is supposed to be top temp of 18), which is much warmer than it should be this time of year.

Wow, that is brilliant. Works really well.

Just thought I would mention that Samurai was suffering with zeroing issues today. It took almost 5 minutes at one point to find its positon to lower. Had a fantastic ride on it however.

The music here was fantastic again today. The whole area thumping out the Nemesis Inferno Theme just like it did in 2003. Then it became very atmospheric at night when the music changed to Fright Nights music (one of few areas with its own FN music)However very disappointed that the red lights were not on and the Mist is off or not working. It would have been great at night with the mist.

Just thought id mention what I noticed was different about it. The four supports seem to be even more silver in colour than before and the main arm has bits of white over the brown bits. Its much smoother when lowering now. Before as it was lowering it would look like it was going to go back up again 3 or 4 times as it lowered. It only does this once now.
