That field currently has more working rides than Alton Towers and the theming in the field is better than Hyperia and the mud taste better than any off the food served up at any Merlin park.
As a Floridian, you have no idea what you're in for. (I mean that in a good way) Universal is one of the most "bang for your buck" theme parks in the world, I would argue. The level of theming is also going to be completely unmatched all the way to Paris lol...
Can I just say a massive thanks to you for engaging with an EPQ student at my school. I suggested he contact you as you’ve always seemed really approachable and have spoken to my son a couple of times in parks, but to send such an encouraging message to a student who messaged you out of the blue is really appreciated and will certainly help him give context for his project.
I think it’s essential for universal to collab with channels as big as yours. If this HOPEFULLY gets the green light, I have no doubt in my mind, they will ask DigitalDan to be involved. We can’t wait for what’s to come!
i was in school earlier and a boy shouted at the top of his lungs "ITS THE DIGITAL DAN FAN" and i hid behind my bestfriend and was like whyyy, out of everyone why me😭😭 thats what he refers to me as now and whenever he sees me he says "DIGITAL DAN IS MY FAVOURITE UA-camR"
Ain't no way they ain't doing Harry Potter, they'll bleed that franchise for every dime they can get, trust me, it'll be there! It won't be Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic but they'll find a way. Ty for adding another series for us to watch, with TPWITP and now The Field, i'm never gonna miss a piece of theme park news 🙏
The one thing I think they need to keep in mind when they are building this park is that we don't get Paris weather, we need indoor/sheltered parts and making sure that a rainy day doesn't ruin the experience. I wonder if the 'jumping coaster' themed to Donkey Kong might be an option.
Just wondering if you have decided what seasoning your going to use on your shoe, seeing as a topspin has been delivered to alton towers haha. All jokes aside, great video, and cant wait to see how you get yourself out of this situation 😂
The Kempston Hardwick station will in the future form part of the new East West Rail line from Oxford, MK, Bedford and Cambridge running 4 car trains, as well as the 2 car Bedford Bletchley train running in between, so it will improve. If you were wondering
That station will close down and they'll be building a new one just down the line. If they need to do 4 lines then the whole railway from Bedford to Bletchley will have to shut down. East west railway will cause a lot of disruption for the town but I think it'll be worth it seeing its potential connecting Bedford to Cambridge, MK, and Oxford by rail.
Need to read up on East West Rail Dan, that bit of track with Kempston Hardwick is going to be part of the line from Oxford to Cambridge and almost certainly they'll build a big station for it.
What I’m hoping is that Universal will initially be a blow to Disneyland Paris so they can finally wake up and install a real new attraction (latest coaster was RC Racer in 2010 and ground up ride in the main park was Buzz Lightyear in 2006). DLP has become really stale over the last few years, causing me and a lot of others to ditch them for Parc Asterix despite DLP being easier to access and closer to my home.
@DigitalDan Does it? Why is that? The UK economy isn't doing too well and UK theme park attendances are dropping not rising. That's not a particularly good sign considering how expensive Universal parks are. Furthermore this whole project requires a massive amount of government funding towards infrastructure improvements too. I'd say it's still 50/50 at the moment.
Hope you guys like my poem. I am Universal Studios Great Britain. You are Universal Studios Great Britain. They are Universal Studios Great Britain We are Univetsal Studios Great Britain. Thank You I have other similar poems about PBR,AT and TP.
I think the answer for Universal to not putting harry potter in the UK park, is to instead make the UK park have the only LOTR land in the world. People from the UK still have value in the Orlando parks, but it creates demand for people from the US to spend the money to visit the UK
on the topic of kempston hardwick, a new railway called east west rail is currently under construction. It will probably serve kempston hardwick, and the station should be getting a massive overhaul.
Just a thought on the potential hit this could have on other theme parks in the UK. We went to Alten Towers about a year ago, of the 6 rides we were able to get on, 3 of them broke down during queuing, wasting the precious SIX HOURS the park was open during BRITISH SUMMER TIME. parks being open for six hours is absolutely unacceptable when people are traveling long distances to get to the parks. If universal has 8 or 9 hour operating hours, it will force the other British parks to follow suit. Competition necessitates change, and Merlin needs to do better. Edit: Talking about pricing, I can imagine the ticket prices will match those of their European counterparts (adjusted for Currency) so around £60 for adults, less for children. a fee worth paying for a better experience all round.
Lord of the rings and Doctor who lands and rides would be good... James bond maybe. Agreed Hagrids is one of my favorite coasters in the world. The only one i enjoyed just a little bit more was Cosmic rewind.. that ride is awesome
Welcome to The Field! 🌍
Howdy :)
Welcome to the new universal area, The FIELD
it still has better ride operation than Alton Towers
wassuuuppppppp
That field currently has more working rides than Alton Towers and the theming in the field is better than Hyperia and the mud taste better than any off the food served up at any Merlin park.
Pretty sure 5 beats 0
Very true merlin food is appalling
😂😂
rip digi daniel's phone 1:14 I will never mentally recover from this horrific accident.
lol

