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.

给真是个谐星，在他：“我爸是个柱奸”啊的崩溃袭击中我获取了快乐。但是片子挺难看的。
如果不是游戏玩家还给不了三星，英灵台词都砍了，决战如此贫穷，主角打boss的最后一击都没画面，bgm也不搭
从开服玩到现在的游戏，为了情怀我也必须打满分。看到英灵集结真的泪目（悄悄说一句，为啥不多来几条语音？），肝不要了，全部都满破！（再悄悄说一句，还是游戏剧情更好看）
2.5/5 不得不说I'm A Lady真的是好听
整体感觉还行吧
完全粉丝向的作品，开滤镜多加一颗星。当然我从一开始就认为，时间神殿的影视化不会好看，毕竟它几乎没有剧情。跟人王打的那场简直胡闹，游戏里这关其实不算很简单，当然这种影视化处理确实是不得已而为之。很喜欢罗曼临走前摘下工牌的细节，以及，完成Grand Order以后和玛修一起注视的南极的天空，无论看多少次都让我心生感动。医生，芙芙，玛修，迦勒底的各位，这段旅程有你们同行，我深怀感谢。
叙事OK 但是省经费的英灵出场和战斗实在不行，扣一星
芙芙或成FGO系列最大软柿子（这部怎么看着甚至有点狗… ）并不畅快的体验，再加上一起打游戏为学妹啊啊啊呜呜呜嗷嗷嗷的人已经（），观后感就是自己给自己添堵。
无数的邂逅，无数的未来，这是交织着爱与希望的故事。虽然不及游戏终章那时带来的震撼和压迫，尽管剧场版也只是走马观花，但依旧觉得很燃很感动，一骑当千的人类史的英雄们于此集结，又要说再见了罗玛尼，玛修真美。
比较一般，燃点很少而且断断续续，如果能像复联最后连着半个小时各个人物出场，放个大招，多说几句话我就能打满分了。如果不是fgo说实话感觉很其他剧情公式一样，嘴炮，打架，打的说的还不好看，情怀里的英灵都太少戏份了，没玩游戏看的也有点难度。
游戏的原作格局所限，也确实很难设计出丰满的剧情，但打斗场面是收货了。唯一可惜的是，出场的声优太少，不够过瘾。
一辆自行车两个妈妈三个朋友，共同铸造了我所爱的温暖的人类，就像夏夜吹来的凉爽抚平了白日喧嚣，一切都那么安然，让人情不自禁想要微笑
俗套的青春故事。关于自我探索，关于家庭关系，关于朋友，关于青春期的萌动。一些青春代餐。不需要自己做新的探索找理由。
另外好不容易拍出来了想着大家都会多少说点啥，结果大部分都是哑巴，只有盖总在唠叨
我记得七章加这个的剧情是吸引我打了通宵的，为什么动画一点都没有那种震撼的感觉
靠着情怀加一星，虽然说有请不起声优的原因，但是有的声优是同一个也好像没有用起来，不太懂资金问题，但是这么嗨的大场面被做的这么平淡不应该只是没钱请声优的问题，电影节奏分镜难咎其辞，还是打游戏燃啊……不过真的很爱贞德呜呜呜
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
为男主最后圆梦女主没参加毕业舞会流泪
劇情，砍的嚴重重要台詞全部沒有，放寶具全部啞巴，把我的醫生還給我，把那個讓我感動的醫生還給我😡😡😡
真的给我逗乐了，纯纯游戏玩家限定片，但还比不上ppt游戏本身的表现力，情怀三星了。
