Detectorists tv series - Three seasons on ACORN tv

[Baitball Blogger]

LOVE IT! Love the premise of ordinary people wrapped up in a metal detecting hobby where they claim to be searching for historical significance out of ordinary metal objects that they find, but secretly want to find that one treasure that will change their lives. And all the while, the t.v. show develops the every day treasures around these sad sacks, in the people that make a difference in their lives.

The usual development of odd British characters is a huge plus.

2. Just started the Christmas special episode, and sorry to see that the synopsis

suggests that the treasure isn't going to protect him from misfortune.

6. Diana Rigg of "The Avengers"

Glad she is now a Dame...what a great actress..

"The Avengers" one of a very few shows we were able to watch from Britain here in the US

7. Seriously, I would sneak out of bed and crawl into my parent's room where I would watch the Avengers

leaning against the foot of the bed. I don't know how I wasn't caught. Perhaps because my parents were already asleep. The show would air late on a school night. Maybe ten, felt like eleven.

Ruined my sleep patterns for life.

8. Maybe they knew you were there?

There were worse things kids could do!
