Really enjoying your videos. This takes me back
Burps bubble works was a classic, should have never been replaced.
Thank you so much, I appreciate the support! I was at Chessington at the weekend and overheard people saying the same, visitors loved Professor Burps!
Great video! Absolutely loved the original bubbleworks ride, even though the gruffalo does have its charm. Chessington have actually started selling original bubbleworks merchandise at the park this year, which shows there must be alot of nostalgia for it. Always thought it would be cool if they could theme a restraunt or shop in the park after bubbleworks as it seems the interest is still there!
There is definitely a lot of nostalgia for the old Bubbleworks. I love the idea for a themed restaurant, but I would even take a shop. Ive seen what Universal do with their tribute stores and some are an attraction in their own right!
@CoasterConnections a shop would be brilliant too, they could even sell different flavoured fizzy drinks to go with the theme! If theres any of the old animatronics and characters then they could work great in there too, theres so much potential! Hopefully one day it could be a reality
One mystery is what happened to the Witch Statue at the end of Vampire that briefly appeared for Halloween season in 2006-2008.
Props like that sometimes show up when you least expect them. Usually hidden away ready to be uncovered!
@@CoasterConnectionsI have been trying to find any footage or photography of the statue available and still no luck
