Are you going to Oakwood theme park this year
Would Charlotte ever consider a charity fundraiser ride on Tidal wave? 😂 I recon Merlin would allow on-ride filming if it was for a special reason. Haha
DigitalDan did something like that last year!!
Makes no sense, she's been on it loads of times already before
@@charliewain6852 ugghhh...charities make no sense?
@@64onyx I didn't say that, I said her going on tidal wave for charity doesn't make sense, maybe if she went on it all day then yeah
That would be great!
Heard from a friend who works with Merlin that they were planning for Colossus to be open by April, however the reason it was delayed in reopening was because they received the part and put it in place, only to find out it was manufactured wrong! The size was just out!
Unfortunately so! At least it’s back open now!
Got back from Thorpe Park today and had my first ride on The Swarm, wow, what a great smooth coaster, loved every second of it. Colossus however was so rough. I found it to be a real ear basher. Not my first time on it either. And finally, Nemesis Inferno was such a pleasure to ride on, I had forgotten how good that ride is.
We’re glad you had a fun trip!
7:52 Stealth is my favourite coaster i have ridden, number 1 at the moment ahead of Wicker Man and The Swarm
It's a sick ride, but I would put Smiler ahead IMHO
@@richardbotterill6876 The Smiler is a great ride too
It’s an awesome ride!
I feel sorry for the staff that dance all day in the sun 🥵 I wouldn’t last 5 mins 😂
@@bigdave2308 ah that explains it
@@bigdave2308 🤦♂️
And get crap money for doing it
They were doing a great job!
They do that all the time at Disney in mega heat
Id like to see a day of the dead themed event like mexican day of the dead celebration around the park i think woukd fit really well at Thopre Park and maybe Alton Towers and possibly Chessington World of Adventures
That would be great
What I love about Colossus is the sound of the lift hill and the roar of the coaster going round. I have a soft spot for it .
It’s a great sound!
It was this time last year that I met you at Mardi Gras, feels like yesterday! I'll be back at Thorpe in 3 weeks to get on Ghost Train. Hope I get this weather so I can lap Tidal Wave a few times.
Have fun!
Went on Wednesday and to my luck colossus opened the next day. However, its better than never and im happy its finally open. The quality of ride on saw I find to be random, had 3 rides when i went, first was the smoothest ride i've ever had on it but the next 2 were some of the worst, I think you're right about temperature affecting it a lot so i reckon it's the first ride you should do in the park to ride it before the heat builds up
Hey guys thanks again for stopping and chatting to us it was lovely to meet you both 🙂👍
Good old brother would love to meet you both x
Great to see you!
24:13 Your wish came true, and what an insane job they are doing with it!!
I wish the parks stayed open longer. 5pm is so early
It would be great if we had some longer opening times
Is there a reason why the close so early
@@halo20678weather or light maybe
Sometimes they stay open until 6pm
@@ComediansCentre It's still light for hours after that.
Love starting my Sunday morning with a cup of coffee and the latest vlog from theme park worldwide! Only 10 minutes in so can't comment much on the content, other than I love the excitement evident in this one and the last Alton towers one for upcoming USA trip, can't wait for those vlogs to start 😊
Thank you for joining us!
7:22 someones phone flys out of their hand lol
It’s good to see that Colossus is back open because I was looking forward to riding it when I visit Thorpe Park this summer. Can’t wait for the USA trip guys!
Great to see it back!
We did Thorpe park last Sunday and managed 3 rides on stealth back to back and 3 rides on swarm too it was busy but surprisingly not too longer queues. I love stealth we did it front row for the first time it was amazing!!
Absolutely love Stealth!
