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.

韩影在尝试各种叙事，没关系我们可以在后面抄。
剧情的设定是完全站不住脚的，实际上换一个起因会好的多。越来越觉得林智妍长的漂亮了。
太喜歡舞台版了所以有很多失落。卡司很好（Richard E. Grant出場太驚喜了我愛他😭）可惜劇情磕磕絆絆推得不是很流暢，多了很多絢麗的色彩和燈光，還有沉浸式的謝菲，但反而不如舞台的平實貼心。
额。。。很一般，甚至有点差劲的科幻啊。。。设定全在一个泰国毒品上？？！然后可以灵魂穿越？？关键是还准准的12小时一次？？这都是什么跟什么嘛。。越到后面越扯啊。。。所以那个要饭的作用是？
不错，值得看，中间有一段打斗可以，剧本演员都不错，但动作戏偏少，结尾动作戏反而不如中间刘白对打惊艳
三星全都给到McCrea……太美了🥺🥺不要自作聪明改这么多细节好吗 很喜欢剧版Pritti和Jamie作为minority的连结，电影似乎弱化了……（而且在stereotyping feminist
3.5，比隔壁家DEH实在是好太多。首先是加了些与时俱进的细节，避免看出来是几年前的本子；然后得益于本来原版就比DEH有更多的编舞，所以场景化更戏剧但合理；几个演员的表演也是比较电影化的，所以整体看下来还算比较顺畅。
Well, I'm not a girl. Nobody's perfect.
6.5。女主不错，但是花瓶。创意还行，但叙事还是韩国那种爱情戏。剧情借鉴了永无止境和其他一些磕药电影，但是灵魂转换这个比那些电影还扯。
抠除几个不合理的地方，其实还行。最主要是致幻剂能进入其他人的身体有点扯
全剧透#讲的就是一个人灵魂出窍附在了很多人身上 这个【很多人】同一个目标都是去救本体的女朋友 从中牵扯出一宗毒品交易案。其实故事想象力还行 这个设定听起来有点酷又浪漫 特别是最后警察问“为什么这些人都要来救你？””女主回“他们不是这些人，他们是同一个人”会让人有点感动。然而电影节奏不好 而且我怎么感觉这里好几个人脸都好像换来换去我都有点脸盲了 还有觉得这样的枪战如果能加个高水平的长镜头会更好。
其中最让人感动的，自然就是杰米的妈妈。她从来都在背后支持着杰米，作为一个单亲母亲，全力的支持着儿子的梦想，她一个如此令人敬佩的母亲形象。妈妈永远都是杰米最忠实的粉丝。
没有想到开篇的流浪汉居然起到这样大的作用。“我是热狗，你是可乐饼”，真的笑死。
开头多角色叙述挺精彩 越到后面越能体会到苍白感 传统打斗复仇套路 6.5
韩国影视行业挺卷的 一个简单的动作片整这些花里胡哨的
跳脱一次就一个主角，为何要同一张脸？？？？大可以玩的更high，到头来是个爱情片，6分
内容就是黑白道里有人互吃，要干掉知情人，然后男主就是灵魂出窍转换到那天要杀害他们的几个人中，换来换去，就跟有任意门一样，还好我耐住性子了，不怕特么跳来跳去的，我就不想看了，然后就是换来换去搞清楚自己是谁，然后保护女友，并搞定真相和害他的人。
出乎意料的好看。如果Rent是R级片，这就是PG13的fairytale啊，生动演绎了如何正确打开lgbt+高中舞会！想看theatre版本！
这分太低了吧，动作戏不错，这么简单的片还有人说看不懂？
一直附身来附身去的，被附身的几个人的主人格不会反抗吗？这个设定感觉有点站不住
