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.

You have the mysterious gift of being a sex saint. 夸人就要这么夸。
“你的身体很美，真希望你能‘看到’。”
设定很新颖，立意很进步，但是故事极其俗套，除了两人很养眼其他真没啥看的。想到也是有点禁忌两人相遇互相救赎的电影，超脱就要深刻一百倍
一 二 三 四
感觉男主演了个女性幻想中的理想型男菩萨；角色性转一下这故事会被骂死吧）
看完感动了，对服务生坦白后那一整段都很有劲。orgasm的镜头也太真了吧。
判断一部影片对不对盘，开篇的分别拍摄：普且刻意，到出现第二次会面的安排：方向性彻底失控（摇头）。话疗片一旦在推进过程中有多次的不自然的卡顿尴尬，在我这里就算完了…… ps不可否认艾玛的表演尤其是在餐厅的那身打扮很好看 但这个本子真不行
四次递进的交谈，一次非进入式的高潮。性的美妙在于它发生的整个过程。那些令人心颤的，仿佛沐浴在温暖的海水里的摇曳，那个自由自在，丢弃羞耻感的瞬间，将人推到浪尖……
角色场景都如此之少，却一点也不乏味。无尿点看完全片，跃跃欲试哈，国内哪里找😏
尼采说的对，那些杀不死你的，终将使你更强大

pleasure is not a shame.看名字还以为是一个温情故事，但看完想到的是《女性瘾者》，不在于剧情，而在于启蒙、探索。
做只鸡做只鸭别做情人，花钱买的至少可爱迷人。
8.5/10 男主Leo的眼睛太深邃了，盯著你看的時候很輕易地就陷進去，而且業務能力好強，完全不會給客人任何不舒適的感覺，而且還有可憐遭遇激發同情心，誰能拒絕這樣溫柔脆弱的性感尤物呢
哈哈哈群众眼睛是雪亮的，不论性别，并不存在这么敬业的技师和这么诚实不自信的甲方
选角也太成功了系列。矛盾是有趣的，“你一定会是只好猫。”
认识自己，认识自己的身体，最后时刻保持某种界限
男主像亦舒小说的男主角从书页里走出来一样：浓眉长睫，皮肤光洁，五官亮丽，笑容带金光，有男子气概又不乏书卷气，会跳舞会开香槟，三个A+。但Emma是赋予这一切意义的人，当她被问道“为何你那么害怕失望”，我几乎与她同步说出“因为此前的人生总是让人失望”；当她赤裸着身体站在镜子前，我为那股强迫所有人的目光正视这一切的力量鼓掌。
2、每一个人都生而美丽。爱自己，就是爱一切的开始。
各方面都很出色的一部片，就今年看过的片子，它的精彩甚至不输给妈的宇宙。希望大家都可以任性地选择爱自己多一点，以及多给自己挣（攒）钱
