Can we take a moment to appreciate this Shawn quote?: "That part is like riding a Tesco shopping trolley" 😂
@Pheeb Hello they weren’t even dissing it lmfao
@@GenixYT i
I’m glad that you liked that quote!
Quick question are we allowed to use our gopros at alton towers for on ride footage ive asked a few people but no one actually quite clear on it
@@stephengold1403 yea but not onride
I feel like their future kids are going to be living in Alton Towers haha
Lol
Ikr lol
I’m a kid 😒
In the gardens there is actually a house that you can buy it’s really cool
@@finjrj1 how much is it though like 10 million for how historic it could be
I went to alton towers the same day you were there and i had a little chat with you and you made an already great day even better so thank you.
I went yesterday too! But came kinda late and never saw him
It was great to meet you!

@Max Greenbank why does everyone have the smiler as their pfp?
A lot of smiling people.
The moment we’ve all been waiting for
It’s great to be back!
I dont know whether its my nostalgia goggles kicking in but i remember Theme Parks being a lot more colourful.
Alton towers is owned by merlin they love dark themes!
@@jaysoncowan4333 You're very right there, just at Alton Towers alone you've got a drop into blackness, a machine that hypnotises people, a haunted forest and a Pagan cult, and Thorpe Park as well you've got Saw, The Walking Dead, a killer insect apocalypse and a volcanic eruption, Merlin do love their dark themes
Thank you Shawn for being the best theme park enthusiast ever
Omg ikr he alone has taught me literally everything I know about rollercoasters and manufacturerers
Your not wrong
Enit thanks no body reads my comments 🤣🤣
Thank you for your kind words!
Omg hi shawn
Cant wait to get back to Alton Towers and try out the Retro Squad!!
They're literally just shitty fairground rides with massive queues, dont bother 🤣
@@noahleon9650 I thought mirador was decent but don’t waste your time queuing for the other 2 really
Have a great time!
Mixtape
@@noahleon9650 excuse me but these showman haven't been open for a long time and calling them shitty fairground rides is disgraceful as they aren't shitty at all!
It's great to see you back at Alton Towers
It's great how Alton Towers have extended ride close time! Crazy to think only two years ago it was closing at 4 sometimes 5!
Other than this week, the 4pm finish is sadly still here. I'm going on the 20th and it closes at 4. Kinda bad value for money but what can you do :(
@@Gakpolice I don’t think it’s too bad when it’s quiet. I’ve managed to do everything by 2pm before (all the major rides) Although for Alton Towers I think it should at least be open till 5pm because of the scale of the park. The dream would be to have USA opening times like they’re doing this week but constantly throughout the season but they would need more staff i reckon
It’s great to see some longer opening hours!
@@Dan-pv7cu I agree. Sometimes 6 hours is enough but when its busy/implementing social distancing, the queues at AT are often well over an hour... and Thorpe Park can be even worse. So its literally not even possible to do all 6 coasters... or at least not possible to do any re-rides.
I feel like a standard 5pm finish would solve some congestion problems but I appreciate there can be difficulties with that.. and with indoor rides closed that doesn't help crowd distribution.
The one I've been waiting for. It really is so good to see you guys back.
Wonderful to be back in the local park!
Would love to see the park fully purchase these rides if possible and retheme them to fit in theitr respective areas later down the line. They seem like really great, unique flats and it's cool to see the park fill in some empty spaces that they've had for a long time (Ripsaw, Submission, etc). Great vlog as always Shawn!
That’s true and this year Roller Disco is no longer in Dark Forest but Twistatron is where Enterprise used to be
The rides are running really well! And the operations on oblivion are fantastic with 5 trains!
Charlotte dancing always puts a smile on my face 😁💃
You do so much to promote British theme parks , I wish they’d let you film on ride 😊
Good to see you both back in action . I was watching on my phone and my kids all shouted “Is that TPWW ?? Put it on the big TV “😁
Thank you!
That's early in the morning. Great way to start the day!
I’ve had a few rough times on the smiler but now I realise compared to colossus on the back row the smiler keeps your ears relatively intact
I am not a rollercoaster person because I’m terrified of the loops but I am absolutely loving watching these vlogs every morning🥰
Start off small , there’s plenty without loops and lots of those are my favourites
Thank you for watching!
Back to back to back theme park vlogging. You must have legs of steel. Top job shawn.
Thank you!
so happy to finally be able to watch this! can’t wait to go on saturday!
Have a great time!
I’m going Saturday too!
Absolutely love this video I really want more of these videos it hypes me up for when I will be going to Alton towers this Wednesday
Thank you!
It's so good to see these vlogs, normality resumes! It gives us hope here in Ireland.
I love your content I would know nothing about theme parks without you
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I’m going in may, and needed to see what it was like so this was really helpful for me and my family! - L
Rusty the Robot was absolutely vibing
This park looks so much fun, hopefully I get to visit one day!
