What's happened to the wheel of shite on Brighton seafront?

[Plake]

It's got half its cabins off and has been turned off for a few days. Not enough people paying £8 to go round 3 times? Is it off somewhere with less awful weather where you can see more than grey skies and rain lashing against the Perspex window?

Steve Coogan narrates it though......

Perhaps it's been deliberately vandalised by the owners of a nearby competitive attraction.

 

[Twinkle Toes]

They've taken half the cabins off in order to spark debate on interweb forums.

It appears their campaign's got off to a good start.

 

[Del Boy]

They probably FELL OFF.

Can't compete with the punters now opting for a look at the West Pier instead.

Being painted and air conditioning reconditioned.

Not a massive fan. It's a bit lame for the money.

The boss of a landmark tourist attraction ran a string of failed companies.

Jeffrey Sanders, a director of the firm planning to build the Brighton Wheel, previously ran three other failed leisure firms.

How will it end?

 

[Plake]

Hopefully he'll set up a monorail company.
