33:35 Lauren is a great Thorpe Park actor haha and she really kept in character with that German accent which was brilliant. She was also a great dancer for the Hyperia show as well as the Amity High Vs Lycanthorpe High show during Thorpe Park Fright Nights last year but yeh the entire Thorpe Park entertainment team are just brilliant people and really love and are great at what they do all day every day and always keep up the energy even though it must be really long and tiring days for them!

They do their jobs well. It’s always nice to see interaction with the crowd at these events. As much as the event this year felt quite limited, the entertainment team certainly couldn’t be faulted.

Nice vlog, yeah I share your view of Genie + / Lightning Lane - I don’t know the right answer but I imagine there could be a more equitable way to even out the queue times. It essentially becomes pay to win - richer guests have a better experience at the detriment of the folks in standard queue. There’s nothing to be done about the crowd levels, and the operations are fantastic at Disney, but I agree that the Genie + feels like a cash grab. That said when I go to Disney… it sure is temping to pay that extra bit and get on the attractions you want.
@_adventureplanet

Thanks Jacob! If I remember correctly, it was a really busy day that day, probably the worst I had ever seen Hollywood Studios, and there were so many people that were using the LL. It’s just something I don’t agree with, as you say, it’s pay to win and Disney is already horrendously expensive ☹️

Looks like it could be nice. Chessy really needs that extra capacity so they can look at finally upgrading/rebuilding/ demolishing their older rides. Building this really gives the park leeway to close rides like Vampire, Tomb Blaster, & Gruffalo for extended periods or permanently without the massive capacity issues they would have currently.
