We always had a day on the pier when we used to go to Butlins at Clacton. Glad it's keeping up it's tradition of fast slides. They used to have a fantastic bumpy slide on Clacton Pier that was so fast you would always go to the end of the landing stage. It was brilliant-we used to pick up our mats and then go straight up and go again to see who could land the furthest on the landing stage going down!! Absolutely love this, obviously it has changed a lot since the early eighties, but nice to see it's still thriving and full of rides where there is something to suit everyone. I actually found your channel when looking for old Butlins footage, now I watch most of your theme park/funfair blogs. Really enjoying them, brilliant channel.
I really like these small pier amusement parks. Something about them just makes them so nostalgic and romantic, very different from the big theme parks.
Another amazing vlog, really enjoyed and always do look forward to the next vlog. Really good fireworks display, had a lot of big bangs in there and was really cool display to watch especially through screen. Got a good selection of rides here, could maybe do with bit more selection of coasters? Alongside upside down coaster? Maybe a spinning mouse coaster? Keep log flume as would like to get that water ride credit when & if visit in future? Would be interested in seeing more permanent additions here aswell maybe bigger main coaster built into indoor section or another level added on the pier building? With maybe a rollercoaster inside or more attractions? Or if not all current attractions moved up a few levels? Creating future indoor ride space for more additions in future. But good vlog, shame you couldn't at the time get Pavilion rides, but it is what it is. Really enjoyed vlog, didn't think they needed two Ferris wheels, could of compromised and maybe gone with one & charged a price that suits both to make a profit. But again its happened. Cheers again & yep will get out there & will keep on riding. 😀👍
Clacton Pier is ace and I’m amazed you have been since having the channel !! It’s gone through so many changes over the years and £3 for the Ferris Wheel is a bargain, can’t believe there is 2 of them lol
Thank you so much for this video! I was a ride operator at Clacton Pier in 2018/19 and if I was still living in England I'd probably be working there still. I always wished you guys would visit. I miss my home town so much so thank you for making me feel a little less home sick😊
Hi a quick update on the new coaster at Flamingoland after some delay went yesterday and a lot of work now going on to the bases around the supports Concreting to finish off the bases and the whole area under the ride being finished off plus a large crane in action near the station area Nice to to see progress at last!
@@little.animals Thanks for your reply I was at the park today and a lot of work is being done around the tunnels where the ride goes under ground for a part of its journey.
Great to see you visited clacton. Bet it has changed a lot since you last visited for the better. It’s a great pier. So much to do there now. More and more stuff being added.
I have been going to Clacton every year since I was born and absolutely love it but since lockdown the pier has had a major glow up and pretty much all the rides on the pier are new apart from the helter skelter which is so mad their was never a Miami or a log flume or rollercoaster or anything.
Great vlog Charlotte and Shawn. Enjoy your East Anglian theme park vacation. Sounds like you will be coming to my town once again, Great Yarmouth. Enjoy the snails, the roller coaster and log flume, all classic rides. Love the fireworks 🧨 🎆 at the end. Look forward to your next vlog.
I would like to thank you how you both put a smile on my face with every vlog. Especially in these strange times with a grey summer and the corona going on. Thank you! Greetings from Holland.
Great to see you went to Clacton I thought you would when u found out about it.shame the coaster still isn't up. They did say by sept to me so hopefully. Although when I went in June it was exactly the same then as it is now. Looks like nothing has been done. I'm starting to think they have some technical issues that they can't work out. They said originally it would be open for spring then summer then no word on it.
Another great vlog... You cant beat a fair at night... The lights, the smells and the atmosphere... Great couple and not just regular vlogs, but different vlogs.. That's what sets your channel apart from the rest.., 👍
I was only in Clacton today to see mates and for the airshow, didn't head to the pier as it was pretty busy, but your positive review is pushing us back for a return, nice people down there.
Clacton on Sea is one of my favourite places 😍 I’ve only been once and that was in March 2019 so most of it wasn’t open but that’s how much I loved it! 😄💗 can’t wait to go one day when it’s all open 🙂💗 xx
Beautiful views from the big wheel , but I would be stiff with fear going slow at heights 😱. Been to clacton long time ago... they used to have a really scary ghost train
Loved Clacton ❤ so much has changed there thanks for all the info 😀 👍 wheels are grate you guys are fantastic thanks so much 🙏 so much info 😀 brilliant work both fantastic thanks 😊
Shawn and Charlotte try out Walton pier too next time your in the area five miles or so up the coast from Clacton, they have a classic twister, a spooky gold mine ghost Train and a few other rides to check out.
So I went to Alton Towers for my first Rollercoaster. You recommended 13 when you replied to me but the queue was long and I got dragged onto Oblivion. I then did Nemesis and Wickerman and Thirteen absolutely amazing Rides. Finished with a Front Row Smiler and the Next day well today got back Row Smiler. Love your videos so keep up the good work reason why I went Alton Towers
We bumped into you at Blackpool a couple of weeks ago, now you’re at our home town. Hope you had a nice time. The 2 wheels puzzles all the locals too 🤷🏻♂️
well done both of you at Clacton-on-Sea to visit the pier! In this vlog, we share on ride POV's from all of the major rides at the pier including the Big Wheel, Log Flume, Wild Mouse Coaster, and much more. Along with that, we check out the new Looping Star Coaster, head inside the Seaquarium, and also share highlights from a fantastic firework display above the end of the pier! keep the good wok up on the channel big thumbs up to both of you.
Hey TPW, have you done a vlog on Light water valley yet this season and if not are you planning on doing one because i want to know what your thoughts are on the park after it has had its changes.
Many a happy time visiting Clacton Pier growing up. Now I take my Children there with my Wife. I must admit the owners have dug deep in there pockets to make it modern and family fun. Walton Pier (Walton-on-the-Naze) not far off from Clacton about 15-20 mins away has gone downhill big time. It needs investment like Clacton. Great Video.
They took down the Clacton pier big wheel now, so just the one on the Pavilion. I’m local to Clacton, it has improved a lot over the years under new management. The looping rollercoaster looks ready now, so should be open at some point this year. Can keep you posted on that if you want Shawn 👍
Saying that, been down there today and both big wheels are down. However the rollercoaster is ready and will operate once the weather has improved. It looks amazing and they done a great job.
I saw Shaun and Charlotte at Pleasure wood hills in Lowestoft. I was sitting on the horse and cart. My sister, cousin and friend were sitting in front of them ❤️✌🏻
Great video and content as ever guys but for some parts the view was a bit blurry especially on closer shots so dont know if you have a new camera or what but otherwise all good,cheers guys
Nice firework show although a bit of music would have been good. The fireworks are put on by a company called dynamic fireworks who also do them for great yarmouth pleasure beach

