Wow love the history of Blackpool and all the old photography bring back so many memories for me so thankyou so much for putting a big smile on my face hope you and your family are all keeping safe and well
Stayed in that new Boulevard Hotel just before the current lock down started. The illuminations were on and my partner had never seen them so we booked a room, when we arrived the rain was horizontal so we only managed to see a couple of coloured lights just outside our room window. Oh well a Blackpool trip that summed up 2020!
My biggest upset was when they did introduce a charge to enter the Pleasure Beach. I'm not one for rides I never have been, but I used to love the experience of wandering around the Pleasure Beach and watching all the fun of others. The noises. The smells. The screaming. The looking after everyone's bags and belongings as they rode the rides and moreso, The people watching and the ambience of the whole park was great. I miss that. I won't pay the cost that is required just to be a spectator. I'd have no issues if I enjoyed and took part in the rides, but as said they're not for me.xx
being nearly 70 I was going to comment exactly the same as you, thanks for saving me the bother, not been in there since they introduced charging but I did like to see people enjoying themselves.
I am the exact same. I was never 1 for going on rides, just watching people enjoying themselves was enough for me. If I was ever going on a ride I wouldn't mind paying a couple of quid to get on but that was very seldom. I've never been on the big one and I don't know if I ever would. For me to pay to get in to the pleasure beach would be a complete waste of money.
56 now and i've always been a big fan of the rides since i was a little boy but i've not been on The Pleasure Beach since they introduced the entrance fee. I think i read that they introduced the charge to keep out the druggies and low-life's that had started to congregate in there. Whether that's had an effect or not i don't know but i still begrudge having to pay to go in.
@@markyjam1 that's exactly the reason... can you imagine what it would be like now if it were a free for all....all the scumbags , druggies , feral youths , beggars just hanging about....it can't be that way...the pleasure beach is a much safer environment now... school trips are allowed , that wouldn't be the case if it weren't gated....as for paying a tenner for non rider's , maybe they could chuck in a drinks voucher or summat aswell
Reading your comment and whilst your upset at the charge I'm not sure whether you agree with it? If not , let me Paint a wonderful picture of what it would be like if it were still a free for all..... junkies , scumbags , beggars , drunks , feral youths and gangs all hanging around.... sound good to you?? The charge HAS to be in place I'm afraid... don't you see that? The please beach is a much safer environment now than before , school trips wouldn't be allowed for a start if it were not secure and gated...the Tenner entrance fee has to stay , maybe chuck in a drinks voucher or summat aswell
Love the then and now shots it's amazing how you can forget a place in a few short years and how it looked yesteryear. Look forward to seeing the place buzzing again. Jim & Liz.
Thanks Stephen, another great video. I remember taking the kids to the pleasure beach in the 90's & Bradley Walsh was the resident comedian at the show ( free entry with fairground pass ). Still go now ( both in our 60's ) but river caves & miniature train is highlight. Thanks again John d.😀😀👍
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always very interesting regarding pleasure beach past and present nice to know of the history take care xx
So many memories of old days as kids. Going in the star pub, spending cash in the small amusement arcade opposite, walking along the wall before the big blue was built etc etc. Happy times.
Excellent video love seeing the old photos compared to today, brings back great memories. The grand national is a great ride my favourite ride though was the log flume. Looked very eerie with it quiet and no one around. Can't wait for your next video on the history of the rides. Keep up your brilliant work.
Great video Sir. I think I touched on the old and new photos when you had previously put these on. Fantastic to see how things were to how they are now! I’ve got two girls desperate to get up to the Pleasure Beach and Tower. It’s going to cost me a fortune with a overnight stay 🙈. Keep up the superb work sir.
Love Blackpool so much it's always been my favourite place to stay since I was 6yrs old and now 51 and Blackpool is my safe haven for when I need a break
I, too, remember when it was all open at the front and used to race the monorail as it passed overhead. I've had a look for some old pics, but no luck. I can even remember the log flume being built!
I visit Blackpool at least 3 times a year with the family since the late 70s. But not been in the pleasure beach since they started to charge for entry. Some people like myself are not interested in going on the rides they just like to walk round and have something to eat.
Unfortunately those days are long gone. I too preferred those days but I can see the business sense of charging to get in. On our last 3 visits we have ONLY gone to the pleasure beach, the rest of Blackpool in our opinion is in a really bad state. And what they've done to the tower is disgraceful.
@@stevehadfield5963 agreed, today's Blackpool is the result of 50 years of shortsighted decisions by successive councils and developers who see only £ signs and have no regard for the town's history. The glory days are gone forever.
I really appreciate your videos. I'm originally from Bolton but live in Calgary Canada. My auntie lived in Thornton and I used to visit her. All these areas around Blackpool you visit brings back fond memories of my youth in the 70s. Cheers..keep up the good work
I worked "down the pleas" the Summers of 85 and 86. After the Laughing Man was turned off, it was 30 mins to closing I think, and then we used to leg it into The Star to get slaughtered. There was a resident band called "No Hard Feelings"...brilliant.
Always fantastic that you know so much about the history of Blackpool, you actually do know the facts...unlike a certain other Blackpool vlogger on TH-cam who shall not be named ;-)
It's a fascinating place for sure, like no other, despite the council and developers being so keen to bulldoze most of the history. I hope its fortunes improve and it can reinvent itself as something other than a place for druggies and beggars.
Year 2068, Pleasure beach abandoned and houses to be in place, i can see it happening to most theme parks around the world, they will disappear in the future. But is nice to see how it use to be. The star pub use to have live bands on which were great and the coasters restaurant was an American dinner and as you had you meal you sat in the seat of a waltzer ride seat. Spent many times in the pleasure beach wont be going again though as i have had my time on roller coasters.
I think a lot of the leisure industry is headed for this fate unfortunately. Kids nowadays can get more enjoyment from video games and social media than a wet week on the coast with mum and dad. Especially when VR really takes off, the real world (especially one beset by climate change, resource scarcity, authoritarian govt, economic collapse, and civil conflict) will seem rather crap by comparison to immersive open worlds where you can do and be anything you choose. I see little future for seaside resorts like Blackpool besides as warehousing for addicts and a new economic underclass. Bleak maybe but the most likely outcome.
Ghost town can't wait to visit when things get back to normal I got photos from when I visited back in the 80s as a boy always try to go back every couple of years love the place
Amazing video of the outskirts of the Pleasure Beach & your old photos , an unbelievable difference were The Star Pub used to be , I didn't know The Log Flume was gone , I loved a good soaking 💦 on that ride ... Would love to see a vlog on all the rides 🎢🎡🎠
i remember going 2 the ice show with my mum and dad when my mum turned 60 it was her dream 2 go and we all enjoyed it its reaily interesting how times have changed thank you stephen another brilliant video we went 2 the ice show sometime in the 90s
They called it The Hot Ice Show in them days Julie Hargreaves my step sister was one of the star skaters there, I remember the beautiful programs they used to print for the show
A very interesting video, thank you. I am sure in the 1990s at entrancevto South Pier they had a Coronation Street experience. A replica of the street you could walk down and a version of the Rovers, yet no one else seems to remember it. Anyone on here recall it ? Regards Gillian
Great video. Remember the open area at the front with Logflume ride. You'll find one of the Logflume cars in Watson Road Park being used as a flower bed.
Great to see the old photographs of what it used to be compared to what it looks like now! :) It's important that videos like this exist so it can been seen how places change over the years - looking forward to seeing what it looks like in the next 10-20 years, I wonder how much it will change?
Last time I went to the pleasure Beach was 1987. Went on the big dipper and grand national. Loved it but I was usually skint so couldn't afford the rides for long.
Love 💘Blackpool we visited Blackpool 2 times year but would pay prices in pleasure Beach years ago you could just walk around watching people on rides but now you have to pay .still fantastic video.
Nice video Leroy will be nice to see Pleasure Beach reopen for the Public see the rides in use and days out we do use that back round behind the Pleasure Beach coming in or going home.
Another great video, Stephen. I agree wholeheartedly about the Grand National being the best woodie... The Jack Rabbit at Kennywood comes a close second - and I’d definitely recommend combining that park with your next trip to Cedar Point 👍
Just spotted some of the carriages from the monorail when you are on Bond Street. These are presumably the ones they have for sale. I'd love one of these for my garden.
Hi Steven, good video i wish you could just walk in and look around the Pleasure Beach like you could years ago, it was really good when you could just do that 😏
@@karlbishop9670 yeah you used to cue and pay for each ride, or just go on the small amusement games etc. But people would just hog the best rides going on them over and over again, and others wouldn't even be able to afford the rides.

