Here are the rules again and since these are getting some love I thought it might be fun to try a new post.
It has to fit in the preexisting space of the park's, we are discussing ,current boundaries. You have to justify why you would Bulldoze anything and the more details you can add the better. We will release one land a month but you can always go back and work one old post if you want to.
I feel this pavilion has some of the most potential. _________________ Jason

I would like to see a ride developed that could be put in behind the pavillon. I think something that uses Mary Poppins would be practically perfect. An AA ride where you ride carousel horses would be cool but not practical. So an omnimover would be good. _________________ Jason
UK has a lot of potential. First, I'd bulldoze the special events building behind the UK pavilion to leave plenty of room for expansion. A garden maze like the labyrinth at DLP would be a fine addition. According to widenyourworld.net, this was a planned addition at some point.
Even though EPCOT Center has a lot of travelouge films already, I would enjoy another Circlevision or large format film, perhaps with an emphasis on the Hebrides. Actually, a new expansion with a "provincial" emphasis on all of Scotland, Wales, and N. Ireland would be welcome. The current pavilion is entirely too English. A Scottish counter service restaurant serving haggis and other regional specialties would be awesome.
Maybe a ride in old british autos, along a track that displays scenes of all the parts of britian. Mount it on a movable arm design like HP uses and you could soar over the cliffs of dover, hang down to see the Blaney stone, sweep across Lock Ness, throw in an animitronic Nessie to snap at your heals. Make the queue mimic the Tower of London... Maybe a mirror where you appear with the crown jewels on your head.
That brings up a concept, take the cars through little scenes of famous British literature. Peter pan, Mary Poppins, Carroll , Shakespeare, Dikens, Jane Austin, Mary Shelley. Herriot, Wilde, Wolfe, Tolkein, Wells etc
