Good to see the awful/massive back rests on the boat ride have gone. Should get a bit of a view if you're not in the front row now!

 

[Lofty]

I'll be visiting next Monday - Wed to see Dungeons. Looking forward to it

Looking forward to going to the Dungeons for preview day

Those pictures look amazing <3

Ah looking foward to this!

Is the props and theming done is merlin studios? Cause if it is a massive well done!

 

[Lofty]

It's been sourced by them, not all of it has been created by them. They've actually used a lot of vintage outlets and props warehouses to source their materials.

 

[Screaming Coasters]

I've heard that even Farmer Studios have been in on the action. Don't know how accurate that is?

What day is preview day this week?

 

[Idlewild]

Today.(26th)

 

[Nemesis of oblivion]

Oh poo. I thought it was wednesday the preview day happens. Aw well...

And thank you for the info ^

 

[nadroJ]

Yay doing this today ^.^

 

[Screaming Coasters]

Just got home and I can confirm that the London Dungeon is now a pile of W@|\|K.

 

[marc]

^worse than before? And why is it bad?

 

[nadroJ]

I definitely think it's down to taste Erol, they've clearly gone for a much more 'Horrible Histories' style of history, so some toilet humour is to be expected. I thought it was fun

Apparently the drop tower drops more than once now? Surely that defeats the point?

 

[nadroJ]

^It doesn't totally make sense I'll agree, but the ride itself is actually better.

 

[Danzibarr]

I enjoyed it. Yes it has lost a bit of character now that it's not squished in between the Tooley Street arches, but as an overall experience I think the new one is better. Some really nice theming and effects, and Jack the Ripper provides a nice new scare!

 

[Screaming Coasters]

Marc, its so bad, I spent 2 hours writing an email in complaint to Nick Varney. Its just totally narked me and I don't know why I'm so annoyed over it?

Its an utter pile of $h|t and caters to South Banks European market, rather than Tooley Streets British Meat Market. They're taking us for mugs and its a sham of an attraction. Not a patch on the original.

I'll send you the email on FB, it details the problems.

I agree it wasn't as great as Tooley Street, but a lot of stuff wasn't working. It was the very first day in this location, so I am going to go again in June to see it after running after a couple of months. Just so everything is broken in and it is running smoothly.