I’m supposed to be doing my homework due tomorrow (it’s 11pm) but instead I’m grooving to California dreaming 6:23
20:02 im so glad i did walking dead the ride, i loved the coaster but i hated the theme and i was so scared 😂 glad there was no actors
They need to put the backwards seats back on the swarm
Anyone else think considering it's such a small park that Thorpe Park could potentially really benefit from having 1 really good theme that covered the whole park? The various sections of the park that share the Amity themes are all really well done. If they could could replace angry birds land with something else Amity themed and then expand it to the area where the mega shop and the games are I think that could work awesomely
I was so happy to meet you both as you were walking into the SAW area
Great to see you!
Went to Thorpe Park a few days ago and the operations are WAY BETTER! They leave no seat empty and they have way more staff allowing for faster restraint checks. The park was busy, but the highest queue I saw all day was 45mins...
Keep up the great work, I have been watching you for years and your videos are great. Keep up the amazing work😄
Thanks for your continued support!
I'll be absolutely gutted when Rush goes - it's my favourite 'cool down' ride when my head's had enough inversions and I need a break! 💔
It’s a great ride!
Gosh I remember when the samurai was the new ride at Chessington, and it's still at Thorpe Park after they flat-packed it and transferred it there
Brilliant start for the Swarm. I remember doing that on the Log Flume at Alton Towers
Ahaha! Great video Shawn, love to see you and Charlotte do more and more vlogs!
Thanks!
I heard sea storm is filmed about hill billies using the water from the tidal wave in amity cove to make a water slide
Amazing video. We have different opinions but that's absolutely fine 😊
I don't want to go to Colossus anymore. I hit my head and ears a lot. There is a huge difference between Colossus and Swarm. Swarm is amazing because we fly, we don't feel any pain. It was my favourite ride! The Saw is really good as well. I loved it!
I was there when you were there
Just been on Ride to Happiness and it was AMAZING. We went on it 6 times!
Do you know if Parc Astérix gets busy in weekdays?
World class coaster!
Yayyy love your thorpe park vlogs ❤😊
It’s Ben-yays
Spelt like Beignet
Basically French for fritter, usually cauliflower but can be other things too👍
1:09 You had only just got through the gate 🤣 #BlowingUp
Great vid guys! We are off to Thorpe park next week for the first time and this is a great heads up on what’s good and what’s not.
i cant not wait to get on mack hyper next year. this will probably be my top first best ride in uk and im happy is a mack
Thorpe is my local park, cannot wait for project exodus to start consturction.
Mann I'm so sad I could've met you guys if u came tomorrow 😢😢😢cause I'm going thorpe tomorrow
Have a great time!
I had a brilliant time thanks I wish I met you guys though
Hope You Love It Didn’t have to say brioche shawn😂😂
I have no idea how it’s pronounced 😂
I would love to go to this park, but it 430 miles away from me.
Will you be doing a Nemesis update before you and Charlotte leave for your American Tour??
Looking forward to seeing the travel vlogs
Keep the vlogs coming..❤❤
You could always stay over make a few days of it
@@kkrispy2009P sounds like a plan..
We will be indeed! Thank you!
Ahh we were in Legoland 😂 It was either Legoland or Thorpe park. Wish I went to Thorpe Park now 😂 Looks amazing for Mardi gras tho 😍🎉
Another great catch up from Thorpe Park - so much done on a day of beautiful weather too. Confused with the B & J pricing, 2 scoops was 2.88 at Chessington on Saturday with AP disc so must be 3.60 normally, Surprised it was so different there, but you found the better deal anyhow, will you be needing picnics in the US and trying to save on car parking as both are often pretty expensive over there aren't they?
Your videos are proper relaxing to watch! Keep up the good vibes guys :)
Thank you Mark!
Great video! Went to Thorpe park yesterday for my birthday. Had great fun. Cant wait for the America Vlogs😄
Bring on the USA trip!
Keep up the great vids 🎉
Thanks!
