Background 1: It looks like what's now the Ragin' Cajun at Six Flags America, but if it's not edited, then would that be pre-2013 when it was at Six Flags Great America?

I could Google it but I don't think that's in the spirit of the quiz so I'll guess at Brighton pier (for 1).

Interesting. Never been on the one at Brighton, so if you look at a picture of the "Ragin Cajun" and the "Crazy Mouse", they look like the same layout. A case of Why mess with a good design, I guess.

I've not been on either! My girlfriend doesn't like heights and I'm not a fan of rides that spin you around so there aren't many rides we both go on at funfairs!

Has a Sussex flavour to it, perhaps?

If being located in Sussex gives churches a Sussex flavour then this one will have it.

Having trawled through the list of listed buildings in Sussex, I am fairly confident that the Church in question is St Wulfran's Church in Ovingdean
