  1. Don't know what it is about it, but I've always found Chessington a loverly park to walk around and enjoy, more so than Legoland and in some ways Thorpe (shoot me!). In case anyone wonders, Merlin do invest in the park, as there's been lots of noticeable changes, although perhaps not qoute on the scale of Thorpe.
  2. Whilst I was skeptic to this idea originally, I'm gradually warming up to it and think it could be a decent support attraction. In terms of queue, there's only two things they can really do. 1/ cattle pen behind the bit where Fungle was (and seemed intact lastvyear). 2/ Reserve N ride or an equivalent try stem which requires a booking. 3/ both Will be interesting to see.
  3. Hex - The Legend Of The Towers (5) Nemesis (8) Oblivion (2) Nemesis+ Oblivion- As good as Blivvy is, it can't quite compare to a super class coaster and dark ride. We need to get the final

  6. I meant more so in a long term thing (turning back to the end of last year).
  7. I'm sticking to my point of both rides in the last two were deserving winners Surely Vampire is far more deserving of winning the Chessington ride as Slammer is winning the Thorpe one I'm not putting Slammer down but I just don't think it can be said to the best ride at Thorpe, Swarm or Stealth to win
  8. Rides Thorpe Could've added to make the line up even better X Inferno Storm Surge [ ] Quantum Vortex Detonator [seats missing] Just a thought

    Another great choice here Peaj, liking the lineup so far I often find my choices are the same in terms of variety. For example when I'm going somewhere on my playlist, one minute Katy Perry is playing, the next it may something from Iron Maiden and after that somthing from Disney [ Bare Necessities]
  10. YEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssss All Hail King Vampire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very happy this ride won, either were worthy of the reward, but Vampire is a true classic. Someone please do an anlysis of where everything was positioned on the rankings.
  11. Air (2] Hex - The Legend Of The Towers (6) Nemesis (7] Oblivion (5) Nemy|+ Air- its the weaker of the best
  12. Fury 2 Vampire 8 both are grear, but its hard to choose
  13. Air (4) Duel (0.1) Hex - The Legend Of The Towers (7) Nemesis (8) Oblivion (4) Nemy+ Duel- Thus game is well due a rest

  17. It's still an improvement none the less as surely going from no theming to a fair amount Of it is not a step backwards. We're not talking disney or Univerdal quality here, but in its current state it's definitely better. Beats Pirate's Burger Kitchen Hands down IMO.
  18. Bubbleworks (1) Dragon's Fury (8) Rattlesnake (5) Vampire (6) Fury+ Bubbles-
  19. Air (6) Duel (3) Hex - The Legend Of The Towers (6) Nemesis (5) Oblivion (5) Air+ Duel- 24 hour rule
  20. I'm pretty certain most of the seating here is juts tempory, considering the park only partially open at the moment and there is still at least another 3/4 weeks before the main 2015 season begins.

  22. Oki Doki then 1/ I don't like raw cheese 2/ I went to Legoland eight times in 2012 3/ My Favourite horror film isMy Bloody Valentine
  23. Photos of the newly refurbished Pizza Pasta have been released by Themepark Collective Looks great in my opinion, much better than Pizza Hut and if any further changes this season are as good as this one, I will be very happy.
  24. Number Three is the lie (Coasterdude is correct). I have been to another thrmepark outside the uk aside from Tivoli World; unfortunately though it still isn't a big one as the other place is Boudwijan Sea Park in Belgium which I went to on a school trip in year 8 (and they were playing disney songs around the park too ). I did go to Oakwood in 1998 as part of a family holiday in Wales, but was sadly too little to ride Megafobia, which I thankfully got to do in 2013 (an amazing beast she is). Yes, I did not visit Thorpe between after 2001 due to the family at the time considering Legoland more family friendly (none of us knew about Chessington then) and only returning in 2006 when I found out about the place again.
