: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.

:“SPACED"是99年到01年间在英国4频道播出的情景喜剧,总共两季,每季七集。剧集的幕后核心是导演Edgar Wright和编剧兼主演的Simon Pegg、Jessica Stevenson。第一集里咖啡店偶遇的古怪失恋漫画家Tim和慵懒无业作家Daisy假冒成夫妻租到了一套公寓,故事就围绕着他俩的生活和微妙发展的关系展开起来。SPACED最吸引人的地方是它独特的视觉风格和对流行文化的频繁引用。初看剧集时肯定会觉得相当新鲜,因为那些频繁快速的镜头剪切和不断加入的闪回、插叙在传统情景喜剧中 都是极为罕见的;同样新鲜的是随处可见的模仿致敬段落,尤其是对CULT电影、漫画、游戏 的致敬,DVD里甚至为此还专设了一条homage字幕。SPACED里的人物也是个个特色鲜明且神经质抵死,尤其是四位配角-古怪又怀春的老房东Marsha,诡异的行为艺术画家房客Brian, Tim的军事狂人好友Mike,还有Daisy的做作时尚好友Twist。这些异趣味十足的特色使得 SPACED本身也成了CULT经典,在英国本土拥有了大量忠实粉丝。籍着SPACED的成功,Edgar Wright和Simon Pegg这对搭档得以进军大银幕,拍出了去年 轰动全球的“僵尸肖恩”,甚至还因此获得了在罗梅罗大师丧尸系列完结篇LAND OF THE DEAD中客串僵尸的荣幸。看过SPACED再来看“僵尸肖恩”肯定只有一个感觉:如出一辙的视 觉效果、搞笑手法和几乎相同的演员班底,后者简直就是前者的电影版。事实上SPACED也一 直有要拍电影版的传言放出,但Simon Pegg明确表示它根本就不适合搬上大银幕,不过至少有一个好消息是确凿无疑的,SPACED还要拍第三季,而且很可能还会有些特殊剧集,只是究竟何时开拍目前还是未知数。