I honestly thought for a second that you and Marcus were about to have a picnic.
The picnic basket is symbolic. As the theme park starts to be constructed,.so will the picnic. Then Dan will eat his shoe 🎉🎉
I would love a video like that
@@MrGamerDoesVids Same, I can just imagine Dan and Marcus in a random field, just eating sandwiches and crisps and cakes and drinking J20.

I actually love this type of video from Dan
I live near Bedford in a place called harpenden and I have been on a walk that crosses through that field
Bring me sunshine in your smile 😃
This world is corrupted man we’ve gone from amazing parks to some acres of flipping dirt
😂😂
I’m expecting you to STAY THERE for the entire process 😂
Then he can't build his park in planco 2
Yep! We’re still here!
I have genuinely never been so excited for a video upload ✨🔥
Digital dan looks to professional with those microphones
Really enjoy your videos. Do you have your own merchandise on sale?
I hope we get a churro stand like islands of adventure did!
Marcus ranking Hagrid’s over velocicoaster - I actually have to agree 😅
Great Video Dan And Marcus 😊.
Thank you!!

Universal Orlando, Hollywood, Japan 😀
Universal Bedford.. 😶
also goodbye dans phone 1:13
The chairs are just so iconic 😂😂 it’s nearly 3 mins in and Marcus falling off the chair at 2:47 has me in stitches 😭😭😂😂
Best series I’ve found on UA-cam
Bro traveled all the way to Bedford just to sit in a muddy field for 15 minutes 😂
Ain't no way they ain't doing Harry Potter, they'll bleed that franchise for every dime they can get, trust me, it'll be there! It won't be Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic but they'll find a way.

No worries! Excited to be doing more series 🔥
Love this, I live just over the road. Hoping to see some movement in the new year on this project.
Agreed!! Can’t wait to see it develop 👌

The Uk its self has so many IP's that could be used. Doctor who, Paddington bear, Wallace and Gromit, Sherlock Holmes, James Bond.
I should have waited to the end of the video before i commented!
Can't wait for you to eat a shoe in the next vid.
Oh yeah why did he promise that again?
@@plighting_engineerd back when there were absolutely no signs of a top spin coming back to towers, he said he'd eat a shoe if ripsaw returned
Not confirmed a top spin by the park yet but yeahhh…. Maybe it’s finally time 😢
@@DigitalDanit was on the car park 😈
@@DigitalDan Yeh topspin parts have arrived on carpark now.
@thrill_riders @DigitalDan where's our human pyramid from summer? 🤔
Great vid btw keep it up lads ❤
Marcus falling off the camping chair🔥🔥🤣
now we need a camping at the Universal Bedford site until construction starts vlog 🍷
I think the uk family parks will be most effected by this because when people go to the uk they will probably only go to universal Thorpe and towers
great field update lads, very grassy
I thought I saw Marcus when I was queuing for hagrids. It's a great coaster but not as good as velocicoaster!
liked and subscribed, cant wait for that sweet t-shirt Dan !
Great video Dan. 😊
I expect a day by day series, throughly explaining everything being done in the construction process. The first episode should commence by next week
Just wondering if you have decided what seasoning your going to use on your shoe, seeing as a topspin has been delivered to alton towers haha. All jokes aside, great video, and cant wait to see how you get yourself out of this situation 😂

