I am looking for a video tape of fantasy island to be uploaded from around the same time, it was like an informational video of what you can do there, can anyone help please?

The best is listening to all the screaming in the background.😂

This made me so happy and sad all at the same time ❤😢

This is what greed does...far better buying tickets as needed and free to wander around, they still got money out of you with snacks,drinks,meal or merchandise....most people go to Blackpool not just for the pleasure beach for the lights and general buzz of the golden mile...a lack of potential customers may nock some sense into the owners or risk park closure...

I gained concussion, broken jaw, and teeth on Corkscrew, never again. The last time I went,'Rita' had not long been opened (2005). Now, in my 50's and doubt, I'll be going again, no longer appeals to me.

Just look at how busy it was and no mobile phones.....better times...funny how packed it was with free entry....

Great day out I went in the 90s never stopped having fun all day 🤩

My grandad was one of the people that put this ride up heard many stories growing up about it

Haha😂 I used to work in Butlins in 1998. I used to operate this ride (amongst others).

Woah cool heheeheheheheheehehehehheheheeheheheheheheheh

I remember going with the school as our end of school year trip use to get a cap and a purple wristband I still rank their dodgems as the best i ever went on

the way she wafts it in jims face

Best place in the world so sad it’s gone😕

wow lovely

I like Rita and Thirteen but the whole of Talbot center/Ug Land/Dark Forest use to be so much more open I also remember how the wet wet wet concert was a question in the flume queue! 😁

I worked here 1989 season, Was a good place to work.

Nasty fall!. From Joe. X

We went to Frontier land in about 1981/2 and i went on the big wooded roller coaster and it crashed while i was on it .They were running 2 and we were waiting to go , when the other coasters brakes didnt work and it ploughed into the back of us . Lots of cuts and broken bones . I walked away with a really sore back and neck , with my Mum in tears , yet in those days we never even thought of suing .

4:37 That Dinosaur sadly got destroyed in an arson attack, and from what I have read on Wikipedia, there was another fire, not long after, destroying the Haunted inn.

The Astro Dancer was deceptively brutal. I loved it!

I’m the guy who fell. I went on the ride after multiple times.

I was there watching WWW that day. Me and my girl Kept leaving the gig to go back and ride Nemesis. There was no queue.

Amazing footage

I was there that year. 14 years old. Still hooked on Nemesis 🦀

I was there that summer is that 30 years ago? It’s just how I remembered

Paul Byatt operating the enterprise

Can see the slight difference in that first drop from back then to its wider profile now. Always remember it being better back then, and i guess I was too young to care how rough it was haha! Still love this ride today but dont think it has aged well.... if they ever get a few extra £mil then maybe build something to compete with Hyperia, get that crown back!

AT low-key having better flat rides back then than it does now 😂

I have some old footage of Pleasureland, one taken in May 1990. We even videoed riding on the "Jets" ride which was the one with the spaceman in the middle.

Woah...those Thunder Looper memories, it breaking down in the pouring rain, brakes not working, soaked to the skin 😅

Was there

Fantastic video, so many fond memories came flooding back.

To everyone who commented You are my family ❣️

crazy thing is you get drenched on this one but bone dry on the bigger rapids lol

it looks so surreal

Did the queue get up to 275 minutes back then?

Hold the fort Ladles and Jellyspoons. Rumour has it that the park is being eyed for a revamp and reopening. Should do well with Blackpool Pleasure Beach progressively falling flat on its arse since switching to a lacklustre Pay Per Entry rip-off. Would love it if Frontierland and Morecambe in general had a boon, with visitors swamping the place in droves as a preferred pocket-and-family-friendly destination for a day by the sea. I always have a warm glow to see greed get it comeuppance. It's invigourating.

Who's playing the music is it Les Dawson.😂

When Towers was a world class park. 😢

There is something so charming about seeing how the park used to be. Even nemesis looked very different back then (not considering reborn). It sounds just like how I remember it though!

only 3 days until it opens again

Hey, can anyone remember the waterride from that time. Been there 1994 and I dont really know its name anymore. Nice too see recordings from that time btw.

So when did the ride height restrictions come in? They can't build above tree line but that shuttle looper is much taller

I don't know why they closed it.

😞 I actually cried watching this massive amount of emotions and then I realised I’ll never take my 8 year old son to enjoy this amazing place ! Could have upgraded this gem of a place and built the cinema somewhere else but there can only ever be 1 metro land 🫡 I’ll miss you forever wonderful place ❤

Everything seemed better those days Good memories ❤ Thank God for memories 😊

Loved seeing bits of Frontierland again. So nostalgic. Use to love going there.

Memories ace

Worst thing they did was to charger to get in. I happy go in there for a beer and bite to eat if you could just walk in.

Do you know if there’s the 2004 season of this show anywhere? It’s when they built the lost river ride
