Honestly, props to Dan for travelling back to 2009 to look at old Chessington! Thank you!

Looking at old footage of these places is sad. Always breaks your heart to see what theme parks, museums and shopping centres used to be and what’s not there anymore.

I remember “back in the golden days” of exit passes. Because I’m autistic, I could do the whole exit pass thing with my dad as my carer; and this was when little was know about it, and it was essentially unregulated. I managed to do Vampire 16 times in a day when I was 8, which got me a letter from some Merlin high-up

Used to go for day trips quite a bit as a kid. Remember loving the circus there and the Bubbleworks was my favourite ride. The vampire shop in the 90’s was also awesome and the area theming just felt better (but that might have just been because it was through child eyes). Also remember the action man assault course, which was a bit of fun - burned a bit of energy 😆

You only went back to 2009, but if you could have seen it in 1989 or even 1999 you would have been mind blown! The destruction of Chessington started in the early/mid 2000's.

One of my biggest regret is never going on Rameses Revenge before it closed. But holy shit seeing the monorail truly brought a tear to my eye. I have a lot of weird nostalgia around Chessigton despite living 20 mins away from Legoland for most of my life

After the previous Back In Time video I looked up the Legoland StreetView myself; lots of stuff in there I recognised, but there were some areas like the far side of the lake that I think I never actually entered until long after all the old stuff had been removed (I'd seen the Jungle Coaster, but I'm not sure I knew Dino Safari existed).

Nice video, honestly miss most of these attractions even some of them that I didn't even go on. Like Ramses Revenge was a good flat ride for thrill enthusiasts, really missed & think maybe could relocated it? But not completely removed it, bad call there I think from Chessington. Loved Bubble Works, hope when IP runs out on Gruffalo they refurbish into a modern day new bubble works or if not restore it as it was? Was a really good ride, loved the water tunnels & fountain, epic area. About modern day, think in my opinion Scorpion Express needs to be removed 100%, created way for something new, was thinking maybe a proper mine train like BTMRR? Vekoma Mine Train coaster as that type be epic? If not? In a few years if jungle a.k.a Jumanji was extended? Could build it in there? Doubt any of it will happen, but worth considering? But nice video, really enjoyed and look forward to next video. 😀👍