It’s always great to get to some of the smaller seaside amusement parks!
Love Clacton always go on holiday there when I can. This video made me feel very excited to go back there and go on the pier!

The PAvillion wheel is here for the season in celebration of Clacton 150 birthday. The Pier's wheel is permanently here
Thanks for sharing!
Cool piece of info. They look great together. Wish we had this kind of pier in Ireland, but no, we don't. :(
I must say the chemistry between u2 works very well .. always interesting viewing 😃😃
Shawn just needs to ask her to marry her soon make it official
Thank you very much!
Clacton Pier is ace and I’m amazed you have been since having the channel !! It’s gone through so many changes over the years and £3 for the Ferris Wheel is a bargain, can’t believe there is 2 of them lol
It’s a nice little place, the two wheels is quite funny though!
Lovely fireworks Shawn and have a brilliant and lovely evening today I love you Shawn and Charlotte xxxx
Thanks Alfie!

I was just thinking about it nice to know the progress
@@little.animals Thanks for your reply I was at the park today and a lot of work is being done around the tunnels where the ride goes under ground for a part of its journey.
Thanks for the update!
Charlotte is looking extra pretty. You two are such an amazing couple and share so many happy moments together x
She is beautiful and I’m a very lucky man!
I love how quickly you release new content. It's always a pleasure to watch.
Thank you! There’s new videos to enjoy everyday on our channel!
Hi
Wow Shawn, hats off to Charlotte for 3 water rides in 1 day! Nice one Charlotte ... ;-)
I couldn’t believe it! She did very well!

