Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk At no point did I say they were sorted out, Chessington is clearly far from that. What I said is I think they are sorting it or at least attempting to, based on the improvements we've seen so far. Kerfuffle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HermanTheGerman Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 A planning application has been put forward and was supposed to have been decided upon on the 18th, and well that didn't happen. Hopefully they're just being slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastercameron98 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Ashok, the lion that sadly died earlier in 2015 is being replaced by a new male lion for 2016. Along with a refreshed Trail of the Kings in general http://www.chessington.com/plan/faq/149/roar-and-explore-2016.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Sorry for quoting an old post... On 12/22/2015 at 4:09 AM, pluk said: Panda's? A temple? I presume this is a Kung Fu Panda show then? It is made by the same people as Madagascar. I had always been assuming this, but it turns out it's not: http://www.chessington.com/2016/ So it's an original show, except for Easter when Po is about. So that's good, if not a bit odd.

Matt 236 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think Pandemonium has potential. It's another new show with a presumably original story and characters. It also means the park will now have at least two shows which may well bring them up as joint second best uk park for shows (which probably isn't saying a lot). The music is also being created by a well known associate (it's not IMA score). Fingers crossed something big is in the works next season too.

The Pandamonium show is believed to be located on a new stage being built where the Reindeers were [which has been relocated as a result].

Benin Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 The back wall is a bit, lacklustre... But then again, no-one will be looking at it because Tigers... Let's be honest, none of the theming in that place was ever coherent... Animal Kingdom it never was... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 To be honest, given they've gotten rid of that step, they could theme it a strawberry field and I wouldn't care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJ Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 That doesn't actually make any sense considering the decision to remove the step and the decision to redesign Trail were 2 different things but ok. The new trail themery is being done by Scruffy Dog by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new trail themery is being done by Scruffy Dog by the way. My point was more I don't really care that much about the themed design of the trail, but more the practicality of accessing it. Since I'm normally all for little details of theming, it was meant to show how big a deal the removal of that step was to me.

Would be great to see HITH come back [or something just as good]. Trick Or Treat Wood isn't really a loss [ if it does not return] as I found the walkthrough very weak when I visited the event last year.

SteveJ Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Errr only a small bottom part of that area is now being used as the reindeer enclosure, most the 'woods' are still there including the cabins so the seasonal attractions won't move. lewumbrajumbos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
