    Went today, its ok, the figures are the worst part!! Theres only one tunnel and its nowhere near as good as the old ones!!

    But the best part by a mile has to be the blue room upstairs, i dont want to give too much away becuase its worth going for that alone but i will say two words....Billy Jean ;)

    Yep - there's one tunnel in the childrens' area. I'd recommend it - there are a few places in the top that you can poke your head through and the third one is full of mirrors which is pretty cool.
    Other than that there's a studio where you can record yourself singing some "popular music" - "pop" music they call it. You can choose from such classics as Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Nine to Five, and the like.
    Actually, it will give you a laugh.
    Not as much as a laugh as Ian Paisley though...
    Also, when you go into the Northern Ireland room, there's a small window blocked by a couch. If you lean over the couch and look through the window you'll find an upside down wax chicken.
    Almost worth going just for that!

    It looks so bad that it could be funny, I might have to wonder on out to it the next time I feel like p*ssing away a tenner!! :D

    I used to love the tunnels, I remember spending what felt like hours there when I went, also met boys, no french kissing though I was a good little girl I was!!! :D

    Went a couple of weeks ago with the OH and came out baffled. Kevin Moran had a bag of golf clubs with him!!!
    Although its bad I heard recently that it receives no funding and that the whole thing is run on a voluntary basis, which explains the names printed off microsoft word!

    yea i went, but we were wasting an hour before a film was on....the best part was pushing the buttons and touching everything with a do not touch sign. (like the machine gun)

    ohh and the room upstairs with a green screen and you can upload vids to youtube, and for some reason there was a big science room thing, which was strange.

    Ah go Degsy, just think you could have your pic taken with Mr. Ryan.
    It really was worth the tenner for the laugh.
