  1. They aren't saying when it'll reopen, they are just saying until further notice. I doubt it'll be open for a while.
  2. I'm sure the bus pass thing will be fine. When I collected my annual pass earlier on this year, they didn't ask me for any form of ID.
  3. Can't believe I've only been to Thorpe once this year :o

  4. I know they let people with Friends and Family tickets in for ERT, so I assume they will let the £10 tickets in as well
  5. Alton towers commented on someones post on Facebook...
  6. Oh dear, prepare for another article.
  7. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/alton-towers-accident-two-more-5864073 Both rides are now open.
  8. Nope that's not true, it was closed for 1 day (last Friday) but since then it's opened every day

    2 rotations each side? When I heard of an awful cycle, I didn't realise it was that bad.
  10. Not sure if it's been said, but Sub terra is closed due to a design update, quoted from Alton towers facebook page. Interesting.
  11. Yeah I guess. And if they have added new safety protocols like they have with Rattlesnake and Fury, staff would have to be re-trained.
  12. According to the theme park guide, Saw has been testing today!
  13. Just watched the whole thing and like already said, that women was horrible. Ignoring what he was saying, and kept saying the same thing. Felt sorry for Varney in that situation, but he did a good job.
  14. They are however closed today, according to the queue times - http://www.chessington.com/plan/today-at-chessington.aspx Strange how they've decided to close 2 rides which aren't even by the same manufacturer, but I can see why. Strange they were open yesterday though.
  15. It seems the park have been giving a free return to the park as Saw is closed.
  16. I saw on social media the other day they said you can still complete the big six challenge, as they would create a QR code for you to scan to complete it. Strange they seemed to of scraped the big six challenge now.
  17. How did you find this out?
  18. Just for anyone interested, this is the Smilers computer system.
  19. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/11646279/Alton-Towers-Smiler-ride-crash.html Video of people describing what happened. Sounds like the car did stop at the top of the lift.
  20. Not good news, hope everyone is ok. 4 people are seriously injured apparently. What I don't understand is why a car was running empty when it had a queue? Was there a problem with this car, hense why it crashed?
  21. Has anyone on here been in late August? With the express pass, what times roughly would you expect to queue?
  22. Yes you get in the park for free with an annual pass, so no need for the 2 day ticket. You also receive discount for staying at the shark hotel if you have an annual pass.
  23. From my experience at Thorpe, I find the queue time boards to be generally inaccurate. I never really judge the queue by the time, but through the length now. Just from the last time I was at Thorpe, Inferno stated 15 mins for the last hour when we were staying in our seats, walk on. Rush was on 25 mins all afternoon, it was no more than 10. Saw stated 30 mins, look round the corner to find it's walk on. It's something I think they need to work on, updating queue times. I personally have never seen anyone update them on tablets, I just assumed it was down to the ride team to update them.
