[@Divine_Man]

[@salt_vn]

The goat of theme parks

[@wilthomas8518]

I absolutely loved it when you were singing Queen songs because Queen is my favorite band

[@streamsofconsciousness8651]

Havent been to Butlins since I was a kid and must admit I remember it with great fondness. The unlimited rides were amazing for a kid, there was entertainment, food, arcades and so much fun. Wouldnt go now, but it was great back then.

[@PendelSteven]

22:21 Thanks. now I've got the themesong of the tv-series in my head. 28:28 ...... Err... I think we can. 30:58 Welll, not after christmas, but just after St. Nicholas here in the Netherlands... Especially since you then get christmas stuff already whilst still having stuff from the Sint. Otherwise same story.

[@nigelcraft]

Many happy memories from my childhood , we used to go to butlins clacton every summer before it closed , we were gutted as we loved it there especially the big theatre shows in the gaiety theatre then for a few years we went to butlins Skegness but it was never the same as clacton for us , these days they won’t let single people go on a summer break anymore so I haven’t been for a long time but for me it’s not the butlins I remember from being a kid but glad you had a nice new years and can’t wait for Australia

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing!

[@TheStephensonGrechFamily]

Know at Minehead they are supposed to be having a big indoor activity centre. The tug boat was making that noise when we was there in the summer

[@barbarabornholdt2854]

Almost an hour? Yay! Happy new year to my favorite UK couple!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for watching!

[@ArcadeCabNBud]

UK couple: British couple.

[@kylem2755]

Last time we went, th old double inverter (sky master) was in the storage compound behind the Bayside car park

[@HarryHowson]

I’m going Butlins and it looks amazing!!!

[@markmcniven2625]

I worked in Butlins pwllheli in 1990. As an 18 year old & it being my first job & away from home, it was brilliant. Basically being paid to be on holiday.

[@BottedBlake]

Havent been to Butlins since I was 4 years old.. Seeing all this stuff gives me the ultimate nostalgia!

[@FrugalAnimalKeeper]

I feel very sorry for the hardworking Environment team who had to clean up after all that confetti. Cleaning one of the larger rooms you stayed in absolutely filled with that confetti was a nightmare in itself. I'm glad you had an awesome time though. It looked fabulous. Hats off to all the Hardworking Butlins staff who worked over the Christmas and New Year period. Without those very under appreciated staff who work in the background, your holidays wouldn't be so joy filled. Well done to the cleaners, and kitchen staff, ride workers, maintenance team, and all of the staff who go unnoticed on your Holiday Breaks. You are amazing. X

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We had such a great time and well done to all of the staff.

[@Alice-ub2kq]

Take that tribute was excellent x

[@rosieandmonty]

Happy New Year! Cheers to Singapore, Australia and Malaysia! 🎉

[@amytrott6162]

Just come back ourselves from minehead for newyear. Done every year for the past 13 except for lockdown year obvs. Another fantastic year. Entertainment fab, food in premium dining absolutly beautiful. Well done butlins. Been going to butlins for 35 years. Although some major changes over the years. Still manages to give kids the full thrill they seek when away on holidays.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such a great night!

[@roxiesgalaxyclub6568]

I was binge watching your other butlins vlogs yesterday so I’m very happy u made another one. Hope you enjoyed your break!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for watching!

[@sandradowling4605]

Brilliant......what a super night xxx

[@GlintOrothorn]

I loved seeing you two celebrate new years at one of your favorite resorts. I hope this year will serve you well and good luck on your mega trip

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@XFXRyan99QPR]

HAPPY NEW YEAR Theme park worldwide

[@JARRE115]

Happy New Year to you both Shawn and Charlotte and very best wishes to you and your families. My family spent many years at Minehead Butilins over the years and made a lot of happy memories there. Brilliant vlog as always and it brought back a lot of happy memories for us all. Really enjoyed watching it. Thank you so much for all of your effort and hard work that goes into the channel and we look forward to many more vlogs in 2023. All the very best to everybody on the channel for 2023. Cheers, Mark👍

[@allanallen1835]

behind the boating lake,the building used to be where you went for breakfast and lunch. i remember taking bread from the building directly outside and feeding the ducks. the swimming pool was further down. happy days.

[@chrisbaker9767]

Excellent video Shawn and Charlotte, from Butlin's Minehead Resort in this series of vlogs! In this video, we share everything we got up to on the first day of our holiday, including a full tour of our Standard Room. We also head to the Fairground and share on ride povs from all of the different rides on offer. Along with that, we take you on a tour of the Skyline Pavilion along with sharing highlights from the awesome entertainment throughout the 4 different venues on New Year's Eve! I can write to see vlog two on the channel and keep the good videos coming on the channel. Happy new year to you both as well.

