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.

加上粉丝滤镜勉强及格，去除粉丝滤镜的话，只能打5分了。
明知会终结，却不断重复分别与邂逅的存在。
还是感动了一把。。。但是，蘑菇武内你们能不能请个靠谱的编剧本股东谢谢你们了！
不太“寻常”的美国青年电影 节奏太慢 心灵鸡汤太多 整个电影就两件事 一 打破女主常规生活方式 挑战自我 二 打开男主心扉 释怀痛苦往事
四分！
Life is long，it would be boring stay the same version of yourself the whole life.中文名翻译的好美~
讲真都不如范式的手书，打架没力气，英灵都不说话省钱吗？
片名喜欢 配乐也蛮好听的 剧情嘛就挺一般的
绷不住了，到底懂不懂观众想看什么啊（）退一万步说，就算你不做成情怀向宝具集锦嘉年华，你这戏它拍得好吗？？医生的台词，盖提亚的台词，第四之兽，还有没配音的群演……有没有短板另说，你扪心自问有高光吗？？？三波英灵战糟蹋成什么样了啊救命
逼逼叨叨的太多了，闪闪就是为了出来做了总结陈词吗？剧情看完，最震撼我的居然是芙芙酱到底是什么神奇的存在……
简单的电影，不过是一个暑假的生活。演父母辈的演员都很有名气，女主看着像有印第安血统，和演父母的演员一点都不像一家人，要是换成安迪的亲生女儿可能要合适得多。国内什么时候能拍些这么简单的电影多好，就算是网大也不错啊
我tm太失望了，rnm，退钱（虽然我也没交钱吧）！
2.5 羡慕这样的派对与舞会 看看海滩听听歌还是不错的
还是很喜欢长卷发的欧美男生，夏日还有单车，礼服加上自由自在的生活。剧情发展都是我想象中的那样，所以剧情我还是喜欢的。喜欢女主学单车那里，被我猜中的剧情走向
看过fate里剧情最牵强的一部，说实话，本来我也不怎么待见这条线的男主，屁本事没只会嗷嗷的给人灌鸡汤，不像士郎虽然也有挂不说但是人家有担当啊，最后还强行给个挂而且还是伤敌一千自损八百的招数，真是一个摆烂的御主啊，冲特效给的三颗星
后面表现力不行啊，站桩嘴炮时连bgm都不给力；比起台词输出不如把氛围烘托好。（医生啊你就这么殉了（英灵你们说句话啊（人王那段真的绷不住了
好开心，青春年少，生活还有激情，保持对世界好奇
医生加一星 村姑加一星 尼禄加一星 学妹加一星 大部分英灵出场加一星 伯爵没宝具也没声音扣一星 没有我雪b扣一星
1.5星，从这部剧场版能满满看出cw对fgo的敷衍，能把一个终章这个标题，做得这么流水账这么无聊，完全燃不起来了啊，其实作画也没那么差可演出却非常平淡，剧情就看个乐子，boss经典b格足但实力拉跨的代表，话说这部这片之前没资源的时候评价还行的，这1.5星其实是tv第七章的3星折一半，这部虽然是剧场版可制作真不如tv用心啊。
其实我觉得可以有7分…平淡但是清新且温馨，片入其名
