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.

我以为就是普通旧瓶旧酒，没想到还很感动。唐顿庄园吸引我的地方在于把很多激烈的碰撞融合在了一个温和的童话里了。时代的更迭与变迁，传统的瓦解，好像有了善良和正义一切都没有关系。哪怕你知道生活不是童话，但美好的东西还是会很治愈。连老太太死的时候都那么美好，死之前还有一段自己年轻时候爱而不得的故事，像廊桥遗梦一样。深深爱过就够了，怎样都会有遗憾的，拥有的感情哪怕不是最爱也是值得珍惜的。我想婆婆一直装着的那个男人的照片，就像一个年轻时的梦，永远不会逝去。lady Mary是最幸运的entj了，有着传递火炬给自己的estj，有着爱自己sfj爸爸妈妈，有着死去的infp爱人，有着第二任工作狂爱人，还有一个示爱但是被自己残忍拒绝的导演。我喜欢这样平静温暖的故事，有点小风波，这就是生活呀。
在第一部电影版时，就说过是多年来终于又有一部像《欲望都市》一样从小银幕走上大银幕拍续集，大规模上映票房大收的作品了，所以果然很快就开始第二部续集电影版，第一部是英王光临，第二部是代表着新时代电影明星取景，果然都很吸引，尤其时代变迁是《唐顿庄园》不变的主题，依然做得很好
Dreams came true.谁叫我是粉丝呢！
无论如何，都希望每个人能在纷繁世间找到最能显示真实自我的幸福，无论直弯。最通透的老夫人，最坚强的玛丽，最可靠的老管家。
2小时内要把所有人物的性格特点展现出来并安排好令人满意的结果属实不易，对我没看过剧的人来说也没什么障碍，但确实也没啥情怀。
唐家屯是个美好的地方，总是乐于助人，也就总能收获美满，富贵温馨，祥瑞快乐，同时极富感染力，让每一个生活其间的人都被同化感召。本片最令人遗憾的是老太太终于走了。
即使唐家屯人老来可亲得都快成小猪佩琦风了，但音乐一起还是让人买单啊。
对这类新式仿古典通俗剧，演员发挥都四平八稳，实在没有多大兴趣，也就勉强可以看看
激动的心颤抖的手，电影院终于开了！电影这条线怎么感觉像那鱼呢？
一人包场看完. 的确是一个时代的告别，新时代的开启，每一个熟悉的面孔全染上岁月的痕迹，就像是老朋友，希望他们都有美好的结局。
粉丝的钱真好赚啊。 其实剧情已经不重要了。 各自怀念着属于自己的黄金时代。 然后就过去了美好的两个小时。
我花钱就让我看默片时代唐顿片场？又cue默片向有声片的转型期了。那个时代的片场和屏幕前有小乐池的电影院的片段可以上课用。另一条线就是老太太和法南老情人的神秘渊源
华丽到饱和的色彩滤镜，尽情展示上流之繁花，电影之电影，景秀年华。
👏论如何把一锅杂烩煮得有模有样。古迪子上部打酱油这部失踪 但又不能老让大小姐死老公 我能想象制片多咬牙切齿 怀疑古迪子应该得罪过不少人… 这几年也没什么大动作…
有幸入坑
套用当时贾樟柯挤兑滕华涛的评价，中景接中景，估计是预计所有影迷都是剧迷，不用任何客套了。后面还真的渐渐看进去了，只能说是 IP 的魅力——人们不想让这个活在泡泡里的完美家庭受到伤害。
从第一季追过来的人怎么可能不喜欢这部唐家屯儿呢，满满的情怀。M&M，逝去的CP突然攻击我！
视角停顿转换特别舒适、流畅，长镜头恰到好处，还是英国人会拍英国人🥺。休的魅力挡不住。
有人向往着脱离贫困的新生活，
哎哟中间太困了睡着了，然后……电影院空调太冷了冻死我了，
