Deep deep joy.


I love the way MC gets his series budget then spends it all on the first episode.

Love the Detectorists - absolutely favourite thing on telly from last couple of years. Such laid back and subtle comedy. Only discovered there was a new series when I noticed my box had helpfully recorded it withuot me knowing. What a beautiful and unusual ending to the first episode.

A Russell and Hugh spin off could easily be the 2018 Summer cinema blockbuster.
I could spend half an hour watching them drink Shelia's lemonade.

it is brilliant but once again shows the age range of NSC I cant imagine many youngsters liking it!

Who thought he was going to get the cheese out of the bin for his daughter's cheese on toast?

Great idea but I was a bit disappointed with the final scene - shrinking trees to a size they would have been 20 years or so ago didn't portray 'time travel' across the centuries. Super programme, mind.

Just watched last night's episode 5... it had everything I love about this program. I hope the next episode isn't the last.

This programme is without question the highlight of my week,

A beautifully crafted, written, acted and filmed gem. All the pieces are falling into place and I have my hopes hanging on a perfect ending to this fantasic and whimsical journey with Andy and Lance next Wednesday.

I think I will genuinely shed a tear when this series ends. Such a fantastic show.

I usually do and don't see why this one would be any different.

Brilliant happy end, leaving you with a warm fuzzy feeling that everything is all right with the world.










Perfect escapism, from a far from all right world.

Consistently the best comedy on UK TV for quite a while - and something (I suspect) that the Americans will never buy from us.

Simply wonderful, and a great ending.

There's a fair few of these on YouTube:-

Not my rag of choice, but I couldn't have worded it better.
