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.

高佐搞得像代餐上位，但回忆太动人，故人的滤镜只会越来越厚，甚至悟到为什么立本人喜欢死人纯爱……安室透既可以女王又可以战损还填补了柯南不能肉搏的空白，官方推他确实让人信服
哈哈哈哈看着恶搞英雄的法国片，简直是笑死了，节奏也好，笑点也秘籍，法国人真是幽默。
给涩谷的一封情书。虽然拿佐藤结婚当噱头吃相略难看，但绝对算不破不立的一部。制作好了不止一点半点，各种漫画风小彩蛋超可爱，菅野祐悟的OST简直起飞。犯人好猜，但柯南是动作片啊，选择原谅。
拜托，这样的喜剧电影简直不要太优秀，各种梗各种恶搞，就算你没看过那些电影你也会开心一笑，恶搞不低俗，致敬不抄袭，实在太有趣了！
主题曲还行，这次开篇特别华丽！万圣感满满～
算是近几年剧场版里最好的一部了，虽然柯南依旧展示出“超能力”的技术，但已经做得相当平实了（没错对柯南的要求已经降低到普通的正常人就好）。虽说回忆占了叙事的大头，好在没有消费角色，感情是真的，笑点是真的，眼泪也是真的。
導演還真喜歡阿湯哥啊，城市獵人里也致敬了top gun.
法国的喜剧担当
继续走进柯学，越来越像好莱坞的三流动作片了，首先从整个露西亚反派开始
最搞笑的还是制作组给俄罗斯人加了好多戏，结果最近这时事…😂
相信我，这是疫情开始后，最搞笑的一部电影，脑洞大开，激情满满，必须满分
意外地好看诶！呜呜呜呜呜我的松田！我的警校五人组！（@ UGC LES Halles
吊打今年漫威所有电影，搞笑拉满，看似是无厘头的恶搞，又有那么一点逻辑。这才是真正能让人笑出来的搞笑电影，全程各种玩梗，圣母院被烧我实在憋不住了。没有政治正确，甚至有些不正确的段子，这才是喜欢看的电影。
开场就发糖。整体算这几年质量相对好的一部了，虽然最后的高潮仍然很离谱，但警校组的回忆，还是狠狠卖了一波情怀，有被感动
比前几年的好一点了，我想看的都有了。警校五人组是我永远的痛，看到最后一幕安室一个人在家里喝着酒看着五个人的照片的时候我差点绷不住了，好难受
以及，为什么四月上映要取名万圣节，不觉得很不应景吗
導演還真喜歡阿湯哥啊，城市獵人里也致敬了top gun.
非常简洁愉悦的喜剧，用超英套路解构超英，敢于黑别人也不吝惜自黑，骚还是法国人骚啊。
看完评论区觉得樱井武晴这几年的pua非常成功。案件动机都说得过去，但是松田把口香糖掏出来摁进炸弹的瞬间我觉得我还是觉得编剧在侮辱俄罗斯美女杀手。顺便两只手的安室透打不过一只手的炸弹狂魔，日本公安还是不如战斗民族呀...希望明年黑衣组织能够出人手解决掉阿笠·领先人类两百年·材料学之神·牛顿再生父母·柯南背后的男人·谐音梗王·博士。