@@zakiranderson722 i recall when the Big One opened required 2 A tickets. Really wish they still had the ticket system. They had no expiry date that i recall
Didn’t Riley’s used to be up closer to town? Also does anyone else feel like the pleasure beach lost its sole when they removed the yellow smiley face logo (5:19)
Anyone remember the 2-seater 'sports cars' that were petrol-engined and ran round (slowly) a concrete track and the cars were guided by a metal rail that ran underneath them? I was walking my dog the other day in Wesham and a guy that lives over that way had two of them in his back garden!
There used to be a place in early 90’s called Mungo’s fun pub, I remember it as it was next to the theme park and we left Scotland after 2 o’clock in the morning to go to Blackpool and Mungos was the first bar we went to the next night. Great times!! Just recently I was at BTTOP on the Saturday and spent all day in the Karaoke bar called Geities, (not sure of the spelling) but I just gotta say I’ve been down 3 times now and I love the place!! Ps great video!
Sandgrownen and a Seasider at heart but have sinced moved away, still a regular visitor though (pre covid) huge soft spot for the town :) but I must admit (although better recently through investment) the magic of Bpool has gone for me now :( my grandparents ran holiday flats and hotels including a hotel on the prom at one point and I will always have cherished childhood memories of blackpool.
Wow love the history of Blackpool and all the old photography bring back so many memories for me so thankyou so much for putting a big smile on my face hope you and your family are all keeping safe and well
Great.the old photos bring back lots of memories.😀
Another top video Sir! Love the little bits of history and retro photos. Thank you!