Them box boat things in the air tho😳I could nevaaaa
Good 2 see everyone in the 🇬🇧 happy again keep riding them
It’s wonderful to be back in the parks!
great vlog , as always!! charlotte always adds to the magic of THEME PARK WORLWIDE! because of your channel , i have come to know parks like ALTON TOWERS , BLACKPOOL PLEASURE BEACH and many others outside of the USA where i live ! I would of never knew any of these parks had i not found your channel ! long live THEME PARK WORLDWIDE!! thanks so much!!!
Thank you for watching!
Alton towers have defo upped their game this season, was really impressed- We were the only people to ride nemesis on opening day as it broke after the first run we were on - mixtape was standout of the retrorides but overall whilst it might be controversial I think that the retro rides should either get their own themed event (like Oktoberfest/Scarefest or a spot where they could alternate them in seasons- the queues showed that people rode them & were generally appreciative of them
That Wicker Man teddy bear had me dying laughing. What a terrible souvenir.
Mum and i were watching your updates whilst we were at legoland yesterday! Hoping to get to Alton Towers later this year
I could honestly sit and watch your videos all day back to back 👍🏽
Thank you!
Omg your uplode is quicker than yesterday’s :D I luv u have a good time on the rides!
Thank you!
Late night binge on theme park worldwide quality content as always stay safe guys
Thanks for watching!
Going to Thorpe park today Hope you have a good day wherever you go ❤️
Omg fourth season of the wicker man! I remember the flume, SW8 and the sadness I felt when the flume closed
I was 8 in 2015
They should do a whole retro themed area then it wouldn’t get in the way of the other themed areas around the park that would be amazing !! Love your videos by the way
Great to have these vlogs back good times great fun 👍🎢👍🎢
I saw this comment on yesterday’s vlog. And I thought it would be good for the whole of the week so. THEME PARK WORLDWIDE breakfast club. I had coco pops.
I had bread and butter
So happy to see you back in your local park.
Good to be back I am at Thorpe on the 24th
Well done to Alton Towers and their staff to keep operations as normal as possible and definitely agree galactica will always be AIR, awesome vlog really enjoyed it!
Shawn, why don't you advertise your visiting dates? It'd be great for fans to get a chance to meet you!
of course! im always a day or 2 early or late lmao
Time to don big hair, get down to some synth pop retro squad 80s style! Shawn and Charlotte, legends!!
Not everyone in the 80's had big or very big hair. some did and some didn't.
On Tuesday nemesis was on 2 trains until 5:30pm. Went to 1 train after that.
I really want the smiler bedding 36:41 I'm waiting for Alton Towers to refresh their online shop feels like it's taking forever
Yall uploading every day holy moly keep it up loved the Paultons and Blackpool vlogs what you doing tomorrow if your doing one tommorow
Thank you for watching! Chessington will be the next vlog!
So my best tips and tricks if you go to Alton towers go to galactica and nemesis and the retro squad first then ride a few other rides near there and around either head to x sector or wickerman because the queue is short and bring a drink and lunch to eat in the queue!
I was here on Friday and whilst i was on Galactica it broke down whilst we where facing the floor😂
I would of had a heart attack 😭
I went to Chessington in May, went on Tomb Blaster and we were trapped in it for about 15 minutes
I'm at collage watching this showing my friends the towers and new rides great vlog thanks for the update can't wait to goooo
Finnally a alton towers vlog again!!
credits to shawn for how quickly he edits the videos for us to enjoy!!
loved this vlog :) 🎢
Thank you!
They were still doing work in the David Walliams area on Monday. The door was open when our son was waiting for a lap of the cuckoo driving school and we could see workers and a cherry picker 👍
I started watching you like last year or 2019 idk but how far you have come is amazing! well done shawn. impressed man. Drayton manor and Alton Towers are my local parks and I love ur yearly vlogs so keep it up :D
Thanks for watching!
The monorail looks so worn down from the inside, kinda hoped they would use all the downtime for some repainting..
The fairground rides however look a bit better integrated than i expected. Except for the waltzer.To be honest though, i would ride anything at the moment haha
I’ll be going there this Sunday to Wednesday, nice to see a new flat ride!
I don't mind the temp rides, If there also helping small business that's a win all around with C19 & I agree they must see the wait times & how many people like the packed rides & start pushing to buy some.
Love Alton towers , can’t wait to get back this summer
I’m gonna be going today and I can’t wait!
Thundercats great cartoon
Hey Shawn! So glad you started putting subtitles on your videos. It’s a big help for me. Thank you so much! Love the videos! We’re heading to Towers beginning of June and can’t wait. 🤙🏻
Have a great time!
Glad to see alton open again and a great vid to watch with my breakfast 😂🍳
Hi Sean nice to see you today, keep up the good work. Mix Tape was our favourite retro squad ride but let's hope for something more permanent and more in keeping. Shopping trolley comment is very funny! And your not wrong either.
Good to see you!
Can’t wait for gangster granny’s ride
Here’s hoping longer opening hours and some permanent flat rides will become part of AT’s future.
