223: Pride and Pigeons

Dearest Listeners, Gather 'round, for your host Beth has returned from her adventures in the genteel society of Bath, her mind full of Regency decorum and an undiminished passion for all things Disneyland Paris. In this week's episode, the mailbag is overflowing with your splendid correspondence, and the news from the resort is enough to make any heart flutter. In This Episode: Beth and her co-host attend to the most urgent bulletins from the resort, including a musical revival that will have you marking your calendar for 2026, a truly masterful honour bestowed upon a legendary Imagineer, and the first-ever autumnal adornments for a certain royal residence. (Spoiler: It involves pumpkins fit for a palace). We then delve into your letters, which provide no end of amusement and thoughtful discussion. We engage in a most serious debate on the merits of staying 'in the bubble' versus the strategic use of off-site lodgings, sparked by a wonderfully detailed inquiry from a listener journeying all the way from Australia. We also share a delightful trip report from across the pond, filled with first impressions from seasoned Disney park veterans, including their thoughts on everything from the thrills of Big Thunder Mountain to the perplexing nature of the park's beignets, not forgetting the alarmingly proportioned birdlife ! Alas, our time is once again cut short by the clock, leaving letters from Nicole, James, Cassy, and Georgina for our next gathering. Fear not—we shall address them with all due haste, perhaps even in a bonus episode! Connect With Our Society: We dearly love to receive your correspondence. Send your own questions, trip reports, and Regency-era Disneybound concepts to our electronic posting address: dlp@dedicatedtodlp.com. You can follow our social promenades on Instagram, Bluesky, and Facebook. If you enjoyed this assembly, we would be most obliged if you would subscribe to the show and leave a favourable review on your preferred podcatcher. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single review must be in want of many more! Until next time, we remain your devoted servants in all things DLP. Yours, Lady Beth & her Mystery Co-host