Shaun I had 3 rides on Saw in late April, one cold early morning and 2 at 3pm in rain, and it's honestly the second worst coaster I've ever ridden, it was so rough it almost but not quite took the title from mid 90's ride of Crazy Loop at Flamingo land. I don't think excess heat has anything to do with how rough that is riding this season 🤕
It was really rough on this day unfortunately
Fab vlog again both. I haven't been to this Park before so enjoyed watching. I love it when it's not too busy and there's little wait time so you can fit more in or do multiple rides. Poor Charlotte - got wet again 😂 The Burger King crown suited you Shawn 😅 I'm off to Legoland next week. Looking forward to your US vlogs ❤
Thank you!
Great vlog. My dream theme park is cedar point but the only problem is money
Live so close to TP but not been yet...think i over did it being so closw but maybe a year to come back!
Looking forward to my first visit to Thorpe Park next week. Being a Midlander we always got o Alton Towers. Booked overnight too so we have 2 days there.
Have a great time!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide will do. 40th birthday treat unlimited fast pass ticket bought and Mardi Gras is there.
love uu two can’t wait for the summer vids again ! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
When project exodus (can’t spell it) opens, the big one is going to have to change their sign to the second biggest coaster in England 😂
Colossus isn't rough but Saw is. Eh. 😂
Oh I do love your videos! keep em up! Have a good time in America.
Thank you!
It’s good Thorpe Park has flat rides but it’s a huge issue Alton Towers needs to sort out
I went there on May the 2nd, Stealth was our best ride
did anyone else notice the dropped item at 7.23 on the stealth clip lol
Witnessed a horrendous accident on the rumba rapid ride when I was a teen. I've never found it logged anywhere. The kid jumped the bridge and his feet got sucked under the turntable going under the bridge. Lots of blood and screaming! They then put up barriers and health and safety notices.
That’s awful to hear. This is why it’s so important to remain seated!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide the lad wasn't even on the ride yet. He was Infront in the queue but obviously got bored waiting so thought he'd skip the queue and climb over the bridge into the turntable
Great video from my local ☺
Lovely to see you two having fun.
Happy Mardi Gras 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I only wish they'd speed up Swarm 🤔
Thanks!
I was at mardi gras at alton towers on the 1st and 2nd of June
I am absolutely hooked by your entertaining voice, very enjoyable to watch! Did you both purchase fast-track tickets to get multiple rides? Keep up the hard work!
Thank you, fastrack wasn’t needed!
Another great video as always! Would love to come here one day haha
12:04 I wouldn’t go on colossus because of the restraints. The few times I’ve been on it hurts my ears and gives me a headache.
The restraints are horrible
Hi guys
We went to Thorpe park yesterday and they have stopped the gift shop scene on the ghost train. Any ideas why? I am hoping they plan to improve it ...thought you may know something?
That’s interesting to hear. We’ll be heading there this week and will check it out!
Funnily enough that tanoy at 18:00 reminded me of when this guy doing the throughputs couldn’t pull my restraints over properly and set it was a faulty seat and just said good luck, but in a bit of concern I just stayed because it was mostly over me. I was skinny as well so I had to hold on otherwise I could’ve been fucked istg, it was a fair gap, I’m not being a dramatic gp.
Sorry to hear that!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide nah it was alright but I didn’t really want to have to hold on hard after a 90 min wait but at least I was alright. Just one of those situations where I didn’t know if I should move seats incase they start it whilst I’m moving and that would be significantly worse, even if that’s very unlikely 🤣
@@ThemeParkWorldwide tbh the gap wasn’t that big but it was definitely precarious, and I don’t think most people would’ve been ok with that. A bit reckless from the operator imo
GOTTA LOVE thorpe park
I am going there when the new rollercoaster arrives tallest in Britain 😎👍👏👏👏👏
When are you guys next at Alton towers because I’m there now and I would love to meet you ? 😁😊
We’ll be having one more visit before our USA trip!
Much neeeded water ride in this weather !! Charlotte on go Tidal wave u went on Vahilla 3 times in a row x
The weather was great!
