Who remembers those ridiculous sized portions of chips at 1:17 and right at the bottom you had a load of vinegar with tiny pieces of chips, the only way you could get to them was to pour the vinegar in your mouth. Back in the day it was a great place to go when i was a teenager in the mid 90s with my mates and girlfriends. BRING IT BACK MARGATE NEEDS IT.
Thanks I love and miss Margate , I moved here in 1982. I worked for the Bembom Brothers at the Dream machines Arcade for 6 years 1989/1995 and will never forget the great memorys and all the friends made. Gods sake Thanet Council wake up and scrap the Arts then rebuild the old Pier, then remake the Classic Theme Park and change all the Arcades into Classic Arcades too, 10p/ 20p a go machines.A huge Swimming pool by the sea front. Refresh winter Gardens and create Cheap day breaks. Forever Joe.
Wow. So nice to look back at the park in its former glory. The Bembom Brother era was an amazing part of my life. So many magical memories from that park. What a shame some asshole was allowed to take over the park and run it into the ground !!!
@fraserkatie I was wondering that myself, Number 73 was live, wasn't it? I'm assuming the footage at Margate was pre-recorded then, as it's impossible to edit footage live
so much of my childhood just wiped out and erased....margate is a shithole now

Alec's accent makes his words quite difficult to decypher.
