I love that you’re just chatting away like normal while being thrown around upside down as if it’s nothing 😂😂
I was just thinking that exact same thing!!
I’m sure you have read up on it all now but Flambards has a huge history, it opened up in 1976 as an Aero Park to house aeroplanes and the Victorian Village was built in 1979 so yeah the rides came after !! The Huss Frisbee came from Pleasure Island, the Rocking Tug came from American Adventure and the Super Star was owned by Scott Manning and used to travel
It sure is a park with a great history!
Theme Park Worldwide there are a few railways in Cornwall for your adventure Shawn channel and they are definitely worth a visit
Shame that they have removed all the planes there used to be loads of them. They were still there last time I went in the early 90’s
Coaster crazy I watched ur flambards blog I loved it
I swear the log fume has been out of use for 10 years 😂
"Nice bit of Sainsbury's theming" 🤣🤣
I always to call flambards, the park behind Sainsbury's.
Charlotte: "Everyone: 'Thunderbolt looks too intense for me'"
Shawn: "The Park is dead today"
I used to work in the shop at the front of the park about 10 years ago. It looks EXACTLY the same with the same products I used to price. You are correct that it is indeed TAT 😂😂
I remember I went on thunderbolt when I was like six, it was my first intense ride and we didn’t know it was gonna be so intense and I cried the entire time 😂
Im going here next year, Having a week in Newquey, I did do Camel creek when it was under the Crealy banner, That Superstar was run like i thought it would be sadly, Family park isn't it. They are much better on the travelling circuit. Enjoyed the vlog and impressed with Flamabards. Such a good selection of parks in the UK but the public only support Merlin
It’s certainly important to support as many theme parks and fairs as possible, more so than ever at the moment!
Wow these fast uploads are really helping me from not being bored
That’s great!
You would love the black country museum if you loved the Victorian experience!
And Beamish
I’ll definitely have to check them out
Welcome to Cornwall, lovely to see you at our local park and looking forward to see what you think of Camel Creek. We are going back to Newquay Zoo next week for my son's birthday, another lovely place to visit xx
Thank you! Have a great time
I’m going to Alton towers in a few weeks, but I’m really badly sunburnt rn and especially on my shoulders, let’s hope my sunburn can fade before I go on the smiler for the first time.
I always go on holiday to Devon and Cornwall and make sure to visit Flambards every time. It's a great family park :)
I love Flambards. I went as a child and returned as a late 30 something and enjoyed it equally as much. The victorian village is brilliant.
Good to see you two coming down here to the south west again!
Great to be in Cornwall!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide The carousel was built in 1980
I remember going on Thunderbolt as a kid and not expecting it to be so intense, I felt sick for the rest of the day 😂
I had no idea we had a walkthrough attraction like that in Europe, let alone here in the UK. Absolutely stunning.
It’s awesome!
I went to this park a few years ago and loved it!!
I grew up in Devon and remember seeing adverts for this on the TV. Still don't feel like I'm missing out on much.
Loving seeing all these smaller UK parks. Haven't been to many of them but I cant wait to start visiting them!
Thank you!
the victorian museum was the highlight love historical stuff like that.
It sure is!
Went there during their late night riding and fireworks. An amazing show and the whole parks atmosphere was great! Would highly recommend!
I would highly recommend Beamish Museum if you haven't been before. It's the biggest outdoor museum in the UK and is filled with things to do and see. The entire place is set in different eras such as 1820s, 1910s and 1940s. It's located near Sunderland and showcases how life used to be in the North East of England back in the Victorian age.
They also do different events throughout the year such as Halloween.
Well worth a visit if you are ever up here again.
Also Black Country Museum in Dudley is good too, pretty much the same as Beamish
The world is full of anchors 😜
if you like the victorian walk through then go to the black country museum in birmingham where the entire thing is a old victorian town with old vintage fair as well
It’s in Dudley
I love the hornet coaster and the drop tower
Same but it took 1 hour for my family to convince me to go on hornet 🤣
Everyone on the drop-tower: Arghhhh
Shawn: ...
Seeing Skyforce was a real blast to the past for me; it used to be Pendulus from Pleasure Island, my old local park! Really nice to see it still going strong over there.
I was here 2 weeks ago & it wasn't busy at all. All the rides were working & I started off with 5 continuous rides on the hornet. There weren't any queues at all for any of the rides so it was really good. I didn't really enjoy sky force as I had sore shoulders when I came off. On the log flume, when you got back to the start the operator asked if you wanted to go again. I had the baked potatoes with cheese as well. They only downside was, in the indoor exhibits, everyone kept bunching up & I kept holding back to let people get a bit infront of me but then more people would come.