Shawn and Charlotte, It’s nice to see you guys at Thorpe Park today
Gutted I missed them, next time 🙏
what day were they there
@@grantmichaels8671they said it was the day colossus reopened, i think that was thursday so they would have been there then
Kids ride the one ride... FLYING FISHHHH🎉🎉
Me andy parents love you content and I went Alton towers 3 months ago and I love it so much thanks for making my day
Thank you!
Never been to any UK theme park other than alton towers, hope to go to thorpe park sometime!
This year i am going to towers to go on rita, sub terra and curse at alton manor in the summer.
Next year I will also go to towers to go on Nemesis and possibly the smiler and oblivion.
Maybe in 2025 i will go somewhere else like thorpe park or blackpool pleasure beach?
Have a great time!
i swear u were just at alton tower’s yesterday
Once when I was going on swarm I saw some vomit hanging on the net 😂
Oh no!
27:17 It is pronounced Ben-Yay
Hopefully, Project Exodus will have started to go up before i go in September
Hopefully so!
We think at HQ that Zodiac will be the first of #flatridecorner to leave the park….probably replaced with we’d like to see something aimed at the family/thrills and possibly another supporting flat down there!! If rush was to go could we see something like maelstrom at Drayton relocated?? Also tidal wave if you’re down the south for carnival around July 22nd/29th we’ll join you for a back row 😊
Possibly so! I’d love to see a huge new Intamin Gyro Swing come to the park!
Guys I see you are carrying backpacks to the rides. Is it allowed on the rides, how to manage if you are a solo traveller?
It is indeed, free storage on the platform!
I just adore you two and your vlogs 🩷🌞 can't wait for the USA videos 🇺🇲
Thank you!
I hated saw the neck after hurt just got over a 7 day migraine lol
Why was the matrix theme tune playing by saw? @13:38
It plays on Samurai
Nice upload but how do u go theme parks everyday like do u guys have rest??
Thank you! We like to keep busy!
Great video as always 😁 What day of the week did you go? Looks like perfect crowd levels
Awesome video but sometimes I wish you had a cameraman that way it allows you and her to be more free... my bad I forget names 😂
I really wish these parks would allow POV footage. POV adds exponentially to the viewing experience.
If only Merlin allowed it!
Great Vlog as always Shawn and Charlotte
So on entry can I just scan my ticket at the turnstiles and go straight through to the park?
You can indeed
Can someone tell me how much is 2023 fast track for Thorpe parl
I am going there tomorrow
Cool
Ledge Shawn and Charlotte! Beignet (pronounced Ben-yay) is just a sugary doughnut, nothing too fancy. Po’Boys are just fried prawn sandwiches 👍
Thanks for watching!
Great video you two. As always...😊
About Rush, I recently saw a video from The US of one of those rides but it was absolutely huge. A lot bigger than Thorpe Parks. Can't remember what park and maybe you saw it? So they still seem to manufacturer them.
That one looked very intense and sure it was hitting nearly 70 mph at the bottom of its swing.
Looking forward to you America road trip. Can't wait ❤
Thanks for watching!
I saw you quite a few times on that day. Shame I couldn’t get to say Hi as was in queue or on rides
Hope you had fun!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I did, I managed 33 rides including 11 rides on Stealth 😂
So glad u got to experience TP Mardi gra before ur us trip as wouldn't be on when u get bk. I still prefer to to Alton bcoz it's changed I don't think towers has much🤔
It was a great trip!
Hi shawn and charlotte i will celebrate my 13th birthday on 18th june however i will go there on 23rd june and for ny birthday i would love to see you both there and go on the rides also its a date to do your june vlog at alton towers x
Have a wonderful birthday!
keeps me smilingggg ❤️
Try the blue water zip wire I’m doing it today
Hi Shawn and Charlotte, hope you guys are well. Please advise- am I allowed to have a small bag with me on the rollercoasters and rides? Would appreciate a reply or two for confirmation. Thank you.
It needs to be left on the platform
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thank you for the reply 😊 is it safe to do so? i'll be leaving things like cash and phone in there.
