Bye Bye Bling

[frostyfox]

Pleasure beach really are digging a grave for themselves selling another one of there major thrill rides. there selection for thrillseakers is now starting to dwindle.


Well we always needed more cafe's there. It's such a shame as I used to really adore this park... I think I will be doing alittle more in Europe next year

[Sean]

Wasn't Bling under-maintained though at BPB? If so, it's probably a saving grace for the ride, hopefully it will be looked after now.

[AeRo]

I think that Bling was dying 3 years ago, and yeah I understood that it was given very little mintenance. It is an old style ride now, so would be of limited appeal elsewhere.

[frostyfox]

It wouldn't be a first for them to sell a ride that doesn't work. We all remember hornets nest at Light Water Valley

[Sean]

Its a shame that Bling wasn't ever running on optimal performance as the ride was actually quite good.

[Aidan]

I wonder when they're going to bother ADDING a thrill ride? Its been a while.

[AeRo]

I doubt that Nic would pay for that.

[Jonesy85]

Bling would have been a good ride in the dark with special effects like big screens and lighting

[AeRo]

It was a good ride, but suffered badly at Blackpool.

[Nathan]

For those of you who may not know, it has been replaced by a high diving show.

[rayfromboro]

Just making everybody aware that the official Facebook page now has pictures of the high diving show. Including people on fire diving. It looks quite good actually. Staging could be a bit better but not bad at all.

[ormerod]

Didn't BPB have a similar diving show back in the 90's? I'm a bit sceptical as to why they've brought one back, as it's a bit of a novelty.

[AeRo]

They did - it was on the BBC Documentary

[Sir Coastalot]

The guy comparing the new show is the same guy from the 90's documentary! lmao

[AeRo]

Some things never change

[rayfromboro]

[AeRo]

The BBC series from the 1980's

I will upload it on RG later.

[rayfromboro]
