Set to broadcast in two one-hour films, this family treat is inspired by the classic books of Barbara Euphan Todd and is pegged to be the TV event of the season. Mackenzie Crook has taken Scatterbrook farm and the infamous characters of this well-loved tale and injected them with a tender and authentic charm. This is the perfect family adventure, packed with a fun, mischievous spirit and delivered with an environmental message.
Mackenzie Crook, (Pirates Of The Caribbean, Detectorists) who has written, directed and stars as Worzel Gummidge, has gathered a host of both accomplished and brilliant actors who are set to appear in this eagerly anticipated adaptation.
Playing The Green Man, creator of the scarecrows, who arrives to Scatterbrook in episode two, is comedy legend Sir Michael Palin. He says: “It’s a lovely part for me, but the whole script is very memorable and touching, and very funny too. It quite skillfully weaves in something for everybody all the time.”
Zoë Wanamaker (My Family, Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone) will play the eccentric local aristocrat, Lady Bloomsbury Barton in episode two. She says: “The whole thing is so charming and inventive. It’s the sort of thing I’d watch. I’m sure it will be a huge success. I know it will - it’s divine.”
Vicki Pepperdine (Getting On, The Windsors) takes on the role of the formidable Aunt Sally in episode one. She says: “There’s something for everybody. It’s got this heart to it, and you’d be hard pushed as an adult not to engage with it.”
Steve Pemberton (League Of Gentleman, Benidorm) will play Mr Braithwaite, the farmer. He says: “This is the kind of show the whole family can enjoy together. It has a lot of humour, a lot of visual humour too, and I think kids will enjoy watching the children being central to the story.”
Rosie Cavaliero (Gentleman Jack, Cleaning Up) will play Mrs Braithwaite, she added: “It’s a story about the imagination, and children escaping into this different world. Mackenzie’s version is totally contemporary.”
Ones to watch India Brown (Hetty Feather) and Thierry Wickens (making his TV debut) will play Susan and John, two city children spending their summer at Scatterbrook farm who quickly befriend Worzel and begin a summer of adventures.
The first episode, The Scarecrow Of Scatterbrook, sees two young strangers arrive in the village of Scatterbrook. It’s not long before Susan and John encounter Worzel Gummidge, the Scarecrow of Ten Acre Field. Their world is sent spinning into confusion when they realise Gummidge comes to life. The only person more shocked is Worzel, when he discovers that the children are not in fact fellow scarecrows but humans.
Their worlds should never commune but fate has conspired to create an extraordinary union. The seasons have stopped and the harvest hasn’t arrived. The rhythm of the natural world is out of kilter and this unlikely trio must try to put it right. Magic, mystery and mayhem unfurl.
The second episode, The Green Man, welcomes another mysterious arrival to Scatterbrook. The Green Man is the creator of scarecrows and keeper of scarecrow lore. He isn’t at all happy that Worzel is consorting with humans. Elsewhere, local aristocrat Lady Bloomsbury Barton is holding a fete, with a Scarecrow competition that Worzel is determined to win. What will The Green Man and Worzel's most competitive rival, Soggy Bogart make of it all?
Worzel Gummidge is written and directed by Mackenzie Crook and is a Leopard Pictures, Treasure Trove Productions and Lola Entertainment production for BBC One. It is Executive Produced by Kristian Smith for Leopard Pictures, Lisa Thomas for Lola Entertainment, Mackenzie Crook for Treasure Trove Productions, with rights holders Patrick D. Pidgeon and Eric S. Rollman executive producers for Pidgeon Entertainment, Inc. It is produced by Georgie Fallon and Alex Moody is the Commissioning Editor for the BBC.

