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.

洋泡泡有用，
总计折叠我4h22min
观于美东飞往夏威夷的漫长旅途之二。开篇莫名其妙的探戈和无视外部性的hotelier精神就很烦
比如，最开始的一段舞蹈，既不够美，也毫无意义，虽然后面呼应安插了一段跳舞，但那根本不重要！
日本人那种偏执的service心态被放大了10倍吧... 想起来之前在一个很小的酒店里面看着前台的小妹妹很用心的做乌冬面的场景了。此外，都说大牌云集光看cast猜不出凶手可是为什么我一看到麻生久美子就猜到了呢哈哈，《时效警察》之后终于又见到了啊，演技真的是没得说。再此外：为什么不能加标签了？？
这个系列就看卡司得了，东野圭吾的原著都不怎么样，更别说电影还把嘴关键的设定改掉了。
难看到勉强撑过一小时后关注重点跑到一个讲跨年夜的电影在日本定档917还给我在那边新年快乐？
出场人物那叫一个多，反复记人很累的好吗！在正式情节结束前一分钟，我以为我上一部瞎了，竟然看出了新田和山岸的感情线。谁知道新田在山岸临出发去洛杉矶前突然间又约饭！这大概就是“死去的感情线突然复活并且攻击了我”
虽说推理是差了一些，但是喜欢这种节奏的电影。。虽说小说还没续集。。但这电影结局怎么也像是有续集的样子。。可太甜了
导演啊，能不能稍微把麻酱拍美点，让木村少装酷一点。编剧啊，能不能把推理部分改编得更具魅力些（作案动机也太没说服力，况且这凶手小屁孩都不会错认性别吧），能不能合理些（告密者是怎么知道凶手电话的；人躺那居然不是第一时间诊察还活着没；包搁那半天居然没人上去检查）；能不能精简人物、情节和台词。
又臭又长。建议第三部：凶手“请你们帮我杀个人”，服务员“只要是客人要求，我们一定办得到！”
女武神流畅过瘾的打戏是我觉得近几年漫威的电影里最出色的近战戏。冷兵器的挥舞既饱含打击感，又不失女性的优雅魅力。上次在漫威电影里遇到让我重看好几次的打戏还是《雷神3》的海拉
推理也比较弱，长泽雅美也不犯二，只能三星
Masquerade Night 2021 Blu-ray 1080p AVC DTS-HD MA 5.1-DIY@TTG，2:08:53.934 (h:m:s.ms)， 41.88 GB
嗯，就节奏不是特别明亮，有点糊。反正都看长泽雅美跟木村，其他的根本看不见
这个和前作的重点难道不是鱼叔吗？【手动狗头
# 【Masquerade Hotel】续集，"警察卧底酒店"的磨合过程相对更迅速，更直接切入的案件和悬疑比上部更聚焦，支线悬疑也更加围绕主线案情，"举报人和凶手"和"杀人方式"等推理点的逐步揭开有推理趣味。
木村大神怎么更帅了最后那一慕简直颜狗福音 和麻酱老婆的cp感也越来越强 推理故事一般般吧感觉人物太多犯罪主角的动机和心理描写都被弱化了
一样的套路再来一遍，就真不如上一部耐看。田中美奈实的狠劲比不上松隆子，作案动机稀里糊涂带过，也是服气。构图越来越韦斯安德森，都是发生在饭店里的故事，但调度和剪辑差到姥姥家。还有长泽脸怎么这么大，怎么回事。
不透露客人隐私也是脑残，人家是警察啊，而且都要出人命了，还不能透露？
