Join us this time on Expedition Extinct as we look at the closed history of the Pleasure Island Family Theme Park In Cleethorpes, England.
Opening in 1993, the park closed in 2016 after 23 years of operation. Just another small theme park in the UK unable to make it in today's industry.
The park will be holding an auction on March 7th and 8th 2018 and will auction off the remaining assets from the park. If you would like to look at the auction lots or bid yourself you can find it here.

Haile Sand Fort Cleethorpes aerial view by Drone, DJI Phantom 3 Pro
This footage has been used by the BBC:
Future videos will be taken with a Phantom 4 when it arrives :)
Footage taken with a DJI Phantom 3 Pro 4K, picture quality has remained excellent despite a large degree of zooming to fill the frames in post editing.
The Humber Forts are two large fortifications in the mouth of the Humber estuary in northern England: Haile Sand Fort (53°32′4″N 0°2′1″E)[1] and Bull Sand Fort (53°33′43″N 0°4′3″E)
The two forts were planned in 1914 to protect the entrance to the estuary. They stand 59 feet (18 m) above the water and have a diameter of 82 feet (25 m). There was accommodation for 200 soldiers. Started in May 1915, they took more than four years to build and construction was not finished until December 1919.
During the Second World War they were reactivated and modernised. The forts were regularly attacked by enemy aircraft. During this time, they installed a netting to prevent enemy submarines from travelling up the estuary to Hull or Grimsby. The forts were finally abandoned by the military in 1956.
Haile Sand Fort is the smaller of the two and is situated around the low-water mark between Cleethorpes and Humberston on the Lincolnshire coast.
Bull Sand Fort is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from shore off Spurn Head. It is a 4-storey concrete building with 12-inch (300 mm) of armour on the seaward side, and originally armed with four 6-inch guns. It was built with great difficulty as its sandbank is 11 feet (3.4 m) below low water.
In 1987 it was given a Grade II Listed Building status. In 1997 it was sold to the Streetwise Charitable Trust, who are restoring the fort for use as a drug rehabilitation facility. Administratively, it is within the East Riding of Yorkshire and civil parish of Easington, East Riding of Yorkshire.

Fossils - Viagra, Snuff, and Rock 'n ' roll
From Cleethorpes to Cambodia with a few stops in between.
What started out as a bit of fun for four elderly musicians has escalated in a worldwide media hunt to track down an elusive boy band.
To avoid the press and adoring fans discovering the truth, the geriatric rockers flee to Southeast Asia until things are resolved.
Enjoy their shenanigans around the mystical orient as they discover a carefree way of life that they enjoy to its fullest.
Will they all make it home?
Viagra Snuff and Rock ‘n’ Roll.
What started out as fun for the four elderly musicians of a band called Fossils has, thanks to local DJ, spiralled out of control. Record companies, fans, and the nation’s media scour the country in search of the elusive, young, vibrant, four-piece band, unaware they have a combined age of 280 years.
The old rockers, fearing for their families’ safety if the truth comes out, need to find a way to avoid attention in Britain until things can be resolved.

Local business floats pulled by heavily decorated horses drive down Park Street as part of the festivities watched by a pavement full of people - a cart of young tap dancers, a float covered in balloons 'Taylor & Coulbeck Builders & Contractors', the 'Hospital Ex-patients League' float with dainty ladies in bonnets and parasols sitting under a pergola adorned with flowers, 'W.Smith and Co.'
