“No Chocolate, One Woman And Some Stairs for £35” - Customers SLAM “Shambles” Wonka Event
Вставка

- Instead of floating down a river of chocolate, parents found themselves in a warehouse that did not match the picture that advertised the event - at a cost of £35 a ticket.
Michael Archibald, the actor that portrayed Willy Wonka at the event, expected theatre play. “It was supposed to be this land of imagination and to my surprise it was not. There was no notice on how many Wonkas there would be. It was supposed to be a land of wonders.”
Michael claim to have not been paid - nor it is claimed have the prop managers who worked 12 hour shifts for three days straight.
“They’ve cut contact with all the actors, we have no emails or phone numbers.”
Alana Lockens, a disappointed parent, says it “wasn’t the immersive experience described on the website - and there was no chocolate.”
“I’m devastated on his behalf. My son has autism, so we tried to keep the smiles and make it as happy as we could. It could have resulted in a complete meltdown.”
Billy Coull, the Director of the House of Illuminati and the brains behind this affair says: “I’m sorry to everyone for this disappointment, we tried to give you the best time we could but I am deeply disappointed”.
“No chocolate, one woman and some stairs - that’s evidently worth £35 quid,” says Jeremy Kyle.

If Willy Wonka did the Fyre Festival
You promised us Krabby the Clown instead we saw Cheapy McCheapskate
You can spend less and still get more than a jellybean and a quarter cup of lemonade in an average buffet.
I would urge tourists to avoid the other Glasgow tourist attraction Disnae Land.
Why does everything suck now? Like, literally everything is trash. “Fun things that work as advertised and are reasonably priced” was a show that was cancelled around 2008 and is not planned to return, ever.
In my small town I'm chalking much of it up to all the foreigners the government has brought in. No joke though. Different approach to work, different customer service that's for sure, and different ways of doing things, people just caring less because of that too and yeah that causes a break down to the cohesion of the community. It's sad.
Because everyone got greedy, and most are trying to rip everyone off ..
Ooh there’s definitely still real beautiful places out there, they just won’t get as much attention as stuff like this :>
They told the workers to give the kids 1 single jellybean each and 1/4 cup of lemonade😂
I'm starting to think it was code for drugs and alcohol. That would have helped alot of they handed out pills and alcohol
maybe they didn't want the kids to get a sugar rush and start twa
I don't understand how it took 3 days to set up, I could have done the same amount of work in a couple of hours!
Couldn’t even lay down some fake grass ffs 😂
Got the brown river down alright though 💩
So ironic that Glasgow made a real life SpongeBob Krabby Land (Willy Wonka Version) 😂😂
the New Forest now suffers from the exact same concept abeit a slight middle class twist since being branded or handed National Park status - hyped to the gills on trendy websites whilst every lay by , pull- in , roadside verge & woods entrance or car park has been crocodile toothed , reduced , fenced off or completely closed - obviously to ‘protect’ the place in spite of encouragement of overwhelming tourism traffic so as soon as the sun shines attracting thousands of shiny townie families whom immediately overfill the limited remaining parking zones & quickly descending into scenarios resembling superstore parks on Christmas week…
at least they can escape to the overcrowded & overpriced cream tea shoppes of grimy traffic fumed Lyndhurst & repeat the exact same process in its one central overpriced car park & perhaps get a photo of a real new forest pony ( they’re just like other ponies but with black tails )so long as adhering to the countless signage forbidding interactions with the increasingly miserable hassled animals .
£35 might just cover fish & chips for 3 in Brockenhurst but you need an hour for the queue 😂👍
…& parking in Brockenhurst isn’t at all cheap & after 18:00 forget it & don’t think of sneaky overnight camping beneath the stars back out in the forest - there’ll be hammering on your panels from park rangers or cops or both after sunset so just get out & come back with more money between 9 & 5 Thankyou.
"The Director" sounded like hed just spent 3 days stood up in someone's kitchen 🤣
That’s where all the cash has been spent
Did a Nigerian prince organise it?
"house of illuminati" has red flags all over it!
If they don’t get a refund then they’ll be a lawsuit 👍
I feel so sorry for the people who paid £35 per person for a ticket to this so called event, and to see it being incredible on the website and to get there and be let down by seeing nothing like the website is heartbreaking
And I also feel sorry for the people who didn’t get paid for their work and shift at that place, the organizer guy should be ashamed of himself
Reminiscent of the fair in Father Ted where one ride was a few fet up in a forklift 🤣
Are there tickets still available? Asking for a friend
Camp krusty on the simpsons. Glad this reached the news ..not first time this has happened.
3 twelve hour shifts for 3 days straight setting it up? looks like something someone put together in an hour.
never ever trust the website ever again
This was just your typical trip to Blackpool in the 80s ………
Red flag if they only describe it as “land of imagination “ with no other details . I feel bad for the kids and people not getting paid but the adults should have known with the ai art
The director looked like he had been dragged backwards through a bush!
It was a world of pure imagination
kids had there own fyre fest this year a bad scam and a half they used ai to do the marketing
Its a land of no-imagination.
Lol, a mug finds loads of mugs!
more like willie wonka's chocolate factory on a £5 budget
Is there an update on this what's happening.
That event was not worth 35p
On the left is some AI-generated nonsense.
Just an absolute scam🤯😂🤯😂
It was nice of "the Director of the House of Illuminati" to comb his hair before putting out that video to parents and the community.
Stinks of a con this. Staff/refunds not been paid but it's "on the way". They won't get anything. The owners will have known from day 1 this was the plan. It's like a good old Bait And Switch followed by a dip from the owners.
They were promised a pasadise of sweet teats
Sounds like a scam to me
What did Michael want to say at the end?