Good to hear that you had a great visit!
That's a blast from the past! The dark ride tent used to be a 3D (red&blue glasses) dome cinema and was projected all around you, scared the poop out of me as a 6yr old. The ride itself used to be down by the log flume and had a hydraulic cover which would fold over the top of your kart while the ride was spinning round making it very dark. The dino express I'm sure was a land of little rabbits or something and the dinosaur nursery was the 'gus hunnybun burrow' where you walked underground and viewed all the rabbit warrens. Great to see they have tried to keep it updated.
The amount of money I used to have off my parents to drive the (now removed) remote control boats where the small lake is by the mini-golf and they used to have a rainbow bumpy slide next to the drop slide.
Ahhh memories.
Thanks for sharing!
Amazing, I went to the Flambards over 30 years ago as a child and have fond memories, it was called the Flambards Village back then and the museum and blitz area hasn’t changed one bit. The log flume was around then, but many of the other rides weren’t there at all. After seeing this video I defiantly would love to go back soon.
It’s such a great park!
OMG That village was everything! Your right the sign advertising the park is rumbish!
the Hornet was one of my first proper roller coasters too! so Charlotte is not alone xD ironically It was around 15 years ago when I last went too, before this was the ladybird junior coaster at light water valley :) awesome vlog as well guys nice to see this park still doing well after all these years
They should really get a new coaster tho
They defo don't have the money lol
@@dan-ks1yd idk, they actually might have the money tho, tbh they r saving up since they got sky force
@@asterisks3062 They have added a new mine train ride this year , so yeah they definitely do
1st ever park on TPW ! very cool !! memories for charlotte as well! not a big park from what i can tell! it's nice to see smaller parks getting love on your wonderful channel! i really look forward to your vlogs! 2 thumbs up as always! charlotte doing an outstanding job of recording for the video as well , way to go maam!!
Thank you
The park sits on the edge of Royal Naval Air Sea Rescue culdrose airport. The airport is huge, but you cant see it from the park. The original owner of the park was a former naval officer, who brought part of the airport from the ministry of defence. The airport is sometimes called H.M.S Seahawk, and is home to Britains largest helicopter squadron. The park probably has a height restriction because it is so close to an airport.
Thanks for the information!
Love this little park
Glad to hear Charlotte experienced some nostalgia at this park! These vlogs are really powering me through these times!
That’s great to hear!
OMG I WAS THERE I SAW YOU HAHAHHAHA
haha i went on the 12th
Hi Shawn , I’ve just done a bit of research into the Victorian street exhibit ( as it does looks loads better than expected !) . So that entire area in the 70s used to be an ‘aerodome’ with plane exhibits etc and then they put in a couple of shops. There is a tv show called ‘flambards ‘ which the shops are modelled on . Obviously it grew to 60 shops over the decade and then in the 80s they put in the blitz exhibit . Keep up the great vlogs
Thank you for sharing!
Honestly shawn some of them ideas for the victorian village was outstanding. You should work high up in the industry with your knowledge and expertise .you could literally transform the fortunes of theme parks.
Thank you!
I remember doing rocking tug in butlin's bognor regis, about 4 year ago, took kids on and I made the mistake of sitting on end , and felt sick lol.. that walk through attraction looks awesome, reminded me of the one in basingstoke, very immersive, there were some shops with people behind the counter to tell you about the history, and you were able to buy boiled sweets with old vouchers you were given.
Since they have worked with SBF before, maybe an SBF spinner is in their future. I think a Gravity Group Woodie would also work very well
I went to alton towers in 2015 and I saw you at the exit and I said about that I live in Cornwall and Flambards is the best theme park in the south west. Also from 2005 to 2007 I work here
Have to laugh how Shawn can chat and sing on the Thunderbolt ride..i wouldn't even get on it lol
The Sky force Huss frisbee was relocated pleasure island in Cleethorpes.
It was indeed
The entrance to Flambards was moved when they built Sainsbury’s.
We used to go every summer when on holiday, on one of the firework nights. My daughter and I spent one afternoon just riding the thunderbolt.
