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.

用邦德重拍“暴力史”。只有古巴任务一气呵成，Rami Malek在商业片里不行
丹尼尔的收官之作水准一言难尽，剧情已经到了匪夷所思的地步，人死的也莫名其妙，新任007的选角更是 只有政治正确，没有任何让人期待的感觉
imax 2d沙丘完了二进宫……竟然是真探s1的导演！想知道BenQ做饭在等哪个he：）
開頭拍的是真不錯。先是一段蕾老師的回憶。現時，James Bond和Léa Seydoux退隱江湖，驅車穿過黝黑的隧道，彷彿進入短暫而甜蜜的夢，不慎遭遇魔鬼黨的埋伏，痛苦過去一直糾纏著這對苦命鴛鴦，Bond躲避敵人的追殺，同時內心亦懷疑起看似無辜的枕邊人。這時導演不斷縮小構圖，最後以鐘樓頂端為畫內框，框住四面楚歌的兩人，響徹天際的鐘聲似乎預示夢醒時分，真的無處可逃了嗎？原來，這是導演精心設計的一個障眼法，Bond使出隱藏殺手鐧，暫時與戀人化險為夷。然而，在該段結尾，這對情侶卻被迫分離：各自懷揣的秘密摧毀了他們的關係。攝影機換到列車上蕾老師主觀視角，橫移卷軸鏡頭追逐著漸漸遠去的Bond身影，此時屬於兩人的美妙夢境宣告結束，但對觀眾來說，緩緩啟動的列車－片頭動畫才正是入（電影）夢的開始⋯⋯
每次看007感受都差不多，一边觉得真好啊真嫉妒英国人不徐不疾不变应万变把品牌元素重复到极致的文化自信，一边无感无共鸣无动情。但是真的，007的魅力就是不过度依赖特效技术，只不断升级机关和工具带来的爽感。最减分的地方是，2021年了，反派还是冷战苏联余党，真的不累吗？
前半部分基本符合对于007电影的期待，甚至对于找个黑人女007戏言的回应，还有点惊喜。后半段太垮了，这告别显得很敷衍，也完全不詹姆斯·邦德。还有1.43看的色调很重，不知道是不是银幕原因。古巴小姐姐MVP！
q的date是谁，他是切了黄瓜放蒸笼里了吗？
IMAX2D非常好看！几个点：1，007第一次出现了血亲后代，他获得了“永生”，所以就可以无悔赴死？2，英国军舰居然日常就在日俄海域溜达？3，为啥喷了那个香水毒药能把监狱里的爹毒死，而自己和女儿却没事？4，小女孩在车上一直说被蚊子咬了，我还以为她中毒了😂
国内友邻还没看就不涉及剧透了 很规矩的三星半（还是片头表现最佳）各种元素基本集齐 查无此七鸽档系列总算完结）
007的片头可以出一个特辑，美学风格真的是当下审美的较高水准了。说回剧情，把007写死让克雷格退出我是没想到的，就是文戏太多，160分钟拍的太罗嗦了。
主题曲配片头很好听。每个人心中都有一部007，我的那部是Skyfall。最嗲的是007无暇赴死这名字，搭配996择日而亡真的笑死了。
讲几个脑洞：
说克雷格是最惨邦德应该没毛病吧，先后送走了自己的初恋，送走了自己母亲一样的上司，送走了自己的挚友，最后连……都送走了，这部和上一部幽灵党一样，后半段反派塑造不足，导致有些泄力，加一星给落幕的克雷格和登场15分钟的00特工，后者太惊艳了，希望能成为系列常驻惹
电影永远不会让天煞孤星有一个好归宿。
丹尼尔系列挖掘了邦德深层人性的一面。
说来都不敢相信，这是我看的第一部丹尼尔克雷格的007
每看一部新的007我都想回去看皇家赌场，这部甚至还好意思放Vesper的墓🚬怎么说呢，像看了个思想极其保守的主旋律电影，英雄退休了就该有漂亮新老婆还该有小孩，找个黑人女007特工也掩盖不住这股正气🚬越野追逐的大型汽车广告还是挺好看的，丹叔的身手也依旧让人很过瘾，就是这剧情我实在看得犯困，只有00Q元素依旧让我觉得好他妈可爱，Q是最可爱的技术宅乖崽🥺
007版勇闯夺命岛，反派一定要多看点儿加缪，他们的誓言估计自己都不信。
邦德，一个老派的风流男人，重逢旧爱时那场表白，我看笑了，新007对邦德的态度就是我的态度。万万没想到风流也会有“老派”这一种，新时代只有渣男和n号房了……反派对邦德的惩罚也显得很古典，惩罚一个还有精力和能力去爱别人的男人……安娜好帅！
有点散和乏味。主要是为了看美女杜老师和安娜