[@PendelSteven]

Seems like it was the same nearly stormy weather at the other side of the channel. Well, I know Minehead is technically across and then around if you keep sitting on your imaginative ship, but wind doesn't care about that, ey? It just blows across, doesn't care wether over land or sea. We're in fairer weather now this video is up. Thank god. Happy new year and best wishes!

[@atlantisportal249]

That looked like had such good time there! Look like lot fun too! I hope see more great things soon. ^-^

[@janedicks8387]

I go every year in September with my mom friends. Love it

[@gwburletson]

There was a double swing invertor ship when i worked in Minehead back in 2003 ! The top spin was originally at brighton pier in 1999/2000 then painted purple it opened at bognor Regis butlins then moved to Skegness after bognor

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Classic!

[@PickleYT13]

My favourite time of the year

[@TotallyNotPixelatedYT]

I love butlins. I've been but I went when I was 2 years old so I don't remember going but hopefully I can go again soon.

[@brannigg]

I stayed there last year in a silver apartment I think, it was a great week loads to do with my grandson, accomadation was absolutly fine, the pool awesome, the acts & staging really impressive, such good value for money

[@jlhp]

I went to minehhead last year and I found it quite good but not quite as good as Skeggness (the one i go to the most). Also, you know the pins in the gift shop, I have over 100 of them after going every year once or twice since i was like 6

[@jorjafoxluvr]

In Canada they are called 'bumper cars' sooo kinda the point to bump into people LOL Happy New years!

[@bowsersean8098]

I found it funny when Charlotte was saying she soaked in the rain at 3:57

[@DisneyMarkUK]

Brilliant! What a perfect way to bring in the new year. Thanks for sharing your Butlins adventure.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks Mark!

[@SullyTheCollabGuy]

When I went back there in March last year the dodgems were not working Which when I went there the first time round to Butlins minehead I spent about over an hour on the dodgems because it was not busy

[@jkayrichardson3366]

I never went to Minehead Butlins as a child, Skegness was my butlins, but I remember seeing it advertised in the brochures and being marketed as the higher class butlins compared to Skeggie

[@banonjj151]

Happy new year!!! Only ever been to minehead for the darts. 2 months to go not like I'm counting 😅

[@wendelcleghorn7950]

Looks like a good time! Happy New Year!

[@attractionshubno1]

Great Day One and great first Vlog of 2023 Shawn and Charlotte

[@kingben4585]

I haven't been here for years! I think the best part of my trip was the 2 floor high ropes. Hope you had a fantastic time!!

[@Jason-Clark235]

This is going to be a good video!

[@Wickerlad_2002]

Happy new year! Heres too 2023. I really enjoyed the first vlog of 2023 and i cant wait for the vlogs from the 3 week mega trip. Thankyou for helping me find a love for Theme Parks, me my dad and brother have booked to stay at thorpe shark cabins and do 2 days at the park cannot wait!

[@timhart7607]

I stayed there with my family in the 1980s , there used to be a monorail and a chairlift and the fun fair had a trabant, paratrooper, gallopers, dodgems, big wheel and a large train and car tracked ride. And it also had a minuature railway

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Used to love the monorail as Skegness!

[@bowsersean8098]

I found it funny when Charlotte screamed on the ride at 9:00

[@helenknight1168]

Hello! I just wanted to know if you went in the arcades! The merlins and the arkade! I used to go everyday when I visited my nan! Anyways great video again guys!

[@LewisThomas-ux6zp]

Yeah butlins skegness should be awesome this year because of the fairground expansion and new park.

[@loulove321]

I'd love to visit Butlin's again as an adult, I used to go to Minehead Butlin's every year from about the age of 5 to 12, and whenever we visit Minehead, I always remember happy times spent there during the October half term!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s such a fun place to visit!

[@Dazalton]

It’s worth noting, at Bognor and MInehead they are building a new indoor leisure building, which will house things like interactive games, laser tag, etc.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Very exciting to hear!

[@brettkeepin808]

I remember when the skyline was first put up, they used to have a trapeze show going on in the day 👍

[@catherineclark4484]

Went to butlins as a little girl in pwthelli, would love to go back, it looks really nice, happy new year

[@ericanderson7454]

You'll love Australia.... take a trop to the Blue Mountains and the Three Sisters... there is a mine trolly ride down and back up with excellent views that is practically a coaster credit LoL. Go to the Ricks Market in Sydney and the Victoria Market in Melbourne. The thing I have to warn you about Australia the most is you will not want to go home. It has a vibe that really will suit both of you.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We’re so excited!

[@ericanderson7454]
