The Dinotopia area concept art that I shared back in November has been posted on another website and it's cropped differently displaying more of the full image:



I combined this version with November's version to get the almost full version of the concept art:

According to an article from The Daily Mail, both BBC and ITV are no longer involved in The London Resort because of environmental concerns surrounding the project:

Yesterday BBC Studios, the commercial ventures arm of the corporation, confirmed it was no longer involved with the project.

A spokesman said: 'BBC Studios has no commercial agreement in place with London Resort and no current plans to enter into any agreement.

'We would only consider doing so should there be clear and decisive evidence that the project would have a net positive environmental impact.'

An ITV spokesman added: 'ITV's arrangement with the London Resort was that we were a potential licensor of one of our children's brands, which was Thunderbirds.

'We can confirm that ITV no longer has a commercial arrangement with London Resort as the agreement has now ended. This means that Thunderbirds will not be a part of the park.'

The London Resort’s statement to The Daily Mail regarding this news is the following:

'Nobody ever said major infrastructure projects were easy or quick. We look forward to delivering the first top tier theme park for the UK.'

It looks as if this might actually be on the road to resolution one way or the other. From what I read, there is now a deadline (15th March) to submit the bid or a very good reason for deferring until June/July. Meetings at the end of March will decide if their are good reasons to defer until June/July, otherwise future meetings considering the bid will be planned on the basis of whatever has been submitted by that date.

I’m pretty sure that Paramount’s involvement at this point would just be licensing their IP for a few rides and that’s about it.

Hopefully 2022 will be a progressive year for this project!

I'm still doubtful of this project but also very hopeful. Hopefully this new timescale works out. This year should be full of a lot of news.

They really seem to be dragon their feet getting this park underway.

London Resort Company Holdings' in-house design division, London Resort Design Group, has launched a dedicated website: http://www.londonresort.design

The new website says "The London Resort is currently finalizing its DCO application in preparation for groundbreaking 2022 and an opening date of 2025." For a long time The London Resort has remained firm on a 2024 opening but this is the first I'm seeing them confirm that it has been pushed to 2025. Even the main official website (https://londonresort.info/the-project/) still says "Provided our DCO application is granted, works will start in 2022, with a view to the London Resort opening in 2024" so hopefully that'll be updated soon.

New press release saying that work will start in 2022, they don't have the planning premission yet do they? Did I miss something?

It has been confirmed that work on The London Resort, a huge new theme park in the UK, is to begin in 2022.

The £2.5bn project has been likened to Disneyland. It is set to be the largest theme park in Europe since the opening of Disneyland Paris in 1992.
