John's untold Butlins story


John's Untold Butlin's Story

Welcome to the untold story of John's story, a former Redcoat named Dippy. Working for Butlin's from 1987,  John would start his career as a lifeguard. Keeping everyone safe in the Butlin's pools, John would work his way into the entertainment department and become a Redcoat. Helping to create special memories for all the customers coming for their break, John would continue to entertain the customers as Redcoat until the end of 1991. 

In 1992, John would start his next step in Butlins as becomes a sound engineer. It was not long after that John became the stage manager. He would continue to work in Butlins as a stage manager until the end of the Butlins Holiday World era in 1998. It's also amazing to read that he was the last stage manager in the Gaiety Theatre, which today is known as Hotshots.

Who and What is Butlin's Memorabilia Website

Mark Banks owns and created this website to show his collection of Butlin's memorabilia items. It was created during my spare time at work and is a hobby of mine and has since grown into a site that offers a chance for others to smile. This website is NOT the official website for Butlin's and is NOT the official archive of Butlin's at any stage. The website has expanded to show stories, with permission from that person, of a moment in Butlin's from people who are either a customer or former staff. This website is in loving memory of all that had come to this amazing company and to Sir William Butlin, the founder.  This website also has information about research regarding Butlin's history with information obtained from the research I made, which is not official.