It looks in way better shape than the site where "London Resort" was meant to be.
Agreed!
Its 10 minutes from my parents house so I can't wait! I went to Florida earlier this year and going again next year to Epic Universe.
Dan and Marcus yapping on a field for 15 minutes was not on my 2024 bingo card
You say used to own, were there perhaps compulsory purchase orders involved in aquiring fields and houses?
Need to read up on East West Rail Dan, that bit of track with Kempston Hardwick is going to be part of the line from Oxford to Cambridge and almost certainly they'll build a big station for it.
My bad 😅
well done dan and Marcus
Lol nice vid dan!! Have u heard the news about toxicator ehem i mean project ocean its arrived in the car park
I have! Video out tomorrow 👌
@@DigitalDan excited for the shoe???
Proper Marcus style video
The field 🔥🔥🔥
Welcome to a field I love it Dan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like Universal will be more expensive than other UK parks but not by much, I’d guess about £60 compared to the £40 or so of the other parks
Given that the current todays price of Thorpe and Alton is £68 … i think we will see brand new tickets for this park around £100 a day
@@samwalker8893no one pays £68 to get into Alton or Thorpe , always offers on somewhere
Keep up the good and funny work
Please use a drone for the construction updates. Goated vid btw
Love how dans phone just falls after hanging on for dear life at 1:16
Your use of smg osts gives me a smile every time!
Love the intro to the video
What I’m hoping is that Universal will initially be a blow to Disneyland Paris so they can finally wake up and install a real new attraction (latest coaster was RC Racer in 2010 and ground up ride in the main park was Buzz Lightyear in 2006).

Thought you was in fearless valley for a sec
This man deserves atleast a million subs
Always love the comedy timing...
The clash of clans background music is pure class
I’m so glad there is a big park coming to England that I live relatively close to since Alton towers is about 3 hours away
Would love a version of the Hollywood new fast and furious coaster.
Please go back to that exact the spot if the park is one day made. 🙏

Where’s my free t- shirt Dan? 😈
Absolutely love this
them casually chatting away about universal
me glaring at the phone that is neglected on the ground
the panic was gone when he picked it up
😂😂
I think you need to create a podcast called the field that is covering the construction work
This will be a series throughout its construction!
I hope there is good rollercoasters!
Welcome to the feild🌍
They haven't announced it's definitely happening yet so I'd hold those 'its coming' and 'where it's going to be' lines.
It seems very very likely! We shall see though!

loving the muddy look the park is going for
Dan's phone slowly falling out lol 🤣
Universal announced that this park will be open all year round, so January won't be depressing in the UK anymore!
Now this is a series that I'll follow! Also I think an announcement at IAAPA Expo Europe 2025 might be a good one!
True!

New series? This Week At The Site? Would make a great acronym, Dan. 🤣
This is probally the most out of context thing ont he digital dna UA-cam channel ❤
Im from Peterborough would great it they made a new station as i could just get a train there in like 30m
You two should start a podcast
I think the answer for Universal to not putting harry potter in the UK park, is to instead make the UK park have the only LOTR land in the world. People from the UK still have value in the Orlando parks, but it creates demand for people from the US to spend the money to visit the UK
hopefully the jaws ride would be built here
I though you was pulling a shoe out of the picnic basket to eat Danny Boy 😅
Soon 😂

Disneyland Paris will really have to up it's game if this does go ahead
No way bros made a podcast ep now
Kempston Hardwick will be on that new East West rail link from Oxford to Cambridge.
well, we can expect a part 2 in 2030 on the carpark
We defo need an RMC !!!!!
