Visit Blackpool Pleasure Beach,
Southport's Pleasureland and Brean Leisure Park on this DVD, the
first of a new series of UK amusement park DVDs.
The DVD features the following:
Blackpool Pleasure Beach in
1995: The Pepsi Max Big One had opened the previous year, and is
seen on this DVD before the first drop was rebuilt. Rides that have
since been lost can be seen in action, including the Monster, Tagada
(now part of Trauma Towers), Turtle Chase and the figure-of-eight
roller coaster, Tokaydo Express. Also see vintage rides such as The
Whip, Big Dipper and Derby Racer.
Pleasureland (Southport,
Merseyside) in 1998: Pleasureland in 1998 was a different world
to the park of today. This DVD was shot before the signature
Traumatizer roller coaster was constructed and before the park
improvements had been carried out which dramatically changed the
face of the park. See the Twist and Dodgems operating on the site of
Traumatizer, and see vintage rides such as the Caterpillar and
Gallopers.
Brean Leisure Park (Brean
Sands, Somerset) in 2002: This was a fantastic year for the
South West's most popular amusement park, with new rides such as
Crazy Mouse and Wild Water log flume shown in operation.
This DVD is pure, unadulterated
parks and rides, with no commentary.
