It's disappointing to see so many enthusiasts attacking Thorpe Park's Pride post on Instagram, including a YouTuber who has featured several established content creators in his videos. Stop being hateful, educate yourself and do fucking better.

Huge disappointment @THORPEPARK as Hyperia's queue has closed half an hour early! This was not made clear throughout the day, with the app showing a 9pm close. Lots of disappointed guests as the app is still incorrectly showing the ride as open! What a sour end to the day.

Disappointed that a coaster enthusiast with the opportunity to promote the industry on national news instead called classic rides "unsafe." It's not true, these rides are so well looked after. Misinformation like this contributes towards us losing rides like the Mouse.

Giving my honest feedback here. Scanning of mobile QR codes at every ride ruins the enjoyment of what should be a fun, hassle-free day at a theme park. It slows down queues, causes stress about phone charge, and encourages people to have their phones out as they board rides.

BPB's lineup is not the issue. Parks with much less impressive rides on offer are more successful. At its core, the issue with PB is that they (the business as a whole) treat customers like an inconvenience. That ethos has to change from the top for the place to thrive imo.

Alton Towers today fell far short of offering the experience that the 'UK's biggest theme park' should do. Having Hex, Blade, and Congo River Rapids closed all day takes away those vital support rides, then with horrendous availability on everything else, it fails to be fun.

@ChrispyContent Agreed, this season has really suffered from a lack of 'where shall we go next' Tardis and domestic scenes, which has done the incredible talents of Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson an injustice imo. Although, it's perhaps more a symptom of the lower episode count than the runtime.
