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.

Excellent vlog as always, we are currently stopping at Thorpe Park, and like Alton Towers they do seem to have problems getting rides open in the morning, however by 11 everything was open and they and the operations on every ride we went on (a we went on a lot) were excellent, especially on hyperia.

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks so much Richy. Very similar experience for me. Operations on rides that were open were generally very good. Hyperia operations are simply outstanding though, crazy how good they are!

Awesome vlog love okterbefest at Thorpe 😊

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks for watching Chris! I’m really missing that Bratwurst I had yesterday 😍

[@MRKAINE1]

Me and my mates were stuck on vortex with the restraints not being able to open for a good 10mins so that’s the reason it broke down 😂

[@_adventureplanet]

Glad you finally got out 😄

[@Terri-e8j]

Super vlog, thanks for all the info! Those entertainers look crazy 😂 I’d love to know why the splashdown isn’t working again on Hyperia, it’s brand new! I also worry about Stealth. The launch IS Stealth for me, I’d be gutted if it changed.

[@_adventureplanet]

Haha they were great fun 😄 I think it’s just been switched off but I’m really not sure why, it’s still (sort of) summer. I hope Stealth stays in its current form for a long time yet!

Good vlog. Row 3 in Single Rider is very good. I think we are all just waiting for them to install a front row queue for Hyperia.

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks Niall, much appreciated! To be honest, I’m surprised it wasn’t something done during initial construction. I’m almost at the point where I’m willing to pay someone 😅

[@Theme_Park_Mad]

Great vlog as usual, shame to see hyperia's splash down not working atm/switched off & saw the ride closed all day merlin definitly needs to start focusing on that. But awsome video

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks my friend. The splashdown is a strange one for sure. I don’t believe that after just a few months it can be broken in anyway, there must have been a decision made to switch it off, but I’m really not sure why…

[@keiranhyre750]

Brilliant vlog mate 😊

[@_adventureplanet]

Thanks Keiran, appreciated buddy

I'm going on the 27th it's my birthday!!! So sad I'm going to miss out on my birthday but going back in October 5th hopefully up and running by then

[@_adventureplanet]

Happy Birthday for the 27th! Hopefully you’ll get a ride on Hyperia on the 5th October. It’ll be Fright Nights then so you’ll even be able to ride it in the dark 😊

[@MortalKoaster]

Shows looked great, pity about the ride downtime ☹️ Looking forward to Fright Nights this year though as I didn’t go last year!

[@_adventureplanet]

Oktoberfest was really fun! Hopefully the ride availability will be better for Fright Nights.

Great vlog, as always! As a few other vloggers have said - and I agree - Thorpe's Oktoberfest has an identity crisis this year! Playing [German] Jingle Bells - really?! From the few vids I've seen. this year Towers' Oktoberfest wipes the floor with Thorpe's for size, shows, food variety and atmosphere. Just make sure you stay until the very end at Towers next weekend as the atmosphere usually sky rockets when it gets darker after ride close!

[@_adventureplanet]

It was definitely slightly peculiar in terms of song choice this year for sure. Really looking forward to the version at Towers, I’m trying to avoid spoilers for it 😄 Will definitely be staying until the 8pm close!
