Stephen-H Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Just finished this season absolutely brillant feel good light hearted comedy. Not normally one to binge watch a series but found myself glued to it well worth a watch if anyone is after something to watch on a drizzly night 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilts#Dave Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Cracking show…..watched them all including the latest special they did. Very feel good light hearted watching as you say, loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Is it not still on the BBC then?! We love it. Absolutely brilliant from first episode to last and the Christmas special last year was superb. Wonderful show. I think McKenzie Crook is extremely proud of it - and rightly so. He's even taken up detecting because of it. In his research he found the detecting community so rich and warm that he couldn't resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirokuMK70 Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 I love detectorists. English comedy at its best. It wouldn't have got made anywhere other than here. 2 minutes ago, chrisjpainter said: Is it not still on the BBC then?! We love it.

countryman Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Love this series, it’s so nice to see that there is still talent out there to write and act, I hope he does more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRINITY Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Absolutely brilliant show, watched them all twice. By the way I also have a soft spot for the Christmas Specials that McKenzie writes and plays Worsel Gummage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddoakley Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Watched it all a couple of weeks back and really surprised myself that I enjoyed it. Didn't expect to. Have recommended it to someone just this evening and the theme tune/song is in my playlist. Edd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldypigeonpopper Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 Hello, as a long time detectorist now retired 🤔🙄😁, I enjoyed watching 👍, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NatureBoy Posted July 30, 2023 Report Share Posted July 30, 2023 Great series! Recommend the pub. Had some good times in there over the years and Fram in general. Shame developer's are cashing in on it and raping the town where filmed and other villages in this part of Suffolk. We now have new development companies, estates close's and muse's named after the fictional town in the series. Pitched as "Crafted homes".? Some sites involve rescaping and shifting/trucking hundreds of tones (800+) of earth out before a single footing is dug. It's out of control and no one seems to care. Any opposition gets pushed through on appeal. And i say this having lived and worked in the trades here all my life. They getting away destroying loads of habitat, meadow and farmland. The villages and wildlife with it. Right homes in the right place! Not happening! . . . . . . . We also get more chancer/nighthawkers about.

powler Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Absolutely loved this programme, very well written and acted, even making me think of getting a detector esp as the brother in law found gold with his last week, no idea if he did the dance though.