But with the entrance being moved from one side of the park to another it meant it was too far to run for the last bus back towards Penzance
I never clicked so fast lol 😂
Hey Coaster Wen u doing vlogs u should do one with theme park I miss them
Same mate
Haha same :)
I love your channel your so nice to your fans i love when you go to fairs with slothy vlogs
WestHam Dalek EMPROR he is doing theme parks
Just not the bigger ones
If you loved the history walkthrough, I would highly recommend Eden Camp or Beamish the next time that you are up here in the north east ☺️ I also would recommend The Forbidden Corner for a completely new experience. Great vlog as always!
Thanks for your suggestion
The indoor ride is the same as Mulan from pleasure beach Great Yarmouth
Thunderbolt was the very first ride I went on that goes upside down 😂
I remember going here when I was about 4 which was 10 years ago - when you're so young and can't go on anything 😂
best bit there is the blitz britain museum, i live in Newquay so it was the place to go when i was young, i loved that museum bit the best, the smell, everything. They found the shop there with all the stuff in it and built the museum around it, it's a real time capsule.
i really hope they get a new coaster in the next few years, it would draw in so many more people, also that log flume gets you soaked so Charlotte was in luck :)
She’s pleased it was closed!
A bonus as well is that yo7 can take dogs into the park which was handy last year when we visited while on holiday. You can’t take them into the village though but great to be able to visit the park when you have dogs with you
Have you watch the new series inside legoland on channel 5? If not I would highly recommend. Also I enjoy the videos. 😀
RNG Loopy I’ve seen it it’s so good
Let’s Explore 👍🏻
We have indeed!
I’ve been to from mum before it’s very cool I like the Britain in the bullets but have not done the Victorian village I don’t think
The walk through was part of “The Flambards Experience” before the most resent rebrand, the walk through is brilliant, I remember going there as a kid through the war parts, originally that walk through and the blitz was the entrance to the park and you walked through there first - really hope you enjoyed yourself 👍
It sure is awesome!
I love you guys. Smashing coasters all around the world and then ....flambards. awesome work. Fantastic advertising for the smaller local parks .👍
Thank you!
I JUST rode all of the Alton Towers rides I I am 9
no one cares
I was fantasy island when you was I'm a big fan
I'm sure they brought the rockin tug carousel and balloon rides from the American adventure theme park when it shut down
Not the balloon ride but yes you're right
balloon race has been there for about 20 years- ever since I was a kid!
42:00 I still remember I was going through the Britain in the Blitz with my parents but halfway, I got a headache from the noise.
I could spend all day in that Blitz place never mind the park. Id be hours just reading all the newspaper clippings you walked straight past 😂 I really want to go here, bit from from Blackpool though
I’d love more time to see it all!
Ah yes, Flambards. Haven't been there in a couple of years, which is odd seeing as though I only live a couple of miles away
Its a shame they have chopped back all the trees in hornet. it made it more fun.
@@morph- I know. Those trees really were a good little bit of natural theming
@@theironix8119 same with the helicopters at Legoland they have completely opened it up. I liked It when there was all nice trees around the ride and now they have opened it all up.
My closest theme park as I live about 3 miles away. In my opinion Flambards is nothing to wright home about but I still love the Blitz & the village. Also it used to be called the Aeropark as it was a dumping group for Culdrose naval base.
That themed victorian village is fantastic, was not expecting that!
It’s epic!
Im glad you finally got to Flambards, our local theme park lol and loved how you liked the Victorian village and Britain in the Blitz , There were also displays of retired military aircraft which was apt because its next to RNAS Culdrose. I also vividly remember the yellow submarine.
It was great to visit!
You can never resist sliding the Demon Drop
hold on tight this is a fast ride
Loved Flambards growing up! Didn’t know any different, then I went Disneyland and Alton Towers 🤣 now it’s not the same 🤣 great video guys! 😘
Right I have just pressed the play button then pause, I'm going out on a limb here, but when you go into the village and air craft area you are going to be completely blown away, if you were wearing socks you are going to have them blown clean off! I first went in 1980 and here and Babbacombe model village set my dream to own my very own themed attraction (still working on it) But I hope you get the same jaw dropping moment I had 40 years ago, right will press play now and see what you thought :)
Well you loved it, we hoped you would, normally you can go upstairs in the village as well, did you see the old chemist shop, it was at the end of the village, it was all shut up for nearly 100 years, it was moved lock stock and barrel to Flambards cobwebs and all! and Charlotte to remember world in miniature. another place for us, the dinosaurs there came from another little theme park called St Agnes Leisure Park (my dream park) so the Dinos are very well travelled around Cornwall. sorry for such a long comment and added reply, we have been looking forward for you to see Flambards for so many years, as always you both have done the place proud.. But it's really true about sunny weather we do really bad in shops and attractions on sunny days, they really all go done the beach, on a over cast day it would of been rammed!
