| Nick's ERT #106- Epic Returns & Theme Park Futures | 27 Jan 2026 | 00:50:55 | |
Nick is joined by Adam for a packed episode of Nick's ERT, diving deep into the latest theme park news from the UK, Europe, and beyond. Adam is gearing up for his second visit to Epic Universe, and the pair discuss what makes a return trip so exciting — and what Adam is most looking forward to experiencing again. Back on home turf, they break down Paultons Park's brand-new Viking land, discuss the arrival of Paw Patrol at Chessington World of Adventures, and speculate on what the future might hold for Chessington — including rumours of a potential Minecraft-themed area. Elsewhere in the UK, they chat about Bluey's continued theme park expansion at Alton Towers Resort, and take a look north to Blackpool, where a dramatic new Gyro Swing ride is set to change the skyline. Internationally, Nick and Adam discuss the newly announced LEGO Space coaster planned for California and Florida, and ask the big question: should something similar come to Windsor to help compete with Universal's expected UK arrival around 2031? They also touch on guest experience concerns at Busch Gardens, questioning locker charging policies, before finishing in Paris with thoughts on Disney Adventure World at Disneyland Paris — including excitement around its upcoming Frozen-themed ride. | |||

Will we see Hogwarts next to Jurassic World? Could the Minions finally conquer Britain? And what will this mean for parks like Alton Towers and Thorpe Park? Join us for a lively discussion filled with excitement, hot takes, and a bit of British theme park banter as we look ahead to what could be a true game-changer on the horizon.
