    Has anyone else been enjoying the gentle comedy of 'Detectorists' on BBC4?

    BBC Four - Detectorists

    Yes! We love it, though aren't up to date with all the episodes yet. Must watch on catch-up.

        Oh, brilliant! Tone-wise it has a lot in common with my fave comedy of all time, Rev (with Tom Hollander). Did you ever see that?

            Just looked and it has a few of my favourites in it (inc. the inventor from Balamory)

              Rev is wonderful IMHO - really funny, but dark and painful in places and often ending with a scene that's genuinely moving. How the writers and actors achieve such a wide emotional range in just half an hour is beyond me! Hope you enjoy it if you do decide to give it a go!

                        The Lemonade scene last night was a work of sheer genius. Yes, same here right up my street.

                            Wasn't expecting the colourful language from Lance last night.

                            Still, what a great show.

                              I missed it last night and have been banned from watching it without OH present as we both love it. Shame there are only 6 episodes, I think it's brilliant.
