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.

有些低于预期，其实这部不太应该算同性？男二更像是跨性别吧。男主的颜值肉体没得说（露点好评），但是就整部电影而言，前半个小时真的有点无聊了，然后才算进入了正轨，而且整个的人物塑造都很模糊，男主究竟是犯了什么事，最后为何会选择接受和面对来一个happy ending，都完全没有说清楚。
两人视角的转换很喜欢，之前看过一部罗马尼亚的电影也一样《集体》。你带着爱来找我，我带着你的爱离开。
虽然无中生有了一出（只存在于台词中的）男主暴力视频，但是好男人男主除了皱着眉头对男二说了两次“你骗了我”根本没有任何暴力倾向，那这片子前一个小时在拍啥啊？男二和教士，男主和亲妹妹，男二和姐妹，这片子有这么多能讲的东西，把前半截浪费的篇幅匀一些给赶场样的后半段不好吗？开场半个小时打片头到底是谁起的坏头，导演是不是利用职务之便偷看了滨口龙介的样片？
感动，如果我有一个叫萨拉的孩子，我会让他活出自我
车站送别的戏，音乐一响起来，眼泪就掉下来了
电影结尾为什么要加那段厕所一炮呢，为什么不能停在车站里那句
能把动物电影拍得这么难看也是没谁了！全靠风景和动物撑着！人物一个比一个傻！
太慢热。我都准备好了去群里艾特春和无橙，她俩都说好看这忽悠谁呢！？……好吧后半部分的确挺可爱（。男主的爷爷为了奶奶永远留在了小城，大叔说“也许我也想做个消防员呢？”被骗气疯了之后与自己和解，最终承认 爱上了没办法我认栽 的笑甜炸了。
我喜欢的部分截止在他步行的那个绿色的夜晚。
好不容易才在那片荒漠中砸碎石膏放下枷锁，却因为之前不清不楚的热恋焚烧掉一切可能——人世间的“有缘无份”大抵如此，也许遗憾才是一个最好的结局。和易装男二的自我觉醒不同，“被欺骗”的男一的情绪转变才更是影片的重点。能放下那么多规则爱上一个人的内心，缺丝毫不突兀，这才是这部酷儿电影最值得称道的地方。离开这片荒漠吧，看看窗外，一路上都开满了花。
这啥呀这是？啊？有人吗？有人吗？两星给王珞丹，一星给没表达出来的立意。还我血汗钱68块，吃一顿串串不香吗？
高出预期的一部电影，两个人好有CP感哦……虽然最后没在一起，但还挺为他俩高兴的。
而另一位小镇青年，小心的掩藏着自己的秘密，在封闭而禁锢的小镇，他不敢也不能做自己。他只能在网上做真实的自己，渴望外面的世界。然而，他的真实对于一个直男来说就是欺骗。真正的爱，可以不分性别，但却容不下谎言。两人之间与其说是爱情，倒不如说是两个残缺的灵魂，彼此想要寻找安慰。
故事胡扯 小狼和小狮子毛茸茸滴好想rua一把
一刚一柔却同样压抑的两个灵魂 与其看做是一场注定没有结果的爱情 其实更是通过彼此得到了解放和重生
不喜欢最后结尾的搞基，相别两宽应该更美好，毕竟前面的主题都是寻找真实的自己。
从预告片开始就一直很期待能够有新颖剧情，只是后来没有字幕不得不看全英。安东尼奥很帅，影片整体的画面很唯美，但和自己所期望的有些差距，有些失望。
崆峒即深柜的极好诠释。影片前一个小时都在缓慢铺陈，难免让人感觉与后半部分有一定割裂感，丹尼尔作为逐渐面对自己内心的男性角色，隐忍的情感让人亦恨亦怜。感叹两颗行星短暂重合的命运。
剧情给3.5星，男主迪克0.5星。算是从预告出来就很期待的电影，熬夜看完感觉也很值得。直男爱上我很扯但是电影里拍得很美，片子前半段大量时长给的各种铺垫也算是把心里挣扎理清楚了。有些可惜是没交代清楚为什么男主会对新兵动手，个人还蛮好奇的
说实话没有看懂，可能是有点深奥，讲的很现实是文化是社会的写实，比我大语气要高，不适合小孩看
