Combine Harvester - I can remember seeing them perform it on TOTP at the time.

Can’t vote for Blackbird, they play that on the PA at Ashton Gate after a home defeat, I’ve heard it too frequently in recent years.
They play Drink Up... when we win. Oddly I can’t remember what they play when we draw!

Here’s a trailer for ‘Confessions From a Holiday Camp’ (1977)
Which may seem completely random but The Wurzels sung the opening title song - Give Me England. It’s featured in this trailer which is for the American release.

They also featured in the Welsh gore comedy Evil Aliens (2005).
here’s the combine harvester scene:
They may have done songs for other films but those are the ones I know of off the top of my head.

Fingers crossed for next weekend eh, Harry? Definitely, we owe Essex one for last years finale and their sneaky reporting of the pitch. Not too confident though, Essex are way more experienced, but you never know.

"....down to Barrow Gurney, to see my brother Ernie".... it has to be 'Drink Up Thy Zider'

Are The Wurzels the English equivalent to German Volksmusik? Hmmm, sort of I'd say.
