That field currently has more working rides than Alton Towers and the theming in the field is better than Hyperia and the mud taste better than any off the food served up at any Merlin park.
I think it’s essential for universal to collab with channels as big as yours. If this HOPEFULLY gets the green light, I have no doubt in my mind, they will ask DigitalDan to be involved. We can’t wait for what’s to come!
As a Floridian, you have no idea what you're in for. (I mean that in a good way) Universal is one of the most "bang for your buck" theme parks in the world, I would argue. The level of theming is also going to be completely unmatched all the way to Paris lol...
Ain't no way they ain't doing Harry Potter, they'll bleed that franchise for every dime they can get, trust me, it'll be there! It won't be Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic but they'll find a way. Ty for adding another series for us to watch, with TPWITP and now The Field, i'm never gonna miss a piece of theme park news 🙏
Can I just say a massive thanks to you for engaging with an EPQ student at my school. I suggested he contact you as you’ve always seemed really approachable and have spoken to my son a couple of times in parks, but to send such an encouraging message to a student who messaged you out of the blue is really appreciated and will certainly help him give context for his project.
i was in school earlier and a boy shouted at the top of his lungs "ITS THE DIGITAL DAN FAN" and i hid behind my bestfriend and was like whyyy, out of everyone why me😭😭 thats what he refers to me as now and whenever he sees me he says "DIGITAL DAN IS MY FAVOURITE RUclipsR"
The one thing I think they need to keep in mind when they are building this park is that we don't get Paris weather, we need indoor/sheltered parts and making sure that a rainy day doesn't ruin the experience. I wonder if the 'jumping coaster' themed to Donkey Kong might be an option.
The Kempston Hardwick station will in the future form part of the new East West Rail line from Oxford, MK, Bedford and Cambridge running 4 car trains, as well as the 2 car Bedford Bletchley train running in between, so it will improve. If you were wondering
That station will close down and they'll be building a new one just down the line. If they need to do 4 lines then the whole railway from Bedford to Bletchley will have to shut down. East west railway will cause a lot of disruption for the town but I think it'll be worth it seeing its potential connecting Bedford to Cambridge, MK, and Oxford by rail.
Just wondering if you have decided what seasoning your going to use on your shoe, seeing as a topspin has been delivered to alton towers haha. All jokes aside, great video, and cant wait to see how you get yourself out of this situation 😂
Need to read up on East West Rail Dan, that bit of track with Kempston Hardwick is going to be part of the line from Oxford to Cambridge and almost certainly they'll build a big station for it.
What I’m hoping is that Universal will initially be a blow to Disneyland Paris so they can finally wake up and install a real new attraction (latest coaster was RC Racer in 2010 and ground up ride in the main park was Buzz Lightyear in 2006). DLP has become really stale over the last few years, causing me and a lot of others to ditch them for Parc Asterix despite DLP being easier to access and closer to my home.
Hope you guys like my poem. I am Universal Studios Great Britain. You are Universal Studios Great Britain. They are Universal Studios Great Britain We are Univetsal Studios Great Britain. Thank You I have other similar poems about PBR,AT and TP.
I think the answer for Universal to not putting harry potter in the UK park, is to instead make the UK park have the only LOTR land in the world. People from the UK still have value in the Orlando parks, but it creates demand for people from the US to spend the money to visit the UK
@DigitalDan Does it? Why is that? The UK economy isn't doing too well and UK theme park attendances are dropping not rising. That's not a particularly good sign considering how expensive Universal parks are. Furthermore this whole project requires a massive amount of government funding towards infrastructure improvements too. I'd say it's still 50/50 at the moment.
Just a thought on the potential hit this could have on other theme parks in the UK. We went to Alten Towers about a year ago, of the 6 rides we were able to get on, 3 of them broke down during queuing, wasting the precious SIX HOURS the park was open during BRITISH SUMMER TIME. parks being open for six hours is absolutely unacceptable when people are traveling long distances to get to the parks. If universal has 8 or 9 hour operating hours, it will force the other British parks to follow suit. Competition necessitates change, and Merlin needs to do better. Edit: Talking about pricing, I can imagine the ticket prices will match those of their European counterparts (adjusted for Currency) so around £60 for adults, less for children. a fee worth paying for a better experience all round.
Welcome to The Field! 🌍
Howdy :)
Welcome to the new universal area, The FIELD
it still has better ride operation than Alton Towers
wassuuuppppppp
Welcome to Epic Universe UK!
Yeah. It's gonna be that park. Not another IOA.
That field currently has more working rides than Alton Towers and the theming in the field is better than Hyperia and the mud taste better than any off the food served up at any Merlin park.
Pretty sure 5 beats 0
Very true merlin food is appalling
😂😂
rip digi daniel's phone 1:14 I will never mentally recover from this horrific accident.
lol
Dan and Marcus sitting in a field being Dan and Marcus, now this does put a smile on my face.
i saw this on your insta and my sister said "aw him and emily are on a date!" and then she clicked the next pic and she was like- oh!
😂😂
I’m expecting you to STAY THERE for the entire process 😂
Then he can't build his park in planco 2
Yep! We’re still here!
I honestly thought for a second that you and Marcus were about to have a picnic.
The picnic basket is symbolic. As the theme park starts to be constructed,.so will the picnic. Then Dan will eat his shoe 🎉🎉
I would love a video like that
@@MrGamerDoesVids Same, I can just imagine Dan and Marcus in a random field, just eating sandwiches and crisps and cakes and drinking J20.
This world is corrupted man we’ve gone from amazing parks to some acres of flipping dirt
😂😂
I live near Bedford in a place called harpenden and I have been on a walk that crosses through that field
Bring me sunshine in your smile 😃

