God, these cries for attention from Merlin are starting to make them look like Lindsay Lohan in theme park form.

I thought Chessington was sort of exempt from the sort of stupid stuff that goes on at Alton and Thorpe, but it seems not.

In fairness, this did make me laugh a bit.

This is pretty rediculous.
If young boys and 'men' are stood 'ogling' her (a f'king statue) is it just me in thinking they need to be seen by a doctor of mental health? It's a statue, yeah it may be tolerated to notice and laugh, but ogling a statue? Oh dear god no!

Chessie has disappointed me with this, but least it was only the Metro, online as well, since it weren't in today's...

I demand that all naked statues in the world get covered up!

On one hand I can see the concern but come on, it's a bloody statue. Publicty FTW.

I hope Tussauds never try again for the naked riding record ;)

Speaking from an art point of view: they pretty much ruined how the statue looks. Old ships had such statues, some even a full body naked woman. Adding this makes it less authentic, and more silly looking. I mean, at this point they could say "Oh, she doesn't have proper eyes. Let's give her googly ones."

Also, the second picture shows that it will not look like it was meant to be there. And the guy is coping a feel.
