1ST 'WORZEL GUMMIDGE' PHOTO
FROM BBC NEW ADAPTATION
BBC has revealed the first photo of Mackenzie Crook as scarecrow from two part mini series WORZEL GUMMIDGE which he is also directing. It sees two young strangers, Susan and John, arrive in the village of
Scatterbrook, where they encounter Gummidge. Their world is sent spinning into confusion when they realize 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.
Mackenzie Crook both directs and portrays the lead character in the Christmas series |
Munich's breweries are a perfect setting to a great drama. If the language spoken is german, then it will give the film the right autenthicity.
ReplyDelete(Oktoberfest, a two-week annual festival in Munich, is very famous and popular).
Yes, it will be in German!
DeleteWhat a scary looking character. I wouldn't want to cross his path in a dark alley!
ReplyDeleteI think he is a goodhearted scarecrow :) Mackenzie is probably uglier without the mask LOL, hope he isn't reading this :)
DeleteMaybe we'll get a trailer for it and he won't look so creepy once we see something other than a still photo of him.
DeleteProbably not any time soon, they've just started shooting and BBC usually gives us trailer a week before airing, posh bastards!
