Now first a brief outline of the story..... First there was a little Scarecrow called Worzel Gummidge (played by the late and great Jon Pertwee) who's job as it happens is to be a scarecrow in Ten Acre Field but he on the other hand has other ideas. He takes every opportunity to leave the crows to have the field and he gets up to many adventures with the help of his two titchy human friends (Sue is played by the late Charlotte Coleman and John played by Jeremy Austin). Worzel was made by his father figure "The Crowman" (played by Geoffrey Bayldon of Catweazle fame) who makes all of the Scarecrows in the land and with a little country magic names them and they come to life. All the scarecrows are very respectfull of the Crowman for giving them ... Read More:

Having received Series 1 as a Christmas gift from my sister (prompted by me!) I realised that I had to buy Series 2 to quench my thirst for more!

With two little boys aged 5 and 2, I was very much looking forward to showing them my favourite childhood show from my girlhood more than 20 years ago. I was thrilled that they sat still, glued to the television for each episode without any fidgeting. I think that the simplicity of the storylines and easy-going viewing is a rare thing to our children, their usual programmes are so fast-paced and action packed that these lovely episodes of fun and mischief are a change for them - easy going and very, very watchable.

I must admit, I had forgotten quite how horrible Worzel and Aunt Sally are to ... Read More:

In my youth the BBC ran a strand of films on Saturday evening entitled The Saturday Thriller. First off was Psycho, which was the first time I'd seen that movie, then came The Innocents which had a much greater effect on me. I have seen the former many times since and it is obviously a classic but I have only just seen The Innocents again and I was stunned at how creepy it really is, especially as I see more in it now than I did as a child.

At the time I first saw this movie my grandmother was living in a lodge house next to a rather neglected large country house, in front of the house was an area of long grass that was reminiscent of the scene where the figure of the previous, dead, nanny had appeared in the reed bed next to the lake in the film. ...

Polish sailor Bronislav (Bronik), played by Horst Bucholz, has been looking forward to seeing his sweetheart in Cardiff's Tiger Bay dock area (the home place of Shirley Bassey, the British partly West Indian-origined singer). That young woman is living "loosely" and is not interested in making a life and home with the young seaman. An argument ensues and she is shot, the weapon being a revolver given to her by another lover...

The killing is seen by young Hayley Mills, a girl of ? maybe 11 (in reality, 13), who puts in a superb performance. John Mills plays the relentless detective for whom catching the criminal is all that matters. The young (20 or so) seaman and the younger girl form an attachment which is somewhere between friendship and romance but ... Read More:

There's a fair amount of stress at a small hospital outside of London, what with the buzz-bombs overhead, the staff falling in and out of love with each other, not to mention the fact that the patients and the staff are starting to turn up dead . . .

And so we are launched into what remains one of the best mystery movies ever made, GREEN FOR DANGER (the title is a clue, incidentally), a murder puzzle set not amongst a group Agatha Christie-ish stick figures, but wearied, ragged, basically decent people pushed close to their limits by war-time conditions and their own messy emotional entanglements.

It's one of those buzz-bombs that sends the local postman Joseph Higgins (Moore Marriot) to the hospital; also an air-raid warden, his shelter gets bombed ... Read More:

This story shows Jon Pertwee in his classic role as a true comic actor. With the abundance of other stars who support him in the way that only "stars" can "A Cup O' Tea An' A Slice O' Cake" is entertainment that will keep kids (of all ages) entertained time and time again.

Whether or not you have read the original Worzel stories (why not search for them!) you will find this interpretation is true to the spirit (sorry, the "cup of tea") that Barbara Euphan Todd portrayed so well in the original printed form, but adapted for the TV screen in a way that used the talents of the late great Jon Pertwee to bring the scarecrow fully alive.

A great film, my Mum was a war worker and found the film amazing and really moving, so close to home it brought on a few tears and many smiles of rememberance. We should not forget the work at home in the UK accepting the concept of 'Total War', all citizens, in uniform or out being fully in the fight, this film brings it home, with humour, sadness and reality. A real gem and for those who like modern history an absolute must.
