News Corp is a network of leaders in the world of diversified media, news, education and information services.

And this year he’s back for Christmas. In this episode, Worzel will encounter Saucy Nancy, the figurehead of a wrecked ship. Here’s who will play the bad mouthed character. . .

Saucy Nancy was played by none other than the legendary lady Barbara Windsor in the original Worzel Gummidge.

She starred on the original kids show alongside famous actors of the day, including Billy Connolly, Bill Maynard, Joan Sims, and Lorraine Chase.

Dame Barbara is best known for her appearances in the carry-on series and for the role of landlady Peggy Mitchell in EastEnders with her famous line: « Get out of my pub! »

Mackenzie Crook is the writer, director, and star of the reboot of the classic kids’ show.

The Sun asked Mackenzie if he thought the hour-long program was an appropriate tribute to Dame Barbara.

He replied, « Definitely yes. She played the original version and many people will remember it fondly.

The actor also commented on the episodes: “I’m excited and grateful to be doing a new episode of Worzel Gummidge for everyone after a difficult year.

« We’re leaving Scatterbrook for this story, on a day trip to the ocean, some fresh air and some open space. ”

Actress Shirley, best known for her role as Moaning Myrtle in the Harry Potter films, is famous for her high-pitched, child-like voice.

She has also appeared in films such as Topsy-Turvy, Wilbur wants to kill herself, Frozen, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, Anna Karenina and the Netflix film Okja.

You may also recognize Shirley from the BBC show ABC Murders, where she played Rose Marbury.

She will appear alongside India Brown as Susan, Thierry Wickens as John and Vanessa Redgrave as Peg.