It is worth £35 just to see an Oompa Loompa visibly depressed though.
A disaster is also running a cheap daytime show that exploits people and eventually leads to suicide of the participants, before being abruptly cancelled 😂😂
Funny how some people’s ego can recover easily before lording it up over others when they are equally exploitative (some might argue in an even more insidious way).
What sick monster could do this to family’s
I mean, you have to be something of a dinlow to fall for those ai pics, c'mon now
I thought it was meant to be concept art that represented something like that, not that that was the attraction itself 😭
@@heuristiclynx Lol, you can see that they printed those same images on a canvas and then slapped them on the walls, thinking that would count as not being false advertising.
Its well known thst hes a con artist. Do research into him 😅
For 35 quid there better be at least one woman for everyone
It looks like a closed down theatre prop room! I think a Asda stock room would be more magical.
This event was FYRE !
"This Golden Ticket is Fake!"
The kid playing Charlie seems pretty deluded to be fair. You're playing a role at a random event, you're not Lawrence Olivier, son. 😂
Something tells me he has pronouns on his CV.
@@puddleglum3306We aren't living in the 1950s anymore mate, wake up
@@mandyward5372 No we are not ,we are living in a never ending episode of The Twilight Zone .
@@cliveo3 What all because those people are happy? I think it's ironic that your obviously not happy with your sad life so you choose to hate on them who are happy and THERE aperently the wrong ones 😂
@@mandyward5372 Your grammar is appalling and may i suggest you pay more attention in English lessons, when you go back to junior school on Monday morning .
British people are so funny, love from USA
Ha Ha Ha,😄 get use to it kids , your dreams are just dreams .... a lesson well taught
Yeah. The parent should say to this kds "get used to it. This is what it feels like to work and see how much is taken off you in tax and what you get for it !"
based lol
I think the idea of “Dreams are absolutely hopeless and have no real merit or value” is kinda just entirely wrong o: Like dreams absolutely can be realised even if it is a pretty rare occurrence. Like I think it’s a lot more helpful of a lesson to teach kids that dreaming is a good thing but only in moderation, than to teach them to absolutely never have ambitions.
Land of Wonders? more like land of blunders!
Poom Pa Poom Pa Poopity Do 💩
As an ompalumpa would say it fell short of its promises, it was A little bit of a let down , little things don't mean a lot , 😂
I bet everyone thought the following:
From the exterior, it’s just an old warehouse - but the moment they stepped through that rainbow archway, it would have taken everyone to the world of pure imagination that was Willy Wonka’s amazing chocolates factory - a magic portal to that world, like the wardrobe in Professor Kirke’s house that took Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie to Narnia - or the door they went through at the end of Prince Caspian - that sort of thing - or at least took people down in a glass lift to the place - one jelly bean and a quarter of a cup of lemonade is not worth £35 - it’s a chocolate factory - not a jelly bean and lemonade factory! And who was that scary-looking man in black? He doesn’t feature in either the book or any of the films!
I've watched several interviews with the actor who played Wonka and this is not him. The actor has a beard and is not Asian looking
He says in the video that there were 3 of them and that's because each of them were supposed to lead a different group of kids through the event.
@@MistyKathrine I saw that lateron there were 3 tho I don't know if they used all 3
Was it an SNP production?
Are the SNP involved
LMAO!
I can think of one oompa-loompa the SNP could offer up.
Sturgeon got a job in it as an oompa loompa, they motorhomes aren’t going to pay for themselves you know.
i've got a question for you, which is heavier, a kilogramme of steeuulll or a kilogramme of feathers?
I always thought things like this were marketing experiments to see if people were dumb enough to pay alot of money and get nothing for it. Congrats Scotland you guys wont stand for it.
Good Morning Britain interviewed another actor who said he played Willy Wonka, was there two?
If that would of been me I would have sued them for not giving them the experience for willy wonka I would have left and took pics 😮😮😮😮
ted nivision played willy wonka
The host is more annoying than Piers Morgan
*IMAGNATION*
Looks like Dismaland from 2015.
I was at Dismaland. It was actually brilliant.
@@puddleglum3306this is how they should have marketed it instead of Willy wonka
@@Phoenix-ov5gg CORRECT!
Nothing like mr beast’s Willy wonka factory
Is Michael American? ❤❤
Did any of them have a golden ticket?
Another Wonka on Talk TV.
I can’t stop laughing 😂😂😂😂😂😂He is not letting his guests speak!! I’m so annoyed! We want to hear the story! I honestly think he’s on something
Well oh my !! This is so stupid!
The house of Connaughti more like it!!!
What’s the “actor” on about ? He never got a break 😂😂 he’s not grafting down the coal mines
Its jezza!
Oh look woke massive of imagination
ah the capitalist dream, get in, get the cash and get out.
No, capitalists like happy customers. They make the best long term financial sense.
Sorry, but as soon as I see nose ring piercings I cannot take a person seriously.
It’s depressing the attention this is receiving . Many Children all over this nation & the world are enduring terrible situations day after day & we’re all constantly hoodwinked by unrealistic representations of daily life & lifestyles through on screen advertising whilst being overcharged by energy & telecommunications companies every hour of every day.
These folks deserved something a bit more interesting or imaginative & perhaps due some refund if they’ve thought to keep a receipt but what would you really expect from today’s entertainment industry for £35 ? An unforgettable & Incredible Holographic Experience featuring professional entertainers ? 🐀
It's false advertising. Stop defending greedy business practices during a cost of living crisis
Wow,how boring are you!? 🥱
You’re looking too far into it mate it was just a funny shitshow
You sound like the life and soul of a party you
I can smell pronouns
