A few tiny adjustment(s)

Drayton Manor is a great theme park with lovely staff, fun rides, and an atmosphere perfect for all ages. But I do have one small criticism about Thomas Land. There are two of the same characters represented twice — Toby has his own ride and is also at the sheds, and the same goes for Rosie with the engine tours. Personally, I’d suggest replacing one of each with other characters — for example, maybe Duck and 'Arry near Harold's ride. Since Bert is part of Diesel's ride, it would make sense to include 'Arry too. Or even Stanley! There are loads of great characters they could add (I could go on, but I won’t bore you!).

That aside, it’s a brilliant park and definitely a must-visit — especially for Thomas fans.

DO NOT ATTEND!

I hated going to Milestone; the people treated me like shit, they didn't care about me, I just felt so hurt on the inside that it took me 16 years to pluck up the courage to write this. As a former student I ask any parents to avoid this school at ALL COSTS. I hope the teachers from my time left or died. Please, for the love of God, DO NOT let your children attend these schools. Unless you want death threats or insults hurled at you or your children.

And another thing. I have autism and you treated me like a nobody. Those teachers need to take a hint. The emotional damage this school caused has stayed with me for years. No child deserves to go through what I did.

Please don't read other peoples reviews; they're lying.

HIGHLY say so

Been coming to this park for the last 15 years and no matter how many times I go, I just can't get enough of it. Though, I kinda wish Merlin would refurbish a few rides here and there. (maybe bring back the Sonic Spinball branding for Spinball Whizzer?) But yeah, for those who have never been, what are you doing with your life? This park, for me at least, gets a MILLION out of ten.

Could you read this? It’s very serious and important

I want to tell you about my experience at this school. I was bullied and threatened by the teachers — all of them — during my time there. I was insulted and even called the ‘r-word,’ which caused me a lot of pain and stress. I’m sharing this not to attack anyone personally, but so that you understand how harmful these actions were. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and dignity, especially students who are just trying to learn and grow.

I hope this feedback encourages reflection on your actions and the effect they had. I’ve moved on and grown since then — I’m now at Centa Co, and if you want to speak to me, you’ll know where to find me.

Add more shows

Firstly, thank you for all the wonderful work you do for young audiences — CBeebies has always been a special part of growing up for many of us. That said, I’d love to offer a few suggestions that could help refresh the lineup while also celebrating some beloved classics.

I think it would be great to bring back or reintroduce a few shows that younger viewers today may have missed, such as:

Thomas & Friends (Series 1–12 — the classic ones!)
Mr Men (narrated by Arthur Lowe)
Busy Buses (with Brian Conley)
Timbuctoo (voiced by Ronnie Corbett)
Mickey Mouse Funhouse (since Spidey's Amazing Friends is already part of the lineup)

In addition, it would be amazing to revive Bagpuss and Ivor the Engine — especially since Clangers got a modern reboot that worked so well. Those shows have timeless charm and gentle storytelling that still resonate today.

As for the current lineup, this is just a personal view — but I feel it might be time to retire Newsround. (I mean 50-something years? Don't wanna end up like The Simpsons, do you?) It had a great run and served its purpose, but with how much content has changed, it might not feel as relevant or necessary in its current form on children's TV. Perhaps that slot could go to something more age-appropriate or creative for younger viewers again.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I share this not out of criticism, but from a place of care and excitement — I truly want to see CBeebies thrive with both nostalgic charm and modern energy.