Looking forward to our trip here in October. Been 4 or 5 times over the last 10 years and always have a great time and kids love it
Have a great time!
Great vlog Charlotte and Shawn. Enjoy your East Anglian theme park vacation. Sounds like you will be coming to my town once again, Great Yarmouth. Enjoy the snails, the roller coaster and log flume, all classic rides. Love the fireworks 🧨 🎆 at the end. Look forward to your next vlog.

Love the atmosphere! Thank you!
Those Karts are great fun. Was up at Claccy last year. Great times, Cool place 😎
Love them!
I was operating miami beach 😝 too scared to say hi tho. Glad you enjoyed it!
We had a great time!
Lol
Great video as usual charlotte and sean , putting a lot of smiles on peoples, faces keep it up!
Thank you! We had a fantastic time!
I was only in Clacton today to see mates and for the airshow, didn't head to the pier as it was pretty busy, but your positive review is pushing us back for a return, nice people down there.
What a cool little park the go-karts looked awesome, I'll put that on my list of places to visit. Cheers Charlotte and Shawn!
We had a great time! Thanks for watching!

I live here and if your not at the beach it's pretty gloomy, but it's better than a lot of stuff in the uk
Beautiful views from the big wheel , but I would be stiff with fear going slow at heights 😱. Been to clacton long time ago... they used to have a really scary ghost train
Love the log flume and how Charlotte gets drenched 😂
Same
She’s really coming round to this water rides now!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide
Shawn when you did the roller coaster day challenge in 2018
At some point you and Charlotte should do that for water rides
@@wjt10 is there a National Water Rides day?
@@ElectriKong- no but It would be a funny challenge idea
Lovely to see a firework show, and there are a good amount of rides for everyone!
Wow, I'd even forgotten about it, I haven't been to Clacton since I was probably 5 or 6! Thanks for the vlog
It’s a great little park!
Another great vlog, thanks for sharing this guys, I love Charlottes reaction to water rides hahaha!
Thank you!
When Charlotte said "Click-it" it reminded me to click the thumbs up.
Thank you!
Just watched this video, and remembered we’re the people who were bowling! And took the pic with you
Lobster are blue till you cook them lol.. good video keep it up cant wait till you go to Spain looking hot there..
Oops! Spanish vlogs on the way!
Loved Clacton ❤ so much has changed there thanks for all the info 😀 👍 wheels are grate you guys are fantastic thanks so much 🙏 so much info 😀 brilliant work both fantastic thanks 😊
Thank you! It’s a fantastic pier!
Is it bad to say I prefer how it used to be? Where all the rides used to be inside like the twister and the waltzers etc probably just nostalgic tho
Shawn and Charlotte try out Walton pier too next time your in the area five miles or so up the coast from Clacton, they have a classic twister, a spooky gold mine ghost Train and a few other rides to check out.
Somewhere else I visited as a kid! It’s definitely on our list for when we return to the area next year!
Lovely vlog enjoyed the fireworks and liked how you can use your wristbands in the arcade as well as on rides
Thank you!
It's like a battle of big wheels
The piers is the biggest best cheapest and fastest wheel!! Plus you get the longest go.. and it spins ;)
It is!
Fantastic video Shawn .. and enjoyed those fireworks 🙂
They were great!
So I went to Alton Towers for my first Rollercoaster. You recommended 13 when you replied to me but the queue was long and I got dragged onto Oblivion.
I then did Nemesis and Wickerman and Thirteen absolutely amazing Rides.
Finished with a Front Row Smiler and the Next day well today got back Row Smiler. Love your videos so keep up the good work reason why I went Alton Towers
Sounds like you had a fun day!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Today was meh since Galactica broke down and were stuck in Queue for over an hour when it said 40mins 😂😂
Great Vlog, my cat Tiggy loved the fireworks he kepted trying to catch them with his paw. 🙂
Cute
I’m glad you liked our pier it’s a really great place to just kick back and relax
Awesome vlog Shawn. Keep On Riding 👍🏻👍🏻🎢🎢⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you!
Clacton pier is where I rode my first rollercoaster
That’s awesome!
We bumped into you at Blackpool a couple of weeks ago, now you’re at our home town. Hope you had a nice time. The 2 wheels puzzles all the locals too 🤷🏻♂️
I do find it quite funny how there’s two!

