    Pleasure Beach may not be my 1st or 2nd favourite park in the UK anymore, but it still holds a special place in my heart as I’m sure it does for a lot of people!

    This is one of the closest parks to me and I love going and I am very excited to return. Very excited to get some more Icon merch.
    Also, I wish Towers sold more merch online like the Pleasure Beach do. I would definitely buy more merch overall if I could get stuff in the closed season or just when I can’t visit.

    Because it was mentioned in yesterdays video, I had to go find your Happy Valley video from 2017. Yes, interesting park but the video with your friend was a lot of fun!! You dancing up and down the queue had me in stitches!! So fun and funny!! I very much see why you have no plans to ever go back though. Glad you two made it a fun day though!

    Grand National was always my favourite. As an only child with parents who hated rollercoasters I had to ride on my own but it didn’t stop me every year 😂. I miss the log flume, the water chute and Tokaydo Express, all my best memories.

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach is still easily in the top 5 Themeparks in the UK. In order 1. Alton Towers 2. Thorpe Park 3. Chessington 4. Pleasure Beach 5. Legoland 6. Drayton Manor 7. Paultons Park 8. Flamingo land 9. Oakwood 10. Adventure Island Southend. Universal Studios Bedford would likely become No.1 If it's ever built, let's see what happens.

    • @Leftpeg8379

      It's not hard though as there aren't really that many theme parks in the UK. BPB was good in the 90s and early 2000s but it's really gone downhill the past few seasons.

  • @richywiggins3845
    @richywiggins3845 Před měsícem

    Hello Charlotte and Shawn thank you for a positive, informative and entertaining vlog. We love BPB and look forward to seeing a new ride/s soon. At the moment there appears to be a lot of negativity about BPB on other vlogs but surely we should be supporting the history of the park. If BPB can get some new rides it will surely bring in new visitors. Icon is still our number one coaster and the Big One is a great fun ride. Thank you again for all your hard work.

    Icon is still my number one in the UK I can't wait to ride Hyperia, I guess my num one and two in the country will both be MACK because im sure Hyperia will be my number one. still Zadra is my overall number one, I cannot wait to get back on it next week :) and cannot wait for the first rmc to come to England!! I think they should use the big one structure and rmc should convert it and take back the record of the tallest, we can dream lol, hope you both had a lovely day at my local park.

    Hey shawn, I’m feeling pretty sick. I’ve been coughing non-stop and I’ve been shivering when I’m not even cold. But hopefully, watching one of you amazing vlogs and having a nice rest would make me feel better. Hope it wasn’t tipping it down at pleasure beach like it was on opening day. By the way, I haven’t watched this vlog yet but I’m looking forward to watching it later or tomorrow.

    Top tip to avoid issues with your phone scanning and e ticket go to either guest services or the photo shop at Wallace and Gromit they will scan your e ticket and print off a ticket that you use on the ride turnstiles. Saves your battery and rarely fails to scan!

    I went last week on an off-peak day. Operations were great, I felt.
    Big one had slowest ops due to one train.
    Ghost train was amazing and also did alice etc but audio kept cutting out. Also the wallace ride broke down. My first ever evacuation.
    Its a shame about river caves albeit.

    Completely agree about the scanning, I went the week after half term with school. We had wristbands and it was still a nightmare. I could only just scan my own wristband never mind the kids scanning theirs and the turnstiles are a nightmare for SEN kid’s especially if visually impaired. The operators ended up just pressing the button to let us through every time, it was completely pointless.
    Ghost train was fine that day but must have been running less trains as it was quiet midweek. We went on the rugrats log flume in November with our son (he was 18 months at the time so we are training him to love rides!) which I did not realise soaked you because I’d never done it before. It’s our closest park at an hour away from us. Can’t believe the river caves and ice blast are not open still. Glad we did ice blast in November I still think it’s a great ride. Was Dora open when you went? It was shut the week after half term so I’ve still not done it. Still never done revolution so might have a go at that eventually.

    When I was a kid around 2010, we used to go to pleasure beach every October for Halloween. Never once was the big one closed for high winds etc and I recall it being very windy. To the point where you could see the lift hill move in the queue line. Have restrictions gotten tighter over the years regarding wind or were we just lucky for it not to be closed every year?

    • @ThemeParkWorldwide

    After 3 rides on Icon and 1 ride on Enso i know have a new number 1 coaster beating Wickerman! My first ever ride on Icon was on the back row which was amazing then i did Enso which was insane and well worth £15 for the experience! I then did a mid train ride later that day and them a front row ride which just confirmed its number 1 spot in my coaster rankings!
