Worzel Gummidge

Prefer JP’s Worzel as he seemed more rustic but MC’s is doing a fine job. Is MC going to change his heads like the old Worzel? The bikers were too scary for younger children I’m afraid.

I loved it. I didn't mean to watch it but was drawn in by the acting and the message. Mackenzie Crook said so much just with his eyes! I used to love the old one too but I thought this was an excellent reworking of it. The bikers were genius.

Pudding; I agree; they really freaked me out. Even the nice lady scarecrow reminds me of a character out of 'The Living and the Dead', and I don't think I'd want my younger grandchildren to watch it. I did love it, though.

I loved it! I hope there's to be more.

Loved it ,McKenzie Crook is so talented,the scarecrow bikers gave me the Ebeegebers at first but they were comical at the end.I hope there are more episode's to come.

I thought it was lovely. McKenzie Crook is so good at this sort of thing.

We all absolutely loved it. Even our 11 year old took out his earphones and watched it.

I loved it. The Biker scarecrows really made me laugh.

No not feeling it.

I thought it was clever and well acted but I prefer the Jon Pertwee one. When our DD was little, it was her favourite programme. We took her to the stage show and she met Jon Pertwee at a book signing. I haven't read the books so maybe this new one is closer to the books.

I do hope they make more.

I like it, and Mackenzie Crook was good as Worzel, BUT I prefer John Pertwee playing Worzel, with his daft walk, voice and expressions.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and cant wait for more

Love it!

I loved it I even managed to get a grumpy friend to watch and he loved it too.

I have never seen the John Pertwee version but I did read the books when I was very young and loved those.

The two children were really lovely and seemed to be enjoying themselves. `

Loved it!

Both enjoyed it here.
Lovely adaptation and acting by Mackenzie Crook.
The children were great too.

Thanks, tanith I expected her to appear all the way through.

She didn’t appear in the second episode Callistemon.

We enjoyed it but where was Aunt Sally?

DH said she was in the museum but I must have nodded off at that point.

I really enjoyed the first episode. I'm looking forward to the next one. DH was out at work this evening, so I didn't watch it. We'll see it together tomorrow.

Nothing - not even Jon Pertwee - is as good as the book.

I am loving it

It’s a no from me Tanith - I loved Jon Pertwee, Una Stubbs etc and won’t be watching the second episode
