The orignal was sublime, I hope Crook can do it justice.

Heads up all, looks like they're running first series, S1 Ep1 10pm on BBC2 tonight.

I thought the description suggested it was the most recent series? Andy living with mother in law. Haven't watched it yet so not sure.

[sir humphrey appleby]

It's the third and final series being repeated at the moment.

FWIW, S1 and S2 are available on NetFlix.

In my current situation, that's like saying they are available on Titan, feasible, but it would take some time.

Caught it totally by accident. Always happy to watch any re-run of Detectorists. And that is probably one of my all time favourite episodes. Proper shivers down the spine TV when they find the hawk whistle.

Interesting documentary on Netflix about a raptured fuel tank and subsequent explosion on a Titan 2 missile as well

They're certainly coining it in!

Appropriate location though

I saw it listed fist time round ,but never bothered
My lad told me about it, and recommended it

Loved it
No music
no laughter track

lovely subtle gags esp the Simon and Garfunkel one

and Great casting.

Just starting S3 now

[silverfoxcc]

It is in the boxed set

[ChevyChase77]

Reminds me. I must visit Framlingham where it was filmed.

Yes! Thank you! One of my pedantry favourites. It's "boxed set" not "box set". Never thought I'd see someone get it right.

Is "box set" not one of those phrases that's now so commonly used that it's not considered incorrect any more? So many words and phrases in the English language come from mis-translation and misuse.
