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.

2.剧情拖沓冗长，缺少吸引力，缺乏新意和亮点，看了两次时间，怎么还不结束。
They are from everywhere
这是七连的冰与火之歌，这是吴京的《战狼4》~剩下的一切尽在不言中~
有个观众说，看完《水门桥》后认为中国一定要搞好工业。我都觉得这是个好主题。可惜这部片子也不能往这里拍。
特效有进步，有种血战钢锯岭的感觉。里面有句话蛮打动我的：我们这一代打仗就是为了我们下一代不打。唉，活在历史中。
比第一部要流畅。从单纯的战争动作片角度是不错的。煽情可以更克制一点。
新年的第一次哭泣给了千玺弟弟 文戏和感情戏不多但是很顺的串起了全剧 千里和平河最后的对手戏是第一个泪点 梅生开车冲下去是第二个泪点 万里最后接过旗子直接泪崩 全剧最后千里和万里的对手戏结束影院的人情绪都到顶点了 旁边小朋友和他的爸爸都开始偷偷抹眼泪 总体观感比第一部好很多 是很合格的贺岁片
刚开始看：这片子水平还是不错的，有三星的水平。比第一部流畅很多，风格统一，细节到位，意识到了文戏不足就少拍文戏多拍打戏，战场的残忍尺度也比第一部更大。虽然整体仍是差不多的跌宕起伏和主旋律煽情，但胜在完成度高…调度、演员、剧本巴拉巴拉
比第一部短一些，比第一部看的难过了些，比第一部更惨了些，第七穿插连应到157人，实到1人，我哭死了
看得出来影片成本很高，拍的很辛苦，演员表演很卖力气，没了
有些战争我们必须打，没有退路，有些牺牲我们必须上，没有余地，战斗精神无畏，中国人民志愿军万岁。
可惜了好演员，只是这影片的追求实在是...
期待电视剧版
相比同期的狙击手 仿佛没有了个体的情感与内心变化 只有群像式的宏伟与悲壮 大场面的视效看多了总会让人生厌 落得到最后也不过就是总该如此的不痛不痒
PS：最终美帝还是依托强大的工业和技术领先性，搭桥走人，遗憾的告诉我们，想要打赢，就得靠实力，过去一样，现在仍然一样！奋斗吧，吾辈继续着…
以及这部真的不太适合随便带孩子看，看的话也可以先补补课讲讲相关历史常识。除了画面比较血腥小朋友会被吓到以外，观察了下周围的情况，小朋友基本完全不感兴趣坐不住，对不了解的故事表现得比较冷漠_(:зゝ∠)_
在我心里，没有一部电影可以拍好朝鲜战争。电影一方面太浓墨重彩，一方面又太过苍白，不论如何都很难重现70年前那些轻描淡写又重如泰山的牺牲。看到某些场面可能想说太夸张啦！但曾经有比这更夸张的；有些场面想说太单调了，但现实比这些还要苍白。但不管怎么说，都还是庆幸有这些描写朝鲜战争的片子，至少他们可以提醒一代又一代的中华儿女铭记这段艰难的时光。
大场面，前期让人热血沸腾，后半部分达到了反战警示的效果
别的不说 配音太烂了 无意义的慢镜头太多 根本不是个用心之作
情怀吧，对于军人的情怀，对于牺牲的感性，对于士兵突击钢七连的情怀，都让我最后一下顶不住。