Great vlog, as always. Really looking forward to the merch round up; can’t beat a bit of theme park merch.
I expect people are loving getting on the temporary rides for free when they normally have to pay 4 quid each at a fun fair
Yo man ye its amazing alton towers got everything for free well for me #merlin
#merlinpass
Much better to pay £53 and queue for an hour for a shorter and slower cycle here 😀😀😀
@@davidlloyd1494 hey! i would like to go to alton towers on the weekend with my father (i am 12) so how much would that cost together if i pay 5 days in advance? i cant figure it out. Thank you! :)
@@sashabourne5916 like £80 I think
We were looking forward to this video the most as we are going to Alton towers next week and we are getting very excited. Great video thank you. 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Love how you're getting all these vlogs out! Super good work, have fun guys !
Thank you!
Can confirm the new ramp access for Duel worked great, took our 3 kids to alton towers for their first time, 1 of them being in a wheelchair. Access was great on all rides and staff were really accommodating with access. Safe to say our kids are as addicted to theme parks as we are 😂.
That’s great to hear!
I clicked on this so fast after I saw it
Thanks for watching!
Oh hello Lucy
@@may8101 hello mayb at 1 am tell me something about yourself
@@lvgranty4448 I like to be awake late at night :)
Great vlog loving the vibe of the park with all the characters and entertainment and a nice touch with the retro squad.The wickerman looks amazing.Nice share 🙂👍
It’s such an exciting season for the park!
i could of sworn i heard a new sound effect in the drop at 13, especially sitting at the back, it sounded like someone laughing.
i heard that too!
How am i this late to this upload! Amazing to see alton towers vlogs again :)
Thank you!
Perhaps they haven’t put many bins down because of the wasps in the summer?
I'm going to Aton Towers in 10 days for the first ever time !! I'm really looking forward to it haha
Enjoy!
Happy to see you back at Alton towers 👍 any plans of going to fantasy island?
He is going this week
@@themeparkkieran4573 thanks for telling me
Later this week!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thank you👍
Fantastic to see a Alton Towers vlog. One of my favourite parks in the UK. That 2 hour plus wait for the smiler will just be a test for when you go back to florida and queue for Velicoaster 😂
Yay she’s back whoop whoop 🙌
Oh man!!! Had such a grin on my face watching this!! A.T is my fave place ever!! Brilliant Vlog guys :)
Thanks for watching!
These early morning up load put me in a dilemma. Do I watch now or wait till this evening so we both can enjoy, I usally take a sneek pick then feel guilty, just about to do the same, but cant wait to get home to night to a bit of theme park worldwide in a theme park for the third time in three days!!
Thank you did watching!
Going here tomorrow! Can't wait to ride The Smiler, Nemesis and Wicker Man again! If I see you there, Shawn, I will lose my mind!
Have a great time!
Can’t wait to go back to Alton 🔥🔥
I managed to get to Alton Towers last Saturday. Had a wicked time and actually forgot how intense the smiler was 😂
Glad you had a good time!
Does anyone remember this? “Throw it in the dustbin! Chuck it in the landfill!”
Great to see you at Alton towers again ! What a great start to the season. Keep the vlogs coming.
I can’t wait to get back on smiler
ok hands down the best youtubers ever
cant wait to get to alton
ohh love the mug can't see passed a new mug from a theme park lol
22:03 when I hear this I always think its going to play mission impossible
Hi! Great vlog, I’ll be going down next year April 19th for my birthday! Hoping I can catch you there
Going here today!!
Really enjoyed watching the Vlog, hopefully because of the temporary flat rides doing well hopefully it will make towers realise they need some more permanently 👍🏻
49:09 - the folks behind you & Charlotte define exactly what's wrong with masks.
Either wear them properly, or don't wear them at all. XD
Two things loved the fact they playing Curtis Mayfield and James Brown at the Character meet (I was jamming in the studio) and two Mixtape was Bopping guys!!
Roses are red, smiler ways a ton
Charlotte will get in some water rides
This theme park season
I did see you there and I was going to say hello but I was in a queue and the later opening times where awesome I love Alton towers
10:00 anyone see that boy in the background💀
I said hi to you and Charlotte in the queue for wickerman! Was great to see you both!
Great to see you!
The smiler sounds quite squeaky, has there been a repaint of the track? Nice video as always too!
Thank you! No track re-paints this year
I went to Alton Towers with my wife and Goddaughter last Friday and here are a few thoughts...Firstly get to Smiler when it opens as the queue is less than 10 minutes!! Only technical issues really were on Thirteen and Galactica which meant queue times were up at around an hour, but these would have been shorter but for the issues. Nemesis for me is not as much fun as it used to be. I wonder whether it needs modernising as it seemed very jerky and threw its passengers around a lot. Wicker Man...Absolutely amazing and for me, the best ride at the park. No wonder it's so popular. For a wooden coaster it was more smooth than Nemesis and the speed is a real surprise. All in all a wonderful day!
