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.

比老派黑帮还老派的低成本高智商反转电影，高超的编剧技巧和演技给人久违的眼前一亮的感觉，完美诠释了什么叫老谋深算。
孙锡久勉强加一星吧 撑到了第20分钟 好无聊的类型片 好无聊的肌肉男主 好无聊的反派 在杀人不眨眼切人当切菜这方面 既不够变态又不够邪 我大呼真tm无聊
无论西装还是陷阱，无非是精巧地勾画设计加上精准地剪裁实施。单一场景内的环环相扣完成得不俗，但受限于视听调度和质感营造，没能带动出更大的叙事能量和情绪张力，Mark Rylance的演出可能是最大亮点所在。三星半
戏剧感很强，在单一的空间里靠演技撑起剧情的辗转，英伦量体师的浓郁绅士风颇为吸引人。
为什么我现在看这种电影，会有这样一种感觉：除了主角，其他人都有点不太聪明，所以主角一股自作聪明的样子......
剧情就是各种反转，女主虽然老气了些，但着实漂亮。
硬反转太多，单一空间设置没有充分利用空间，逻辑硬伤颇多。
1.这家裁缝店太漂亮了，是我喜欢的风格。2.男主的老实人人设太强，即使是挑拨离间所有人也相信他的话。3.每个人的衣服都好适合他们，量身定做真的很棒，希望我们的小镇也有这样的店。4.喜欢去裁缝店改衣服，但店无一不是乱糟糟的老样式，没这么精致，哦，那些新派的西装定制店，走的是网红风。
继承了第一部的风格，马东锡太帅了，“我是哈尔滨的张晨！”这句一出直接笑抽，真是绝了。孙锡久释放了自己展现了狂野的表演，但相比第一部的张晨还是欠了点阴冷。这个系列请一直拍下去吧。
这里絮絮叨叨就不招人烦，大概因为这里的絮叨都是有作用的。而某些片里的絮叨就是为了拖戏。
女主不是很喜欢。
是内地导演们想要翻拍但是原版在内地院线最多2000万票房的看上去很反转很极限其实无聊到需要掐人中才能不打瞌睡的电影。
整个故事中规中矩，但这个IP能走到这一步，其实侧面也展现了韩国的工业水平确实是挺强的。马东锡演的西吧侠其实有点看疲倦了，但是孙锡久好帅啊，我可以。
马东锡一掌超人宇宙又一续作。观感上没有上一部暴力，其他元素都差不多。如果上一部尚且还对马东锡的能力有质疑，觉得东北张全蛋可以一战，这一作熟悉了套路就没啥悬念了，设定里他是无敌的，不仅力量点满，敏捷度其实也极高。我觉得这个系列如果没有进一步升级来个百人斩之类的差不多就不用拍了，可以参考一下印尼的突袭。
精彩！这才是优秀编剧散发的魅力，一个夜晚一间裁缝店里的故事，纯靠反转推进的一出戏，全程对白推动，耸动性却在逐渐递增，铺成谜团与诡计讨巧在空间里不断流动，绝佳的悬疑气氛与出色的表演相映成趣，同样是具有年代感的黑帮犯罪故事，却摆脱了近几年流水线上千篇一律的动作戏，亦或是商业片强加的光环依托，完全在密闭空间里实现了精彩纷呈，而且手法更显高明，区区几个角色的演绎就能将空间内的张力以及芝加哥黑帮势力处理的暗流涌动，预谋者穿针引线，支配者不断拆线纳入新谜团，几个回合下来完全表达了编剧和导演的诉求与实现，好像话剧舞台上的剧情流转，不追求过分深刻，亦无宏大愿景，只是对文本的优缺做了一次收合与裁剪，疫情期间阅烂片无数，遇到这种追加诚意和暗藏精妙的片子，感觉像淘到好物一般，惊喜不言而喻。★★★★
第一部是在韩国的中国人，第二部在越南的韩国人，下一部是要拍在欧美的亚洲人(然后在外星的地球人)？
把黑帮片拍出了推理片的趣味，封闭空间的又一部好戏
好家伙 现在英国裁缝都不是单纯的裁缝这事已经要成为现代英国Myth了 老头这一通操作猛如虎老母猪戴胸罩一样一套又一套的出拳都给我看傻了 年轻人还是嫩啊 老爷子当你面告诉你自己是内鬼你都不信 女人说出这话你还是不信 那算了 没这个格局就只能做死了的黑帮人士了/整部电影都没出裁缝铺半步 勤俭持家的剧组 裁缝做衣服的一套流程讲解看得我如痴如醉 强迫症感到满意
真的是 太！好！看！了！ 第一次看动作戏这么上头！都想再去电影院看一遍！孙锡久这个男人真的是太sexy了！妥妥的行走的男性荷尔蒙！2022我就认他一个！！
前有黄政民李政宰《从邪恶中拯救我》泰国大战，再到《犯罪都市2》马东锡孙锡久越南大战，留给韩国演员的东南亚国家不多了。张谦蛋已不在江湖，江湖还留有他的传说。韩国这类商业片拍得纯熟，每次都有一个十足疯逼的反派，这是最重要的。
