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.

几个熟悉角色的新声音听着稍微有点违和，不过不影响
最后40分钟的比赛片段太牛了。+1
机设方面，商业嘛，可以理解的
只可惜管理员太过分都不让人把片尾看完，害得我只能在外面听了两句主题曲
喜羊羊超级好看，每一个人物都喜欢，超级超级好看，推荐
我泪点越来越低了哭了好几次，这也太燃了家人们，没有一个角色边缘化，虎翼小白狼守护者队也太帅了
“你能为了这些孩子们战斗吗？”高达Origin的完美句号，安彦良和反战反核价值观的绝唱。每个人在年轻气盛的时候都以为自己能成为多安，但最后却像马科斯一样，连阿姆罗都比不上。P.S. 戈普这个打酱油的福将，到U.C.0089已经升任联邦中央议会的议长，权倾四野，也是一位相当复杂的人物，参见msv漫画强尼莱登的归来
很不错的电影 属于超出预期了 就是有点中二
篇幅太短，节奏略赶，角色太干，不过总归还是有一些亮点。（莫名其妙押韵了། – _ – །）
体育竞技这个方向没问题啊。狼羊转型做运动我也觉得很🉑。致敬五千多集的狼羊友谊!
本来想给三星的，寻思得有个7+分，结果才6.6，就增加一星支持一下。蛮好看的，虽然套路，但确实拍的不错，我那爱篮球的弟弟很喜欢，少年热血篮球，而且并不是只讲了喜羊羊与灰太狼，其他角色也都没有落下，不戳子。缺点是套路，看个开头就知道结局，人物脸谱化，强行亲子矛盾和解，不学习去打篮球也是非常韭菜思维，这是中国，不是美国，学习对于穷人家的孩子来说确实说得上是唯一一条稳妥的能靠努力出头的路了。外卖员的理想是给顾客送去热腾腾的饭菜？？让我想起刘涛那个烂剧里卖收音机是为了给非洲人送去信息打开世界的“格局”，非常憨批，说是为人民服务都比这强。不过打篮球受伤后来送外卖也太真实了。
总之，祝贺喜灰重回大荧幕，希望后续系列能出现我喜欢的题材。
好看好看，除了丑了点// 下着雪看了早上八点场的大电影。
弥补了春节没去影院看的遗憾。（排片真的好少啊啊啊）我知道结尾一定是主角赢得比赛，我知道它很童幻，但是这都不影响我爱它。童年和弟弟一起坐在电视机前看喜羊羊的时光，是我最珍爱的回忆之一。
真好看，在保留了各种炫目的动漫化特效处理的同时，也比较翔实地还原了篮球的战术配合和技术动作，甚至还有对艾弗森、安东尼和科比等球员的致敬桥段，主创团队真是太懂了。
机设方面，商业嘛，可以理解的
属于是在熊强和喜灰之间选择了后者
还TN的怪好看的，懒羊羊变三井寿，灰太狼成特么樱木花道了。
看喜洋洋长大的孩子如今也20多了，喜洋洋一句灰太狼我们认识多久了，真是情怀拉满
喜羊羊只给一代人看