Hi Steven things have changed a fair bit over the years little by little like everywhere else still remember the old blackpool nice video 👍👍
I use to love the star pub. There was some great bands on. I love the old photo mix. Great memories 👌
Another great video Stephen and the history look forward to the one of the roller coasters soon.
So many memories of old days as kids. Going in the star pub, spending cash in the small amusement arcade opposite, walking along the wall before the big blue was built etc etc. Happy times.
Sounds boring
@@flamezodiac5736 Maybe so now, but not as a child.
Nothing beats walking along the top of a wall!!!!! And in real life too, not on a flipping computer screen!
Absolutely loved this video, so lovely to see and hearing your history of things was brilliant. Thanks for yet another great video Steve 👌❤
Great video, remember it well . The old days . Can't believe I'm saying it now , how time flies. Interesting. Cheers
That brought back some memories! Thanks for that 😊

Great video Stephen, and very interesting, we always have a weekend at the big blue, cant beat it, hopefully be back there in the autumn
excellent informative video as always Steve ,look forward to your video on the history of the pleasure beach rides . 👍👍
Thoroughly enjoyed your clip. Made me smile during UK lockdown, was nice to see a place with a lot of good memories without having to leave the house.

It's a fascinating place for sure, like no other, despite the council and developers being so keen to bulldoze most of the history. I hope its fortunes improve and it can reinvent itself as something other than a place for druggies and beggars.
I remember when there were an entrance by the ice ring to go into the Pleasure beach x
That's the entrance we always went in because we always came via Watson Road.

I first did it at the pleasure beach in the 1950s… Our family owned a few arcades there back in the day… used to work there on the weekend
Ghost town can't wait to visit when things get back to normal I got photos from when I visited back in the 80s as a boy always try to go back every couple of years love the place

I was going to ask you about the Pleasure Beach. Just downloading to view later.
Nice video Leroy will be nice to see Pleasure Beach reopen for the Public see the rides in use and days out we do use that back round behind the Pleasure Beach coming in or going home.
Last went to Blackpool in 1999. Had many great times there. Did the Big One in 1996, awesome ride !
I used to love walking around the pleasure beach. I stopped going when they started charging, it wasn't worth it for the amount of rides I went on
I have not been to the pleasure beach since I was a kid nice vlog😊
Great video
I worked at Pontins in 1991 & Coasters was a great Bar.. I remember winning a "Drink a bottle of Red Stripe" in the shortest amount of time..
Really enjoyed this! 👏🏼
Let’s hope it opens in April!
ASAP I want to start vlogging in Blackpool. Join the Kult! 👍
Another great video, Stephen. I agree wholeheartedly about the Grand National being the best woodie... The Jack Rabbit at Kennywood comes a close second - and I’d definitely recommend combining that park with your next trip to Cedar Point 👍
Just spotted some of the carriages from the monorail when you are on Bond Street. These are presumably the ones they have for sale. I'd love one of these for my garden.
Hi Steven, good video i wish you could just walk in and look around the Pleasure Beach like you could years ago, it was really good when you could just do that 😏
Yeah a lot easier back then. All queuing now thay ruined it.
Where's the profit in that ??
@@moodyguymick I think you pay to get in and can ride on multiple things instead of individual payment
not sure tho.
@@karlbishop9670 yeah you used to cue and pay for each ride, or just go on the small amusement games etc. But people would just hog the best rides going on them over and over again, and others wouldn't even be able to afford the rides.
From what I remember the last time I went, there was three different levels of payment giving a selection of A B C and D tickets the highest fee would give you more A's than D's

Yes... Bring back Mr Funshine around the park.
I visited here in 2013 love blackpool
