Pleasure Beach episode 1/ 6 (Blackpool) 

“Get this thing off and get the bloody thing open” best motto ever

Jim appearing over the fence and the immediate "hello, jim" was like something out of sesame street, that knocked me out. "right, jim".

19:48 "Bert, you on your way back?" "Looks like I'm gonna be Jim, yeah." "No, not looks like you're going to, you're on your way back" 😂

“JOHN... THAT IS A NEW MACHINE... you’ve spilled water everywhere, you’ve raced it round, it’s not a bloomin whatever that tracks called, Silverstone.” 10/10

Give me a cigarette and get me the local MPs! it’s like a Lancashire version of Dallas 🤩

Amazing time machine. In the 90s they didn't even have a name for whiplash he called it shock waves. Cups of tea all round fixed this incident. Today people would be suing for thousands!

This was filmed before May 1997 as both Blackpools MP’s would change in May 1st that year with the Labour Landslide.

favourite bit 11:55 when the Northerner lady boss says "bastards, get me a cigarette somebody" and the boss's assistant springs into action , hands her a cigarette and instantly lights it for her. like it was part of his job description.

I wish Blackpool and the pleasure beach was like this today, sad how things have declined over the years and some people call it progress.

survivors of the avalanche crash probably got free season tickets and a small bung. it's a fairly tame ride, but is very risky as the rollercoaster train is free running and not attacked to any tracks. if this happened in America everyone on that ride would be suing for millions. amazingly the avalanche or is it called bobsleigh ? is still there in 2o23 and operational. I've been going to this Northern ride park since the 1960s, and it's still a great experience. although I preferred it in the olden days 60s, 70s and 80s, even the 90s, when health and safety wasn't much of a concern, it made the rides that bit more adventurous.

the avalance crashes and injured and shocked riders are taken to medical centre '' be with you shortly and by the way if anyone wants a cuppa after we'll sort that out, alright " most british thing ever

Thanks for uploading an episode of this fantastic series in clear quality! Do you have the other episodes?

This is a cracking home town park

Nice to see these still around i have myown copys from wen on uk horizen this is my childhood here. Wen fun house still stood the whip. Turtle chase black hole ocutpus ive meet keith he was the lovelist bloke ever

That's me and my sister at 8:22. Someone told me this had been uploaded to RU-vid, had to see it for myself haha.

I know this is old but, removing that injured boy and making him walk from the coaster without real paramedics is shocking. And then at 22:20 the Director attends the incident and first asks, 'Any Media phone calls yet' and secondly asks, 'anyone injured' wtf, get your priorities right!!

Interesting,these appear to be the original BBC transmitted episodes,not the butchered UK Horizons versions.

What amazing job she has done as manager director. Keep up good work. Ik some people will disagree but icon is great and Geoffrey will be happy

6:22 “which brings us to our biggest hot ice outburst of the week” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The canned screams. lol

Can't blame Amanda for getting pissed

The staff are very good with the public it seems

All the rollercoaster tycoon sounds 😂

17:22 assaulted one of my beavers! 🤣🤣

That guy on the Pepsi Max at the beginning lol ohh ohhhh

I've been watching various Blackpool documentaries the past few days and it seems the attitude of business owners there is abysmal. They got by without business acumen or standards for so long they fail to realise when things become a struggle they have to make a reasonable effort. Blackpools demise cannot just be put down to changing times, they failed to uphold any standards. What a dump.

Being manager there from his POV at his time…I wouldn’t even know what to do…too much noise, stress and things braking down everywhere 😂

Thats sick assualt bradley bear thier no need all the time pleasure i nver seen security

Jeez! Amanda is a hottie spoilt child, I love it! Bravo!

The big boss is an obnoxious bully. Seriously thinks he's the ant's pants.

What's the theme tune to this please

Bit harsh making her describe the incident in front of the lads. Bet she was traumatised

Get it off out the road and GET THE BLOODY THING OPEN!

10:13 Keith thats what we call sods law XD

Gypsy's assaulting the Beaver lol!

That's why I hate Amanda Thompson. She's so disrespectful and rude. Yeah ok she's got great ideas and she has improved the park alot but.. she can't treat people like that & Also instead of fixing the problems on the rides, they just send them out like jeez.

I know JR very well and his children,

It used to be the largest theme park in the uk wtaf

Shes such a diva wtf

Hate the part where they are making a point they assaulted a woman doesn’t matter who was in the costume man or woman they still did it either way gender doesn’t come into it assault is assault

Have to pay to enter the Pleasure Beach now

6:28

JR fookin jobsworth . shouting at his No 2 in front of everybody, would not last 5 minutes in todays world

Does Amanda Thompson still smoke

Amanda Thompson hasn't changed by the looks of it, ordering someone to give her a cigarette now she moans about the passholders and the enthusiasts that film in the park who get the punters in because people watch their youtube channels and it gets people wanting to go to the parks

If that happened i wd go ride again i dont ride myself

Hi Zoe 🖐

It's all change now you have to pay on entry this is to keep out the riff raff

The last time I was at the Pleasure Beach, way back in 2002, I remember it was £5 to go on 'Valhalla'.. I'd hate to think how much those rides cost now!

The lady bear my sister look video with niece along time she now thirty now over twenty six yrs ago

17:21 you couldn’t say that in 2021 without investigation

All the money that family have they could pay someone to Teach there daughter manners...unbelievably rude.😮

How did the security get away with telling people they were under arrest, they only have the same powers as a member of public and should therefore state they are under a Citizen’s arrest under section 24A of the police and criminal evidence act with police being called immediately, they should also never lock anyone in a room for detention on there own! 🤣 if this was happening now they would be seeing themselves in court being sued.

who does Amanda think she is at all.... Looking at her today shes aged badly

Why couldnt got british skaters gv them the opportunity

Solicitor does not work whereas KARMA works better

DOE jobsworths

That kid is 37 now lol

All Dix

Her attitude stinks. Doesn't matter if she is the owners daughter

As a local. This was a heavily cringe watch

Security: "I'm arresting you" Me. PMSL security have the same rights as average joe if he tried to arrest me i'd laugh at him... Private security arresting people... Please...
