I wasn’t going to mention this but since the deletion idiots are rife on the Gasjet once again I will do.
Yes, muppets at Blackpool Council have released a new promotional video as a follow up to their previous bollocks.
It shows a French girl and what sounds like a Mancunian making a video which is supposed to show that people can visit Blackpool for romantic breaks. At the end the Manc proposes to the girl and presumably since it ends at that point it means we’ll have to suffer another of these shit videos at some point soon.
I think that aside from making Blackpool look like a dark, miserable, cold and empty dump, this one looks like it was made by a child and I would love to know how much Helen France, executive director for tourism and regeneration at the council, signed off for it’s creation.
I don’t know what this obsession with France is and I wonder if it’s a coincidence that the person that commissioned this video has the surname France. I know it has a tower, but Blackpool is not Paris. Blackpool is not Paris.
Blackpool is not Paris.
Can you hear me, Helen?
Someone on the Gasjet challenged me to make a better one. Maybe I will…
I agree Phil, its utter rubbish and we should be told how much this rubbish cost…………………The Blackpool ratepayer!
I like them, they have got Blackpool alot of press coverage which is aimed at targeting the stag and hen image.
On another front we have had some bad news today, the Dr Who exhibition is to close at the end of this season. Me and the Mrs love that place
There will be a better one appearing soon!! watch this space!
What a brilliant idea Phil !!
If you are looking for an actor, I would like to volunteer. I think the stereotypical Blackpool holiday maker looking for a good time would make a good video.
I would have to look gaunt,so I would have to lose 5 stone, have a Freddy Mercury haircut and beard and learn how to mince.
Please let me know when the auditions are taking place has I Desperately need the cash
Randy
Who said anything about cash?
I wanted to read the comments but as usual some anal head has been hiting the delete button, I did comment on the fact that it’s ‘fecking annoying’ when all the comments are deleted and it’s still there!!!
On another subject can anyone enlighten regarding the current headline, ‘Nolan baby’s battle for life’ from reading that it comes across as if the little mite is fighting for his life NOW when in fact the arse wipe evening rag has got bugger all to write about.
More to the point, who cares about the Nolans or anyone associated with them anyway?
Where are the groups in sportswear hanging about? This clip is lacking in authenticity.
hey yeah i noticed that, and surely to get on the big wheel they needed to go through central arcade – In which they would have been robbed of camera and money. Therefore not resulting in the apparent fun time they had on the big wheel.
Ahh you can go round it
But you still have to walk through a similar path, flanked by gypsies trying to get you to hand over cash to throw a bean bag at some tin cans in exchange for a stuffed monkey.
Well Phil it look’s like you have 6 viewer’s already and I will make 7. I’d love to see your little production. Are you going to include local club’s and project’s as the council have? Tell you what if you are in need of any technical help give me a shout.
They have? What projects?
Blackpool Circus School!
Oh right, is that what it was!
I thought you meant that silver ball that features about 4 times!
I thought it was the Casino Building with performers from a non-existent show…
Anyway… Not once did I see the Yates’ hoardings! How are we expected to attract the thousands of visitors that Maxine Callow promised us if she doesn’t promote it? Outrageous!
On the Gasjet and Nolan Baby issue above:-
Tommy Nolan said yesterday he was gobsmacked that they used that story as it happened ages ago and they didn’t cover it the time.
Methinks someone there has dropped a whatsit!!
