We had gremlins for part of the show in 1 of our 20 modules, located in the middle! The rest fired fine. Similar soundtrack to Belvoir with some changes, but 100% new design & different product for a different site. All the 8's went, they sounded awesome from the crowd line. We had a lot of fun.

I'm really beginning to like the zero fallout coloured gerbs we are seeing more and more of, very vivid and consistent and adds another layer to the choreography ideal for punctuation.
yes, noticed them myself... I wondered if they were the KB Magnesium flares, they last about 45-60 sec, anyone know?

Hmmm seemed a little lopsided at times, could have owed to the odd gust we had come through, my position of the fact you had a smaller footprint on the ground.

Sorry same music was more my meaning

Barcelona, great track, IMHO the belvoir display content looked better though

It was a brilliant night, thanks to Jubilee for organising it and to all the teams.

After the Jubilee display I was left thinking 'Give up now as you'll never design shows that good'.

That lasted 5 minutes before 'Work harder to get there!'. So thanks for reigniting the ambition.

I was already looking forward to the display at Alton Towers, now I absolutely can't wait!

Wow, what fantastic shows from Jubilee and Wilf Scott,i have attended all 12 years of this event,and the displays have always been excellent. Teams always seem to go the extra mile,and if you can only attend one show in the UK, this is the one to go to. Congratulations and thanks to all the teams for there hard work,and the organisation was very good with car parking,and stewards.

Probably your position - the show was dressed slightly right of centre of the site to fit in with the other teams!

I agree with the comment about Wilf coming out of retirement, his show really was a cracker!

Showing your age there.......haven't been asked that for many years!

"Does Sir dress to the left or right?"
