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.

《诗》中的父母天空写诗，让我想起来了罗贝托·波拉尼奥《美洲纳粹文学》《遥远的星辰》两部小说；情感细腻，叙事稳重，尤其是结尾的那首诗升华主题。
当初泽塔没有剧场版大伙都以为圆谷在整个大活，新生代迪迦啊，可让大伙期待了，结果人坂本确实给你整了个大活嗷。
四平八穩。武居真的會拍人物，比TV像活人。文戲也比TV好多了。最後SMILE的意義，變成光意義都給補完了。是成功救場的例子。
这是一部让人深思的电影，导演用适当篇幅交代了人物背景以及性格，进入主题事件本身并没有绝对定论，但是判决是有罪，留给大众思考的是应该怎样来表达对于女性的尊重，看下《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》这部会告诉我们答案。
女性视角还是蛮戳的，吴磊台词太差了一直没搞懂是凭什么有人气的…剔除首尾看
公正只是在法律的框架下平衡了所有人的良知与利益
剑吾的反智不能没有下线啊，咋还把隔壁拉过来挡枪
A bad sex experience or rape?
由于某些原因，圆谷没有推出泽塔剧场版，但是这部剧场版，不只是特利迦的，也是泽塔的。把特利迦与泽塔的世界观完美融合，主线是泽塔的，故事内核是特利迦的，好一个一石二鸟。打斗酣畅淋漓，让人直呼精彩，虽然有些段落依然很尴尬，但是已经足以甩T V版10000000条街了
沉默是金，沉默不代表默认。你读什么书，你做什么事，都会留下证据。一个人被曝光在众庭下的感受，可一个人不会无端被曝的。坚决抵制婚前性行为，可婚姻也不能诠释一切。灰色地带，如今脑内一片苍茫……
还挺好的 导演都很有自己特色 吴京的故事讲述的是哪怕没有先进的武器装备 先辈们也在用自己的血肉之躯守护我们的国家 ，而这正是奠定了我们可以独立自主发展的基础。也因如此 在新中国成立后 我们自知不够强大 所以大力发展科技 国防 经济 才有了今天的中国。章子怡的故事代表着那时候艰苦环境下仍然为祖国科技发展付出牺牲的每个人 徐峥代表的是生活在高速发展时代下的小人物 沈腾的故事 代表着我们的未来有无限可能。从故事来说，沈腾一如既往的最戳我笑点泪点，其他三个故事也都不错。

比tv好看多了！！！彰人：烦死了！23333
叙事和氛围烘托都比TV强很多，也能感觉到编剧导演想表达出来的核心思想。但是作为剧场版还是缺少了一些爆点，最后只憋出了个永辉形态，BOSS那边也只是拉了个德斯特鲁多斯来救场，邪恶特利迦的压迫感还是太弱了，作为剧场版很难满意，如果能把这部特别篇压缩成tv的上下两集哪怕是大结局，都算是神回了。
鸭先知的画面致敬十分舒适

这个话题确实很值得探讨，每个人站在不同的立场观点完全不同甚至相反，如男主角的妈妈，作为女权支持者和母亲，爸爸作为儿子的父亲和假设变成女孩的母亲，是完全不同的态度。
没有强奸也是强奸，因为告了你，轻轻的判一下。
最喜欢徐峥的故事，章子怡的题材不错，其他两个一般吧，沈腾的有点尬
tv当时大家狂喷是吃了泽塔太好的亏
