The entrance to the projector room looks so sad and knackered Thing is, that's what happens when budgets are cut and you make the exterior of an entrance from plywood.

You're a lifesaver PS. Where we going for the meal?

The Thorpe Park sign at the entrance had been removed, I saw in a vlog - is a new one in place yet? ?

If it isn't gobbling up queues then it makes sense not compounding the issue by limiting fast-track - so if that's the case then that's a good decision.

Fair play Thorpe - £10 for 4pm-10pm is a good shout - heck I might even go myself Interesting that DBGTROTD is only included in the very top fast-track package - I guess that means the queues will be kept down (ish).

The caption underneath the photo on the itv article should read "Roller coaster tester Jordan Middleton 27 is one of the first people to experience the new ride sitting in the station of 'The Walking Dead: The Ride'"

Glad I'm not visiting until April 20th so the crowds will have subsided - that must be a quiet week as the park isn't open all week - have double checked it's not a school holiday obviously

Nothing like forward planning eh?

If you look reaaaaaalllly carefully you can see where it used to say Thorpe Park on the front of those amazing trains. Ahem. Second only to Disney, lads!

That would be AWESOME Mr. Creek

I'm only going on the 24th to ride Loggers, Slammer, X & Rocky Express tbh so will be heading straight to guest services if any of these rides are not available.

Anyone planning on going on a 2-4-1 deal? I don't have a MAP because.... I don't

How did I miss that SW8 video parody? Awesome work, so spot on

Even Thorpe wouldn't have XNWOTWDTR open for just 1 year and then bin it... probably.

I'll buy my first ever MAP if there is

Wonder if we'll have a little "The Walking Dead The Ride Shop NOW OPEN" sign outside for a few months a la DBGTROTD.

"It’s 15 out of ten on the scare scale.” (John Burton, Thorpe Park) Look forward to having a t-shirt with that printed on it in time for Ministry of Sound meet-up

BREAKING: Person at Merlin HQ presses button too early: https://www.thorpepark.com/rides/the-walking-dead-the-ride If the trains look like the concept art then that will be nice I suppose. Also, the X Page is still on the line up - with Walking Dead The Ride (Now to be termed as XNWOTWDTR) of course #1 on the rides page.

Today's the day lads! Jart and I have taken the day off work in anticipation of the announcement and we're holding a street party in our road for the arrival of the Safe Zone.

Looking forward to it, and to finally getting back on Loggers!

Got mine yesterday - open dated unlimited VIP fastrack for £48 is a bargain.

Get ready for "Ride on a wave of light and sound to the Safe Zone whilst you try and escape the zombies of the Walking Dead"

For this week, yes - but expect a change of direction probably around 10am on Monday after their first cup of coffee, and find some more family flats open on a rotational basis to appear dumped outside the Safe Zone in 2018

It's literally what everyone wanted, awesome news.

Big reveal on The Safe Zone tomorrow, needless to say Jart and I will be too excited to sleep tonight!!!!!!!!!