I have genuinely never been so excited for a video upload ✨🔥
Great video, you absolute thoosie nerds 😂 Grabbing the mics out of the picnic basket cracked me up
Digital dan looks to professional with those microphones
Ain't no way they ain't doing Harry Potter, they'll bleed that franchise for every dime they can get, trust me, it'll be there! It won't be Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic but they'll find a way. Ty for adding another series for us to watch, with TPWITP and now The Field, i'm never gonna miss a piece of theme park news 🙏
No worries! Excited to be doing more series 🔥
I actually love this type of video from Dan

The chairs are just so iconic 😂😂 it’s nearly 3 mins in and Marcus falling off the chair at 2:47 has me in stitches 😭😭😂😂
Bro traveled all the way to Bedford just to sit in a muddy field for 15 minutes 😂
Dan and Marcus yapping on a field for 15 minutes was not on my 2024 bingo card

welcome to the getting called weird things group , IM THE SLEEPING BAG GIRL CUS MY COAT LOOKS LIKE ONE

Why hide? I’d just own it
@@CoasterTime704 yk what im gonna do that
Marcus falling off the camping chair🔥🔥🤣
Can't wait for you to eat a shoe in the next vid.
Oh yeah why did he promise that again?
@@plighting_engineerd back when there were absolutely no signs of a top spin coming back to towers, he said he'd eat a shoe if ripsaw returned
Not confirmed a top spin by the park yet but yeahhh…. Maybe it’s finally time 😢
@@DigitalDanit was on the car park 😈
@@DigitalDan Yeh topspin parts have arrived on carpark now.
Marcus ranking Hagrid’s over velocicoaster - I actually have to agree 😅
now we need a camping at the Universal Bedford site until construction starts vlog 🍷
I hope we get a churro stand like islands of adventure did!
0:18 Not the universal intro 😂😂😂
Great Video Dan And Marcus 😊.
Thank you!!
The Uk its self has so many IP's that could be used. Doctor who, Paddington bear, Wallace and Gromit, Sherlock Holmes, James Bond.
I should have waited to the end of the video before i commented!
Best series I’ve found on RUclips

Thought you was in fearless valley for a sec
It looks in way better shape than the site where "London Resort" was meant to be.
Agreed!
Love how dans phone just falls after hanging on for dear life at 1:16

liked and subscribed, cant wait for that sweet t-shirt Dan !
@thrill_riders @DigitalDan where's our human pyramid from summer? 🤔
Great vid btw keep it up lads ❤
Love this, I live just over the road. Hoping to see some movement in the new year on this project.
Agreed!! Can’t wait to see it develop 👌
The clash of clans background music is pure class
Universal Orlando, Hollywood, Japan 😀
Universal Bedford.. 😶
also goodbye dans phone 1:13
them casually chatting away about universal
me glaring at the phone that is neglected on the ground
the panic was gone when he picked it up
😂😂
Dan's phone slowly falling out lol 🤣
I think the uk family parks will be most effected by this because when people go to the uk they will probably only go to universal Thorpe and towers
3:18 POV: you’re a Disney fan living living near a field in Bedford
Love the intro to the video
Litreally cannot wait xx You two are so hilarious xx🤣
Really enjoy your videos. Do you have your own merchandise on sale?
Universal announced that this park will be open all year round, so January won't be depressing in the UK anymore!
Where’s my free t- shirt Dan? 😈
Please use a drone for the construction updates. Goated vid btw
well, we can expect a part 2 in 2030 on the carpark
No way bros made a podcast ep now
I feel like Universal will be more expensive than other UK parks but not by much, I’d guess about £60 compared to the £40 or so of the other parks
Given that the current todays price of Thorpe and Alton is £68 … i think we will see brand new tickets for this park around £100 a day
@@samwalker8893no one pays £68 to get into Alton or Thorpe , always offers on somewhere
I expect a day by day series, throughly explaining everything being done in the construction process. The first episode should commence by next week
loving the muddy look the park is going for
The phone falling out the pocket 😭
Disneyland Paris will really have to up it's game if this does go ahead
Would love a version of the Hollywood new fast and furious coaster.
The phone falling out dan pocket is driving me mental 😭

Lol nice vid dan!! Have u heard the news about toxicator ehem i mean project ocean its arrived in the car park
I have! Video out tomorrow 👌

great field update lads, very grassy
I though you was pulling a shoe out of the picnic basket to eat Danny Boy 😅
Soon 😂

I thought I saw Marcus when I was queuing for hagrids. It's a great coaster but not as good as velocicoaster!
Submit to the spin and…
EAT YOUR SHOE!!
Now this is a series that I'll follow! Also I think an announcement at IAAPA Expo Europe 2025 might be a good one!
True!
I think you need to create a podcast called the field that is covering the construction work
This will be a series throughout its construction!

You two should start a podcast
Proper Marcus style video
Its 10 minutes from my parents house so I can't wait! I went to Florida earlier this year and going again next year to Epic Universe.
They haven't announced it's definitely happening yet so I'd hold those 'its coming' and 'where it's going to be' lines.
It seems very very likely! We shall see though!
