I was wondering why you didnt compare Alton Towers, then realised thats 910 acres or 3.7 sqKm, twice the size of both sites combined.

Although the AI generated images are pretty insane but your commentary is much more entertaining!

no one thinks of two big problems for this park: 1. the weather, very cold and rainy (maximum annual temperature 21°C 2. To visit it, every foreigner needs a passport. I think that's why they haven't made a decision yet... let's not forget Portaventura

Looking forward to this Podcast. Keep it up both of you - the balance of humor & informative is brilliant.

I would have no issue with Universal Great Britain opening without HP - OR opening with a very small scale HP addition that doesnt impact the WB Tour. I think the resort can still thrive without it - especially if they can anchor the Park around Lord of the Rings!!

Absolutely loving these foot tours & in-depth looks at the site. Keep it up. Going to be amazing to look back on in a few years

Pretty insane the Universal team has already been on the ground walking around. What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall during those talks!!!!

This is incredibly exciting. Thank you for the before & after photos too - keep up the updates!!!

Just found this channel. Fantastic stuff. Can't wait to follow along for any & all updates. Can't believe this project really is happening!!!!

HI there i am doing a video on universal studios UK - can i use some of your footage of the trenches?

we most wait and see its too early say if its going to happen. Or not it most happened it would be great to have universal park in Europe for the first time after what happened a long time ago 👍👍🙂 cool video

Bet this one will have a Hogwarts castle hotel in the park like epic universe

I live in Wootton really looking forward to this

I really hope it goes ahead

If they can do harry potter just imagine changing the trains that go through the line to look like potter trains I'm sure they would try and do something like that

UH-UNH! if they know what's good for them THEY BETTER let Universal build a Universal Studios park there in the UK

right now there’s no parliament and it will be up to the next government after the 5th July to decide the future of the project

I'd definitely go. At the moment in the UK we have no Theme Parks with Movie tie ins.

Hopefully it will have potter

I think Lord of the Rings is a big part of the plans for this park and would fit perfectly in the English countryside. It would be unique and attract people from across the world. Whether or not HP happens, LOTR has potential to be equally epic. I think that will be the star unique draw.

They are not having a potter land. Universal want to keep at least 1 IP unique need to each country, so that people will visit more than 1. The UK will get lands based on Jurassic park, how to train dragons, Ninento, lord of the rings, stranger things, DreamWorks and with a few alone attractions based on UK classics such as James Bond

I feel like the solution to the railway station problem is just…..don’t close the Stewartby station

The public footpath issue is strange from the perspective of an American. But that's because the US doesn't have right of way laws and protected footpaths like the UK, and a lot of the country is very unfriendly to pedestrians as a result.

I can see with Fast and the Furious, E.T., Jurassic World, Battlestar Galactica, Jaws there are plenty of themes for a Park without the concern of having Harry Potter down the road.

The problem with Universal, is that its an international brand, and will be priced as such. It will be £100+ per person per day. Its purpose is to bring people from (mostly europe) around the world.

Full respect to you for making all of these updates, they are so in depth!

It was going ahead as soon as they bought the land. The ride contracts have already been signed with the suppliers along with landscaping and everything else. I can't tell you how I know, but it is what it is. Comcast and planners have already signed. They did the work before they bought the land. Ex senior engineering manager at a UK attraction. You're welcome. 🤓

Overall back in April 2007 Universal announced for the Dubai Park in there expensive Dubailand Resort that was going to look like Walt Disney World and started construction in 2008. Unfortunately the 2009 Finical crisis happened and construction was suspended. They changed the date to be open for 2012 then 2014. Then in October 2016 they decided not to built the park no more.

Keep up with the updates and fingers cross if they do pass hopefully the Universal Great Britain Park Resort it does pass. Fingers cross 🤞 Greetings from USA

The best video detailing exactly what's going on that I've seen x

Just as long as no secret agent from Merlin "accidentally" tips a jumping spiders nest onto the proposed land 👀🕷️

Lord of the Rings 🙌🏼

Why is harry potter an issue? Japan has both the Warner bro HP studio tour and wizard world at Universal studios Japan. Why can't UK, the home of HP have both and more?

Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Great Britain in 2030 Opening Day 🇬🇧

Post Brexit opening a new theme park in Britain does not seem like a sensible idea; would there be sufficient earning potential there? There are reasons to visit Britain, of course, but a theme park resort ... really?!? I have never felt the urge to spend more than a single day at a theme park and am not alone in that. Fine dining is hardly what one expects at a theme park. And the prices for pretty much everything at a theme park are rather inflated. There not being significant competition in easy reach means that Universal's resort won't get a sort of hub function for theme park enthusiasts 🤔

Great video I love watching all your updates so much detail and thought put into it

Considering at least half the population love harry Potter as long as that is there in some form i can see it been super popular

Please don't get Harry Potter. I hate it.

I'd rather they'd have no HP

Personally, the lack of HP would be a huge selling point for me.

I feel the only issue could be a labour government when they get in. Can’t see any issue with the universal side at all as it would be extremely economically viable for them.

Can guarantee if this project is greenlit, Disney will announce a new 3rd gate at DLP. Alton Towers will be bought by paramount, Chessington will be bought by Tesco's and Thorpe park will bravely soldier on, desperately trying to survive by doing fake versions called Barry Trotter and The Mighty Bulk.

Different architects are meant to be working different concepts for different parts of the park such as the entertainment area

Alternatively, Universal could build a studio lot on it. There's an increasing trend of films being filmed in the UK.

Warner Bros. and NBCUniversal have a close working relationship and several successful licensing agreements under their belts. This includes the Harry Potter IP, that has been very lucrative for both parties. I would be very surprised if an agreement hasn’t already been reached. The new park would help increase the popularity of the franchise and drive business to the Warner Bros. Studios Tour.

I do think it’s much more likely than not that it’ll happen 🙏🏻🙌

I could see them agreeing a deal with the Harry Potter IP. Pay a large fee of money also strike a deal to get combo tickets or half price tickets for each other.

Excellent recap of the challenges the project faces. This is the second time Universal Studios has looked to open a theme park in the UK. Let’s all hope the project gets approved this time, and the UK finally gets the theme park it needs and deserves.

Calling the uk an area without competition made me laugh coming from Austria without any major themepark. I just don’t understand why we don’t have one. We are central in Europe with major tourism and many big cities without themeparks in close proximity like Vienna Bratislava Prague and Budapest. And there is just nothing here and nobody even considers building a park here for some reason.
