Bonus Episode 44: A Sulk-Off With Worzel (Worzel Gummidge: Pilot + Christmas Special)

As we have all foreseen, Julie has taken over the show again for our 2025 Holiday special and has done her best to find something actually Christmas-y this year. Digging into the depths of the strange children shows of the UK, we came across the wonder that is Worzel Gummidge. We tried to make due by just watching the pilot from series 1 and the Christmas special from series 3, with very mixed results.  Join us as we discuss the likelihood of both Worzel and the Crowman murdering children, Anthony wondering if this could be where Adam Sandler got some inspiration, is this really as unhinged as Julie anticipated it being, and could this whole story be potentially set in a post-apocalyptic world? Julie also wonders if she’ll ever get out of the basement after Anthony’s unenthusiasm of this entire experience.
