    Look good, they have a strange bounce to them though.

    This is almost as bad as if the numbers were the other way round. Why on earth are Thorpe so consistently inept at queue times? It really is not a difficult thing.

    Where's everyone's money going this afternoon? I'm thinking shutthefrontdoor, druids nephew, just a par. Expect all to have been shot by 18:00 then!
  4. If only there was a system where no one had to queue and everyone could go to the ride at the time they could get on it...
  5. What a massive fail. How did they not realise this would be a problem? As I had static bus on my visit I thought I might go back at some point to get a go on it, certainly won't bother going again now though.

    You kids will never know the pain...
  7. Although you are completely right of course, it's at the point now that even a nostalgic old thing like me would rather they got shot of all the knackered stuff (ie most things) and scaled it down to the few things they can do well, then build it back up from there.

    That's a shame, I like the not knowing. Looks like a good film though.

    Haha! I've booked, but had no email. Midnight Special?
  10. I think/hope so.
  11. Those entrance huts look nasty. Is Bubble station lit up by your camera, or is it lit really badly in person? Absolutely loving Ashok tribute though.

    Not a ride as such, but tragically a young girl has died in Harlow when some sort of bouncy castle blows away in storm. 2 arrested. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-35906226
  13. It's an experience then I suppose, but a poorly thought through one. If we have all those staff here funded at the expense of Hex opening then someone somewhere needs a stern talking to and a gentle slap. How long then before we have two queues, one station with VR the other one without, dispatching 2 trains to each VR one?
  14. All these people had just bought fastrack tickets to the sale, it's the Merlin way! I thought it was damn obvious from when it was announced that this stunt would piss if more people than it pleased with such a limited number. And so it came to pass. Shop and merch looks stunning.
  15. With Alton queue line shops being changed to vending machines I'm surprised to see a shop at all. Machines make more sense to me in a queue as they can be open regardless of how by it is, have no staffing costs and sell the same stuff anyway.

    You get a lot lot less of that here than other fan sites imo, and when it does crop up it usually is at least in some way informative.
  17. I imagine they've all been redeployed to a row of Galactica with some alcohol wipes. Actually entertaining anyone seems pretty low on the priorities these days.
  18. That sucks. Are they still selling fastrack for their reduced capacity per chance?!
  19. Depends how much time is spent with some VR contraption covering your face! Does anyone know how they are doing the Galactica photos, is it just a standard green screen thing?

    Shall we bring up the B&M wing 4d coaster again? If the earlier rumours were true it's been in development for years, it must be ready by now!
  21. pluk replied to Rich's topic in UK Attractions
    Got mine too! Considering taking tickets for later in the year, I imagine these preview days will be crazy busy.
  22. pluk replied to JoshC.'s topic in General Discussion
    It's a great decision. It was a mess as it was, and the best seats are the rear ones facing forwards. They were forceless in comparison when reversed. Looking forward to getting back on those seats!
  23. ...returns? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-35805070 LOL

    Because it's your land? You see that Angry Bird? That's you that is.
