November 3, 201014 yr comment_102476 I'm guessing that they may as well be doing some maintenance to the Sea-Life tunnel, hence it's closure...Just as long as they don't add no bloody "Ghost of the Sea" crap...
November 3, 201014 yr comment_102521 is it just a coincidence or the year imperial leathers contract runs out, a month before it does we see a professor burp poster? Yes.
November 3, 201014 yr comment_102526 Maybe they are going to turn it into a horror ride. Professor Burp: Rise from the Dead or something. If only!
November 3, 201014 yr comment_102528 Nothing major will happen to Bubbleworks for a good few seasons, I don't think. I can see some very minimal changes until they decide that it's time for something different. It's depressing that the ride still seems to do well in guest feedback surveys. Unfortunately, success doesn't always mean quality.
November 3, 201014 yr comment_102531 It's depressing that the ride still seems to do well in guest feedback surveys.*cries*Sigh, evidently not enough people went on the original or understand the rape it suffered...
November 4, 201014 yr comment_102544 ^To be honest, I still think Bubbleworks is relying on memories for the GP as well. I'm pretty sure some just don't care about the branding of it and just see things as 'the carnival scene', 'the flashing lights scene', etc.
November 4, 201014 yr comment_102546 The ducks are owned by IP its one of there brands so they will have to go and be replaced?So you're saying that all yellow plastic ducks are all related to Imperial Leather?Erm... No... I'm sure Chessie can leave UNBRANDED yellow ducks in there once the sponsorship dies the horrible death we've been wishing upon it... I don't think many people realise it's sponsored that much anyway...
November 4, 201014 yr comment_102553 Too many people go on it saying were going to see Professor Burp to them find ohhhh he has gone! :(And those weird lab coats on staff don't help either with the whole professor thing...

November 10, 201014 yr comment_103093 ^You getting ideas for your future then Keith?Or will it all just be Vampire themed?
November 10, 201014 yr comment_103100 ^You getting ideas for your future then Keith?Or will it all just be Vampire themed? Vampire will probably be gone by the time I get married - unfortunately.But no, I don't intend to get married on Vampire...Maybe you could Benin show your love for Bubbleworks by going to get married on there?I know you are majorly enthusiastic for the poptastic ride.
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104496 CWoA will re-open for the 2011 season on the 26th March. In the meantime, we will open for Zoo Days every weekend, as well as for Christmas between 18 Dec and 3 January, and for February Half Term. Check our website for more information (www.chessington.com)This was answered by CWoA on their FB page... Thought I would share for anyone that wants to make plans to get there for when its open.
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104498 Why do they always open so stupidly late!!A week after the other two?It's ALWAYS been like that... And it's not 'stupidly' late...Anyways, noted down in the calender... Shall defo be making my way down for opening day funtimes...
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104509 But it shuts early too! (I know you mean this in closing fully but...)Hopefully there will be some of the usual 5pm closes going to 6pm.Hopefully the 6pm closes in summer will change to 7pm!That would be good.
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104510 (I know you mean this in closing fully but...)Hopefully there will be some of the usual 5pm closes going to 6pm.Hopefully the 6pm closes in summer will change to 7pm!That would be good. Ahh the Temple Man has returned!Welcome.
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104511 I do not understand? How people can be complaining it is opening late and shutting early is beyond me. I remember when Thorpe in particular would open in April and would be closed by the end of October. For the weather we have, the British parks' opening hours are pretty darn good!
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104512 No way near as good as other parks like Adventure Island and Paultons it would seem....
December 3, 201014 yr comment_104513 Chessington doesn't even really need to be open all the time between April - October anyway as whenever the schools are in, the park is dead. For the park to be open in February and November, would be like literally throwing money into the sea. Just a waste.