剧情完整没有漏洞，演技也都挺好的。喷子以后尽量别看电影，挺好的片子被你们平分拉这么低会导致很多人直接选择不看。
一开始我以为走向是《恐怖直播》，结果，嗯…
亲子间扭曲的关系，究竟是爱自己多一些，还是爱孩子多一些？自私占领高地的时候也许更恨一些，幸福时光的时候也许也是有爱在的吧。
想起了坡道上的家，悬疑包装下的不育宣传片。
手法说不上很有新意，解谜的部分也有点乏力，但我还是挺喜欢的，正如对男医生说的那句“你不会懂”，这部电影对准了很多东亚题材不常触及甚至不敢直面的女性之痛，可惜在结局又硬生生做了妥协，或许也是一种残忍的慈悲吧…
經過七個特異點的戰鬥，人理延續保障機構‧迦勒底終於來到了聖杯探索的最終地點——冠位時間神殿所羅門。要奪回人類的未來，必先要打倒所有事情的元兇‧魔術王所羅門。在迎來最終決戰之前，各人都有自己的安排。 羅馬尼．阿基曼思考自己將要作出的選擇、瑪修則因自己尚餘不多的日子，心裡充滿千愁萬緒。而藤丸則為了最後戰役，穿上新的禮裝。 賭上過往大大小小的相遇，以及眾多的未來，藤丸與瑪修踏上征途……
剧情挺好猜，女主演技真是棒啊，韩国演艺圈的中年女演员真的不缺实力也不缺舞台。
7.6 氣氛渲染的很不錯，也喜歡主線劇情的進行，不會完全猜不到也不會全都被摸透，是可以邊看邊抽絲剝繭的電影，但節奏比較慢。
我居然一开始就猜对了整个大概的剧情，失去了点新鲜感，就中规中矩把。
中规中矩的校园爱情剧，没想到周兴哲会来演戏，唱歌的部分都有点青涩（不那么好听），中间他爱她，她爱他，他爱他真的场面一度混乱，结局还是不错的，感觉台式言情的表现手法还是很温和的。剧情上的话没有特别出采的地方，但是女主的演技真的是在线的！
永远都在错过的校园爱情故事，周兴哲好帅哦！
湾湾的青春剧是熟男回春的一剂解药：纯纯的，甜甜的…
剧情拍的有点慢了，节奏快一点观感会好很多，最后的解密有一种拧巴的矛盾感，不懂具体要表达什么意思，总的来说及格线附近的评分差不多是合理的
前面悬疑营造的不错，后半部分有点不如人意，医生是个好医生，主播不是个好主播。
不错的青春期小片，像拍了一个MV。懵懵懂懂，互相喜欢又害怕戳破，不敢表白，很湾湾的剧
真的很喜欢原故事诶当初看的时候有怦然心动的感觉 为什么改的感觉拍的很无聊 从剧情到演员都很普 很平淡的看完了全片
不错的青春期小片，像拍了一个MV。懵懵懂懂，互相喜欢又害怕戳破，不敢表白，很湾湾的剧
主题也没有挖掘得很深。某些片段的色调和打光有点奇怪。
剧情紧凑，身临其境，只是时间太短，特别是打斗场面很少，不过，依然令人兴奋，果然不愧是我，拯救了人理😬
这什么烂东西啊？节奏令我想起七章最后几集，还不如人家的萌战应援视频呢。七大魔神柱战英灵召唤就贞德出来插了个旗，我寻思至少应该一个魔神柱出场一个特异点的一批吧，就跟下冰雹似的一起出来了说“全部交给我们吧！”然后男体我就嘚嘚嘚爬几百级台阶见魔神柱去了。该燃的地方不燃，不该煽情的地方煽情，团战打得跟jojo有的一拼。一通轮流单挑之后所有英灵被强制遣返（你圣晶石怎么不还我）男体我跟魔神王打拳击，你一拳我一拳拳拳到肉。魔神王一拳打不出音爆我是不接受的啊，就你这个拳击力度我脱了礼装我都能do this all day啊。想必魔神王打了半天没打出有效伤害他也会疑惑你个逼人接我那么多拳怎么屁事没有呢tell me do you bleed？总之我的评价是：感觉不如永恒族……剧情。
