Cool, never been to Alton Towers but once a year our whole family goes to Drayton Manor. I love the maelstrom.![]()
The new ride at alton towers sucks 2 hour wait to go on a ride designed for 3 year olds , very dissapointing

I was there on the opening day [1st April], didnt even go up in the same direction of it, Bet the queues would be really long![]()
my mate said that his mum was at the start of the line so he got strait to the front but he said it wasnt worth it.

i wouldn't of minded going on it, but i wanted all the big ones first, and by the end there wasnt any time
Queue lengths on the 1st April where 5 hours, had a bit of an shouting match in guest services and ended up walking out with 2 priority passes for Charlie