I absolutely loved it!
Was the ride skyfall from pleasure island in Cleethorpes where it was called pendulous
It sure is!
Beamish of down south this little museum bit ♡ xxx
12:55 I would be vibing xD idc if I hate heights theme parks are the best
I loved the Victorian village!! I hope you can go back soon and take more video. Really cool!!
Such a great park!
Such a lovely park. Is there many more parks that you haven't film either in the UK or the world.
There's definitely one he hasn't done, atleast on video. And that's Sundown Adventureland
He hasn’t filmed any of the 4 Gulliver’s Parks or Wheelgate plus a couple of other smaller places
Hopefully one day he will film them.
There’s still plenty more to visit!
Other supermarket's are available 😂😂😂 Lol xxx
Hey Shawn are you and charlotte going to be coming to pleasure wood hills or Great Yarmouth pleasure beach 🖤
We will be very soon!
Hi shawn and Charlotte really enjoyed the vlog looks like a lovely park. Loved the victorian walk through so much detail just amazing. You two were like 2 peas in a pod on the ferris wheel it did make me laugh. Cornwall is such a beautiful part of the country amazing beaches too . Thankyou for sharing your adventures with us . Love to you both love Tracey xx
Thank you!
You may have been on Skyforce before as it's a relocation from a certain defunct Lincolnshire theme park 😉
It sure is!
I live in cornwall and all I will say is "Hornet sweet coaster, but she got the sharpest of brakes" Locals call that ride "Nut Cracker" for a reason.
What a fantastic park! I feel like I’ve had a day out myself watching your vlog, thank you Shawn and Charlotte.
Thank you for watching
If you like aviation and history there are 2 amazing museums in Germany, technik museum in Sinsheim where they have a Concorde and the Russian variant and a couple of other ones, and in technik museum Speyer they got a real Russian spaceship and some war boats. It are really 2 amazing places. And again amazing vlog, as always!!
Thanks for your suggestion!
Always went to Flambards when we visited family
In Cornwall. I remember them having a paintball shooting gallery? Would love to go back as I never really appreciated the Victorian village area as a kid!
We didn’t see one but we possibly missed it!
Sky force used to be Pendulum at Pleasure Island :) glad the ride survived ❤️
It did indeed
My predictions are correct
I lived next to Flambards and this was my first rollercoaster too.
I was there about 35 years ago and the only thing I remember was the blitz and the Victorian village
We have a place in the North East of England called Beamish that is very similar to vicorian village at flambards and war themed one called Eden Camp
Hope you and Charlotte had a lovely time :)
You asked why anyone would want to buy stale cake. 1) Two pence a bag was very cheap. 2) You could make puddings with stale cake. If you were poor, it was better than nothing at all to eat. Stale cake isn't sold in bakery's today, they just throw it away now! But lots of cake lovers still use up left over cakes in different ways... just Google the subject of stale cake and you'll see what I mean. The Victorian section of this museum reminds me of Madame Tussauds in London in the 1980s. The war time street was excellent... thanks for another great trip!!😊
Thanks for sharing!
I had a similar experience last year where I went to Sesame Place in 10 years to ride Oscar's Wacky Taxi. The park used have a giant playground area and added some flats and a smaller, newer structure.
Omg flam bards was the park I always went to every year on my summer holidays in Cornwall and I have a photo with that Humpty Dumpty such memories for me xx
Looks like hornet has aged well! It looks like a very smooth ride. I like to see how much you guys also enjoy and can appreciate the smaller parks they really need our support especially in these times and more than the larger parks.
They do indeed and we’ll be supporting as many theme parks and attractions as possible!
Ah I spent a lot of the 90s here with my family. The Victorian/Blitz area freaked me out SO bad when I was a kid 😅
As an aside, my grandad was an evacuee from London to Somerset which is where my family is still based.
Loving the vids keep up the good work hope you and Charlotte are well and healthy x
20:39 I LOVE THEM TYPE OF RIDES I ALWAYS GO ON THEM AND DANCE XD
Love the museum and walk through section!! Blitz museums scare me from school!! Eden camp lol Xxx
Thanks for watching
I love sainsburys themeing
Good quality theming
I remember being at Flambards in Cornwall with my classmates during my final year at post 16 education
Gets on the sky force:
Shawn: talking like skyforce isnt scary
Me if I went on it: *Passes out*
-lol I would never be able to go on it in scared of everything, my fav rude at flambards is the big swings
