Re: Wallace & Gromit Confirmed For Pleasure Beach
Officially announced as the Thrill-o-Matic, and (to eat my words) is partly funded by the Lancashire Enterprise Zone who are loaning £2m.

^ I think Lofty means "hy not update when we can see something else apart from a faux wall? "Oh look, a new girder is in place!" Having said all that, I got excited when a digger lifted it's shovel on The Swarm, construction site.

Yea, river caves is open but that area has got a load of walling around blocking the construction site and some of the theming.

They are keeping the track, but it is being refurbished. No one knows if any of the theming will be kept, as I doubt it would fit the Wallace & Gromit theme - Would be a shame not to see Indiana Jones in Carbonite anymore though
.
Yes, River Caves is still open during construction of the new ride. It won't interact with River Caves anymore, as the "Blue Grotto" area of River Caves has been covered and changed + The Restaurant has moved to Bean Street FY4 and has partly been replaced by an Ice Cream Cafe.

Hey guys, I don't if you know but on the Pleasure Beach Expeirence Forums someone posted an offical artical that the Thrill-O-Matic will have on ride photo and that their will be different expeirences. Sounds intresting. I suppose it could mean that they will have four different storylines to the four feature lengthed episodes but I don't know.

The only rides in the country listed are the Scenic Railway and the Hull Water Chute.
Any of the rides at Blackpool would be difficult to get listed, the Mouse the hardest as it's actually pretty new. Erm, this could really do with its own topic though :lol:
