For nostalgic value only, the Corkscrew. Hearing the whine of its lift hill motor is Alton Towers IMO.
Besides, my lasting memory of it is riding it at night in the front row, blasting through its circuit with bucket loads of air time.

Mine would have to be Corkscrew and Black Hole - I like in the dark coasters - fav being Rock n Rollacoaster - can't beat a dark coaster with Aerosmith blasting through the restraints *rock on*

I'd bring back Rita.... Personally I thought it was a great ride experience, just placed completely in the wrong section of the park ! I was happy to see it relocated at the time as it lead to the long awaited & needed development of the Dark Forrest to reach it's full potential that we all knew it had, but Rita was holding back. The park's management were able to add a couple of extremely well themed flats, increase the onslaught of the Vines over the courtyard to include Hex in the DF's line up...
As a side effect, it was great to have seen Rita relocated to another Merlin park which was previously struggling with investment and was also able to fit it's flat footprint into their park relatively easy.
Oh, hang on, was that a dream ??

Energizer!
Only rode it as Boneshaker, so missed out on it being good :P
Although I do think it looked really good in it's Ug Land guise, I miss Ug Land

Toyland tours, no doubt about it, and that's not simply because Sonic was in there!
A dark ride where it didn't matter where you looked, there was always something happening. It was colourful, it's theme tune was memorable and it was just an amazing British-born dark ride. More of that I say!

I used to love the graviton lol. I think thunder looper was great too although I was quite young when I went on it, I think if they combined thunder looper with rita (I know it would never happen) it would make for a much better ride