Not yet this season! Hopefully we’ll have chance to pop up soon!
Thanks for the great video. Love your enthusiasm!! 👍😊
Thanks!
Sean and Charlotte I love you both you are so sweet and I love all the information you both provide x
Thank you!
Many a happy time visiting Clacton Pier growing up. Now I take my Children there with my Wife.
I must admit the owners have dug deep in there pockets to make it modern and family fun.
Walton Pier (Walton-on-the-Naze) not far off from Clacton about 15-20 mins away has gone downhill big time. It needs investment like Clacton.
Great Video.
It’s such a great pier!
Fireworks where great, go karts defo give a go.
hate log flumes understand Charlotte but overall great video definitely considerin going there 👍
Thank you!
Yes
Those Dodgems were a huge improvement on those from yesterday's vlog. They look cool and lots of fun.
Definitely!
What currency do you use to pay for the rides (Cash,card,tokens)
Hi guys 😊💞 love Ur vlog hve funnn 🎊🎈🎈💓🤳 beautifulll aquarium 🐟🐠
The go-carts look like a lot of fun
Hi, do you HAVE TO buy a wristband in order to go on the rides? Or can you get tokens or something?
You pay per ride or buy a wristband!
Lobsters don't go red until they are cooked Shawn lol 😂
Why did it not know this!
Loved watching the vid into night fall. Felt as though I was there. Lol.
They took down the Clacton pier big wheel now, so just the one on the Pavilion. I’m local to Clacton, it has improved a lot over the years under new management. The looping rollercoaster looks ready now, so should be open at some point this year. Can keep you posted on that if you want Shawn 👍
Thanks for sharing!
Saying that, been down there today and both big wheels are down. However the rollercoaster is ready and will operate once the weather has improved. It looks amazing and they done a great job.
Another great Vlog as always Shawn and Charlotte
Thanks!
Looping star is opening in October half term. And I go to clacton all the time, 4 times a year!!
I saw Shaun and Charlotte at Pleasure wood hills in Lowestoft. I was sitting on the horse and cart. My sister, cousin and friend were sitting in front of them ❤️✌🏻

It’s on the way!

La la la
Very soon!
Another really nice vlog from another really nice place :-)

Clacton looks a lovely place, bless Charlotte for trying not to crush you on the Twister 😂
It's the backside of Britain.

I’ll be visiting a variety of parks over the next week or so!
Clacton the least sounding seaside name in existence lol but lovely lil place
What do you reckon is the size of this? 3 hectares?
Possibly so!
Hi Shawn what day are you going to Yarmouth pleasure beach
We visited yesterday and our vlog is on the way!
Is there a wristband option for Clacton pier as I am down there for the airshow next week
There is indeed
It kind of reminds me of when I went to Brighton pier last week but they just don’t have the go karts and bumper boats and some others.
Great video and content as ever guys but for some parts the view was a bit blurry especially on closer shots so dont know if you have a new camera or what but otherwise all good,cheers guys
Thank you! Our usual camera is in for a service at the moment, so we’re using a different one!
The famous Butlins breadbin!!!!!!
I saw you at pleasure beach yesterday! When will the video be out!?
It’ll be coming very soon!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thanks
so exited to see the new coaster when i go soon!
I actually kinda wanna meet him on my bday 26th august at Alton towers
Have a fantastic time!

@Simplestuff124 hope you have a nice birthday tomo
Me and The Mrs love watching your Vlogs.. Keep up the good work
Thank you!
There are two Ferris wheels but they both were installed to celebrate 150 years of Clacton
Oh god clacton has changed so much since I've been, I remember inside they had all rides lime dodgems, ghost train, waltzers etc
Im going there soon for 3 days and this is helpful
When are you down in Great Yarmouth? And begs go to pleasure wood hills on friday cuz im going then and i wanna meet u so badddd
Vlogs on the way from Great Yarmouth
Are the bumper boats included in the wristband?
Yes
They are indeed
I’m going here in the last week of the holidays
Charlotte's hair looks beautiful!!!
She is wonderful and I’m a very lucky man!
Nice firework show although a bit of music would have been good. The fireworks are put on by a company called dynamic fireworks who also do them for great yarmouth pleasure beach
Definitely
What time was the fireworks?
9:30pm
Clayton pier is amazing went the other week
Are you using a different camera your sound sounds different 🤔
Our Sony camera is currently in for a service so we’re on a different camera at the moment!
