If you were interested in going down the route of park history and were particularly interested in the history of Thorpe Park, you should check out http://www.memoriesofthorpepark.co.uk/index.html. It's got plenty of amazing information.

 

I hope he won't mind me saying this but you could also talk to the man who is behind the site; Phill Pritchard  :)

That would entirely depend on what one finds interesting. I don't really find documentaries/programmes about gardening interesting, yet those exist...

An (arguably...) interesting angle could be comparing Thorpe's history to that of parks such as Chessie and Towers who have a longer period of history. It could explore the potential reasons why Thorpe has gone from a pit to what it is today in such a (comparable) short space of time, its development into a thrill park whilst Chessie became more family oriented, etc...

I think I'm gonna keep it based around Thorpe just because it's more easily accessible for me to get footage from and normally during pitching we're interrogated and I know more about Thorpe than any other place :P but easily can do comparisons with others, especially Alton Towers and Chessington for history and development. I think a nice segment on enthusiasts and meets will be interesting aswell to see the demographics (serious documentary stuff obviously ;) ) and so much more easy with doing interviews! (Also valid excuse to come to meets ;) )

Development and history to show how it's grown and matured (to an extent) will be good for a short doc. Gonna include a nice bit about fright nights too because it is bae <3

This is it! It's super basic and I don't need much detail, for the moment this'll be just to show research and participation within forums and including others who share the same interest with a different age sample.

Questions are all different and muddled due to the fact I'll organise it into charts later. Super great big thank you if you do it :)

 

If you could somehow inform me if you've done it then that'll be reaaaally helpful.
