While Tucker and his mates have aged considerably over the past three decades, Sue and John have skipped through the years largely untouched by time. Scatterbrook was fantasy, but not too fantastic, it still feels like every country lane might take us there and thats why we keep looking. The series' main strength was it's robust casting, every bit part was covered by a brilliant character actor and every guest star really was a star. Charlotte and Jeremy would eventually meet tragedy and obscurity respectively, but they had already done enough to be remembered forever. Worzel Gummidge proves that we never really grow up, we just forget.
