Detectorists: BBC4
Discussion
Absolutely love this programme.
Recently watched them all again in order plus the Christmas special. As has been mentioned, well worth a second viewing as there are so many subtleties that are easy to miss first time around.
Was actually gutted once I get to the end of series 3 and had no more of them to watch. Real quality like this comes along quite rarely.

Thanks for the eads up there is a series 3. I reached the end of series 2 a year ago and I felt lost TBH.
Iplayer search tonight!
Yes there is a third series, the weakest of the three but still better than most shows and one particular tiny moment of the best acting ever captured on film Iplayer search tonight!

which part in particular was the high point for you ?Loads of high points for me, but one that had me properly laughing was them all drinking Sheila's home made lemonade... the facial expressions
Can't recall which series it was in, but it's a classic moment. Always loved the Sheila character, the 80's hairdo, the make up, even her choice of drink when they were in the pub. Brilliant stuff!

In the pub beer garden when Sheila seems to remember a child.
When Varde proposes to Louise
When the trees fall away and the landscape changes.
The hawk whistle
Lance finding gold
All superb !
the trees changing and time passing was excellent.
after reading about the series on here we watched every episode over two evenings
the first ended at 01:45am, such a good show.
I have a metal detector but have not used it for many years, I recall finding musket balls and various small
pieces all in fields near Lavenham in Suffolk.

Magic.
Late to this party... just binged all 3 series and the special.
Absolutely brilliant, gutted there wasn’t more series made that I missed.
Lovely writing, good characters well acted. Funny without the need to be over the top.
It could easily carry on for another series, but like many great shows would probably benefit from being left where it was and appreciated as it was.

Missed this first time round and just finished binge watching all 3 series over the past few evenings.
What a wonderfully written and acted show. It's subtle, heartwarming, touching comedy at its very best..
I envy those who've not yet seen it.
A pint of numbers duly raised to Mackenzie Crook for a job extremely well done.

I live where Detectorists is set - near Danbury (Danebury). It's nice to see Essex represented in a more accurate manner rather than the usual TOWIE crap.
Some of it was also filmed in Upminster where I grew up and used to play as a kid. The memories of that only added to the joy of the programme.
Toni's canal boat is still moored at Paper Mill Lock in Little Baddow.

Is it not set in Suffolk? Some of it was also filmed in Upminster where I grew up and used to play as a kid. The memories of that only added to the joy of the programme.

So Essex is standing in the neighbouring county.
They still need to find that ship burial. Come on season 4!
